Fun With Guns: The People of WalMart Edition
WalMart Warning: If you hold a license to carry permit, you are allowed one free “accidental” discharge inside the store.
A woman pushing her newborn son in a shopping cart was injured in a freak shooting incident at a Walmart store in Columbus, Ind., according to local media reports.
Police say a .22-caliber pistol fell from the pants of Tony E. Ward on Saturday evening. When the gun hit the floor, it discharged. The bullet missed the baby, but hit a bottle of soda in the cart, then ricocheted and struck the woman in the upper arm — and it all happened while the local chief of police was in the store, according to WBIW.
A licensed gun owner shooting inside a WalMart can no longer be classified as a “freak” accident. It happened earlier this month in Phoenix. So, it’s pretty much a “regular” accident. Or, an accident you can count on.
They are either going to have to pay their people a decent salary or offer target practice for their customers.
Just another free, friendly service from the good people at WalMart. “Come on in and leave with free bullets in your butt.”
Thanks to Charles for the heads up.
