GA school children safe from gunman and taken by bus to Walmart . . . which sells guns.

[rightsideout]

Oh, the irony.

[onehandle]

1. First thing I thought. nt

[rightsideout]

5. Glad I'm not the only one thinking that. LOL.

Wouldn't it be even more ironic if the gunman got his ammo and supplies from that same Walmart?

Be safe out there with all the gun nuts wandering around. LOL.

2. Another school shooting. Sponsored by the NRA.

3. Taken there to arm them?

Honestly, given the few extremist gunners here and more elsewhere, I wouldn't be surprised at that "solution" being promoted.

4. Even if Walmart didn't sell guns, why there?

[Sissyk]

6. It's the closest large parking lot

by the school for parents to come pick up their children, maybe?

[rightsideout]

7. To be reunited with their parents

I guess the school grounds was too hectic with all the activity so they bussed the children to the Walmart which has more space.

8. It's not like they are all going on a shopping trip. They are trying to reunite parent and child.

9. Did you know...

the survivors of the Titanic were brought to NY on another ship?

[Boom Sound 416]

14. ...

[sarisataka]

16. I doubt any of the Titanic survivors

want to refuse that ship and try to swim instead.

Walmart provided a well known location for a save haven to reunite families. What they sell or do not sell is immaterial

[Boom Sound 416]

17. Ahh! Sorry couldn't tell which way you were going

[NCTraveler]

10. Glad they had a good safe place to bring the children....

and get them back together with their parents. Does Walmart sell anything besides guns? Did they march the children to the gun section for educational purposes.

Be thankful for the children's safety.

11. They won't be allowed to purchase firearms.

not even BB or airsofts much less actual firearms. I'd bet most will go homes with firearms...

[Demo_Chris]

12. Survivors of car crashes are often transported to hospitals in an Ambulance...

The horror. The horror.

[shenmue]

13. I remember how they refused to sell certain CDs with songs about violence

And they sold guns then too.

[Boom Sound 416]

15. They also sell

First aid kits
Water and snacks
Have accessible bathrooms
And have a big ass parking lot

[winter is coming]

18. Nice of them to give the kids a ride to work.

[Phentex]

19. Walmart just handed out snacks and water...

The parking lot is a designated area for picking up the kids.
