1. do you have a link?

or are you being sarcastic

[upaloopa]

3. What's with this "do you have a link crap"?

A link means nothing! People are permitted to have an opinion.
I can post any kind of bullshit on the web and link to it. Does that make it fact! No!
Gunners do that. They create bull shit web sites and link to them as support for their bullshit ideas. The tea party does that too. Some wing nut says something on line and all the wing nuts link to it. What does that prove?

9. ah you are angry nt

[upaloopa]

18. No not angry. Just tired of the same old

discussion mechanics posted over and over in an attempt to win I don't know what.
If you disagree say why

[strawberries]

19. I don't disagree

I thought from looking at the pictures that walmart allowed the guns but not the shirts and it didn't make sense to me. I can be slow sometimes

[upaloopa]

20. Me too

I thought you wanted to disagree

4. What?...

I'm not being sarcastic. Walmart shut their stores down Monday over black people protesting the multiple murders of black boys by cops in Missouri. There were numerous arrests; at least 75 that I'm aware of.

The graphic is trending on Twitter.

On Edit: Changed 'yesterday' to 'Monday.'

5. Not being critical of you, just curious. Do you have a link to the '75' number? I had

read on various sites of 50 heroes arrested (including Dr. Cornel West and various clergy). Sadly, I cannot find a link the '50' number any longer nor can I remember where I read it (at least 2 places).

8. I'll see if I can find it. I saw it yesterday. ..nt

12. No worries and no big deal. I was following various livestream and

ustream accounts on Moral Monday, so I've been trying to update myself with information since then. The clergy demonstration\mass arrest (at the Police Dept headquarters) was incredibly moving.

[TeeYiYi]

15. I actually saw that number on Monday...

...as it was happening, but I don't remember which twitter feed.

Here's a link to a 'More than 50 arrests' story out of St. Louis.

10. ah ok, thanks nt

[badtoworse]

2. I think they were just concerned the store would get trashed and decided not to risk it.

[TeeYiYi]

6. There was no trashing going on...

It's just another example of blatant racist disparity in America; as if we needed another example.

13. If they were concerned the store might be trashed, waiting for it to start would have been foolish.

[KingCharlemagne]

7. Funny how white people brandishing guns (presumably with live ammo) didn't elict

that same concern, isn't it?

[strawberries]

11. I was thinking the same thing nt

[badtoworse]

14. How many violent protests have there been from "white people brandishing guns"?

[Hassin Bin Sober]

21. .

[ZombieHorde]

23. Ha!

Fun answer.

[LanternWaste]

22. I'd have the same concern should a group of armed men walk into a store...

I'd have the same concern should a group of armed men walk into a store...

However, I can certainly understand that many others may see that as no more benign than a group of unarmed protesters on a parking lot.

[aikoaiko]

16. I thought the protesters in Walmart were trying to get arrested per civil disobedience.

[joeglow3]

17. I think they were fearing this
