What the hell is the matter with people? Now this could have been anyone, a customer, a worker, etc.....Shortly before 7 p.m. Sunday at the Washington Township store, a male voice calmly announced: "Attention Wal-Mart customers: All black people leave the store now."

Well, Lets see how much money Sharpton and Jackson extorts out of them. They've been really quiet lately. I'm sure their coffers are getting low.

Would this be a problem if they asked all the white people to leave?

It sounds like something my friends would have done when they were in their teens. They loved to say stupid stuff on the Meijer intercom.GoChiefs wrote: I'd say it was a young customer fucking around.

To people who hate Wal-Mart for being too capitalistic, any little thing that can be turned into anti Wal-Mart propaganda is put out there. I tend to agree that someone unauthorized to do so got ahold of the store PA system and made that pronouncement as a joke. A very bad tasteless joke, but nonetheless, a joke. I will continue to patronize Sam Walton's shrine to free enterprise and capitalism. I can't understand why Conservatives hate Wal-Mart. If there was ever the perfect example of American initiative and free enterprise, I can't think of a better example than Wal-Mart. Aren't they still anti-union also? My God. It's Conservative heaven!!!!

Conservatives hate it for that reason. The embodiment of what they believe is Wal-Mart.
