New Poll Up

There’s a new poll up with the question:

“Due to Walmart’s recent alliance with anti-rights Mayor Michael Bloomberg, what will you do?”

There are three possible answers:

• I don’t shop at Walmart
• Stop shopping at Walmart
• Continue shopping at Walmart

I know some Walmarts already don’t carry guns, but assume for the purposes of the poll that they all do. The last question means you will continue to buy weapons and/or other goods from Walmart.

Any questions? Let me know in comments.

Anti-Rights Propaganda

Here’s a commercial from the Mayors Against All Illegal Guns. Interesting that they have video of all three major candidates saying they’d support closing something called a “Gun Show Loophole”, whatever that may be. What I don’t get, is how anyone who professes to support the second amendment can justify voting for any of these clowns. Not to mention the anti-rights mayors, including Bloomberg, who are members of this citizens disarmament cabal, and who star in this commercial. Ironically, the members of this groups are either rich enough to hire their own body guards, or have them provided to them free by their subjects. I think they’d rethink their position a little bit if the situation were reversed.

Another reason not to buy a gun at Wal-Mart

Wal-Mart to film gun sales in bid to fight crime

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wal-Mart Stores Inc, the world’s largest retailer, unveiled plans on Monday to film its gun sales in the United States and create a computerized log of purchases in a bid to stop guns falling into the wrong hands.

Wal-Mart, which is the largest seller of firearms in the United States, agreed a 10-point code, which also includes rigid inventory controls, with a bipartisan coalition of Mayors Against Illegal Guns led by New York’s Michael Bloomberg.

The retailer said it will develop a first-of-its-kind computerized crime gun trace log that will flag purchases by customers who have previously bought guns later recovered in crimes.

“Wal-Mart currently uses a strong point of sale system,” said J.P. Suarez, senior vice president and chief compliance officer of Wal-Mart. “This code is a way for us to fine-tune the things we’re already doing and further strengthen our standards. We hope other retailers will join us.”

The Responsible Firearms Retailer Partnership is designed to strengthen the points in the gun purchasing system that criminals have exploited in the past, Wal-Mart and the Mayors Against Illegal Guns said.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, 46 percent of its criminal gun trafficking investigations involved cases in which someone who is not legally allowed to purchase a firearm does so through the use of a proxy, known as a straw buyer.
