  1. So, red flag laws anyone? Yet another incident the pro 2A group will say was a prime example of how good guys with guns save the day, and that red flag laws wouldn't have prevented because of the mental health issues the attacker had. Yet another example of how that narrative ultimately proves false, and how more strict red flag laws and regulation (I seem to recall the words "well regulated" as being specifically mentioned in 2A) would have identified this individual as a potential threat to others and restricted access to deadly weapons until his mental health issues were treated. Isn't insanity doing the same thing over and over but expecting different outcomes? What direct benefit do lawmakers take away from inaction on this issue? None? If the definition of a stupid person is harming others with no direct benefit to oneself, doesn't this make those lawmakers fundamentally stupid? They are directly contributing to others being harmed without any benefit to themselves after all. I'm both engaged by this, and heartbroken. There's absolutely no reason, or justification for why our lawmakers continue to allow these incidents to occur.

  2. Wait until the internet gets shut down.

  3. They need to cut some prices.

  4. I’m so sick and tired of these medium ugly men! 😑 go to therapy ffs!

  5. we need to stop ignoring mental illness and mistreatment of employees

  6. Thank god it was not in tex were cops hide

  7. I had some employees boost me off a job,but I just went and got me another job,all 25 of them was fired the following monthπŸ™πŸ’• Sweet Justice!!!!They go around thinking people's lives are a game,but in the end they all……payπŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

  8. Now is the time for Walmart to lead the charge among big retailers in equipping better background and employee screening, armed floor security every shift inside and out, safe rooms for employees/customers ect.

  9. How in the world did HR allow this man to continue working after assaulting one employee? Let alone allow it to get it to 4 employees!!

  10. I'm 100% convinced that the public/school shootings are a band wagon that people are jumping on.

  11. As long as you show up for work walmart will let you get away with anything. Violent threats, sexual assaults sexual harassment, even harassment that carries over to the front porch of your home. It doesn't matter they will just shrug their shoulders and look the other way even if there is video proof! Been there experienced that…

  12. REAL LIFE HUMAN πŸ—‘

  13. What is it about Walmart?

  14. How come black shooters never make it out. But the white shooters always make it out… 🧐

  15. A black guy? I thought this was a white maga thing?

  16. Such a horrible incident!
    Makes you wonder what the shooter went through at work to commit such a violent act.

  17. Was he inspired by the Virginia Walmart shooter? πŸ€” These men are disgusting! There's no excuse for his actions. Mental health issues or not.

  18. Wth is wrong with people

  19. Never make the national news wire. Only need 1 guess as to why

  20. We need strong African control laws to stop this out of control African violence.

  21. Walmart is part of the Γ©lite with all these crisis actors

  22. Welcome to the new world my friends. You can be going out for a can of beans and your head ends up being a smashed kind of beans. You gotta be sooooo vigilant. Watch for these weirdos.

  23. So you assault multiple people and you can still legally purchase a gun. Nope, nothing wrong with that.
