BREAKING!! WALMART CAVES to liberal pressure on GUN CONTROL… [again]

Walmart is showing how cowardly corporations are in the face of small but loud campaigns by far left loonies.

From the Hill:

The nation’s largest retailer announced Wednesday it will hike the minimum age for firearms purchases to 21 years of age.

“We take seriously our obligation to be a responsible seller of firearms and go beyond Federal law by requiring customers to pass a background check before purchasing any firearm,” the company said in the statement. “The law would allow the sale of a firearm if no response to a background check request has been received within three business days, but our policy prohibits the sale until an approval is given.”

Walmart also announced it would remove items from its website “resembling assault-style rifles, including nonlethal airsoft guns and toys.”
“Our heritage as a company has always been in serving sportsmen and hunters, and we will continue to do so in a responsible way,” the company said.

GOOD. That means gun fun enthusiasts will have to go elsewhere and maybe help out smaller stores who need the cash and aren’t willing to cave to silly campaigns from the far left.

Remember that they’ve already stopped selling AR-15s from their stores, so this isn’t the first time they’ve shown they have no spine.
