This happened Saturday morning. I went to my Walmart to purchase some WWB 9MM. When I asked the clerk for it, the smirking 18-yo kid said "I need to see your pistol license".
When asked why, he said it was the store policy on all handgun ammo purchases.
I was not happy.
I flashed it at him, too fast for him to read it, but fast enough that he knew what it was. I asked him "What if I had a 9MM carbine?" he didn't understand the question. I was in a hurry so I paid and left.
I am going to be following up with a manager of the store. I am looking for any ideas you guys have on valid points why they should change their policy.
Please no "If you don't like it, don't shop there. . ." I WANT to shop there, but I ALSO want to present some rational reasons why they should change the policy.
My ideas so far:
- The obvious 9MM carbine angle
- MYOB
- Walmart's Liability by enacting a policy that enables unscrupulous Walmart employees to amass a list of addresses of gun owners
If you have any points to add as to why this is a bad policy for WalMart to have, please add here.
Note:
- This will NOT be a walmart-bashing thread, or a NY bashing thread for that matter
