St Louis Walmart Locations Pulled Ammunition From Shelves, Fearful Of Black Protesters
Several Walmart stores in the St. Louis area have pulled ammunition from the shelves following recent protests. It wasn’t because of the St. Louis County police officer who carried a shotgun during a traffic stop involving Ferguson protesters. It wasn’t because of police shootings, or because of gun violence, but because of Ferguson protesters.
KMOV reports:
Monday night, demonstrators made their way into Walmart locations in Maplewood, Ferguson and Bridgeton, forcing the stores to close while several arrests were made.
On Wednesday afternoon, the empty shelves at Maplewood looked like there had been a mass purchase of ammunition. But according to an employee, it was locked up in the back.
“I can see why they would think that would be a concern if someone did break in in mass and loot the place and steal ammo,” said shopper Tim Casey.There were no reports of looting on Monday, but Walmart said it was a taking a precaution.
“If there is a history of violence and looting and other activity that are going on or things that are putting associates and customers at risk—then yes, decisions can be made based on those circumstances,said Walmart spokesperson Brian Nick.
Why aren’t Open Carry activists fighting for Ferguson residents’ right to arm themselves?

St Louis is a racist city in a racist Red State. That’s the truth and anyone that’s ever lived there knows that. It seems to work both ways, but the white folks in Missouri are redneck, Confederate, Tea Party nuts.
