Default Wall Mart to arm greeters.........WTF

I dont know if this is real or not, but I guess I dont blame them considering all the low lifes I have seen in their stores.

doesnt seem too true. seems more illegal since you would need a concealed weapons permit. plus the whole "shooting someone in the chest". that would be murder. doesnt matter if they claim self defense. the other person wasnt armed and wasnt threatening anyones life, besides the whole trampling thing... that would also mean that the walmart greeter could shoot anyone in "self defense"

I'm gonna use a saying I heard a lot in the Army. "Attention to detail"..... That said, look at everything else on that page and you'll see that it's all 100% bogus. It's a fake news site that likes to make fun of anything they can.

Not on private property - which every retail establishment in the US is. Also - strapped on the hip is not concealed.

btw - "CAP News" is a site like The Onion. Turn the P upside down and re-arrange the letters within the blue logo. Look familiar?

I despise Target! They donate a lot of money to anti smoking/ anti gun laws, etc..... Since I am a smoker and a gun enthusiast, I don't want my paycheck going to a store that bans what gets me thru life. lol....Ever notice Target doesnt sell beer, guns or cigs?

"Sometimes when a kid's yowling or acting up, I'll lift my shirt and show him the handle sticking out of my waistband" but i guess youre right it is on private property
