Id got checked?

So Walmart is creating both video and electronic database of all gun sales.
Looks like Walmrt is "getting out of the gun business", whether they want to or not.

You can choose to buy there or not. According to Walmart, they're only sharing information with the government in case the firearm is used in a crime. While the 4th Amendment is in place, the gubmint certainly can't order them to turn over all gun purchase records and video. I won't buy there because I don't like the database idea in case some day we DON'T have the 4th Amendment. That should happen right after we lose the 1st and 2nd Amendments.

One more reason I never have nor ever will spend a dime at Walmart.

Just seemed odd to me. One of the many reasons why I usually order my stuff online.

"J.P. Suarez, the chief compliance officer for Wal-Mart Stores, appeared with outspoken gun control advocate Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York to announce the changes at a gathering of Bloomberg's group Mayors Against Illegal Guns"


Anyone with an ounce of common sense can see how moronic that "pairing up" is!!

Bloomberg is so full of himself, he requires 7 armed guards whenever he is out in the open!!  What's he afraid of!!??

Some day when you reach old fart status you will wish someone checked your ID

Why would anyone even enter a Wal-Mart store, let alone purchase anything from them?
Pay a few extra dollars and support a local business.
With the tax breaks and corporate welfare, Wal-Mart costs taxpayers' money.
Never mind how they treat employees.

Bingo...and WalMart will not be getting any money, image or data from me...so they are losing out on my business. ( I have purchased base guns to build on from there due to lower prices)
I suspect that I'm not the only one.  They might find that its not profitable to carry firearms on lowering sales volumes and they get out of the gun business that way...involuntarily.
