Now if it was a prepaid debit card, or something along those lines, I might, I stay clear of Walmart .
Too many shootings, violent activity at the one closest to  me !! :o

I read you loud and clear Bob. I practice my 2nd Amendment rights but there is a time and a place for everything. Walmart is not the time or place, Just hmo

The lower economic range of residents shop there .
An estimate of  about 60 % of the customers there are on public assistance, welfare, food stamps, etc ........
I only go in there for  Mobil 1 oil and Prestone anti-freeze for my cars, at best, once a year .

It is amazing how they can be on government assistance for food, housing, and healthcare, yet still have $$ to spend on smokes, booze, and ammunition.

I see what you mean although when I was in Walmart  a few years ago nobody got shot so it wasn't so bad but that would have been either in Canada or New England.

Add to the equation here in the southwest part of the US, illegal, or undocumented immigrants that live here, a large criminal element  from Mexico and central America thrown in for good measure  !!!!
