Someone posts the thread
dumb ****s like you come along and insist on a political media narrative
dumb ****s like you then assert the victim was a thug
dumb ****s like you then show everyone how ****ing dumb they really are

Rinse and repeat.

Sounds like a colorable claim against Wal-Mart for negligence as well.

if a cop shot him then he must have deserved it /CP

If you are a cop, you can shoot anyone and get a paid vacation, unless you shoot another cop.

The cheap BB guns have boxes. The Air Softs do not (or they have very minimal cardboard on them).
Gotta be the area then. Here air softs are in vacuum formed plastic hanging from a peg board display.

"Honey, I've been thinking... We should take a vacation."

"Alright! I'll shoot somebody tomorrow!"

It would more likely be the manufacturer. BUT...Wal Mart has tremendous influence over the packaging of the products that they sell. I don't think you could find them liable but they could be proactive and demand changes.

Why would they demand changes? Look at all the free advertising they're getting!

Wow, no shit? The higher end pellet rifles like the Beeman break over types that shoot >1000 FPS are on the shelves in boxes with the bb guns and air soft. The real guns are in a locked cabinet.
Shotgun shells are out in the open but high powered rifle, hand gun, and since they’re so scarce the .22 LR’s are under lock and key. Store help is required to get them.
Our real ones are behind a large glass counter display, and then the shelves have glass covers as well, so you can't just grab them off the shelf. The high end BB guns are right next to that with no counter and no glass cover over the shelves.

Ok, that makes more sense.

We do have some in blister packs. They are put in between the kiddy ones and the higher end ones.

No defense. And people wonder why people are trusting cops less and less

Cops and prosecutors are on the same team. Expecting a prosecutor to fully go after a cop like they would a non-cop is like expecting one teammate on a football team to narc on another.

First, that's bullshit. He wasn't pointing it at anyone.

Second, unless they caught him in the act of pointing it at someone, there still no justification for shooting him. They managed to arrest John Holmes even though he had literally just went on a killing spree, but they can't arrest this guy?

The man was murdered. It wasn't his fault. It wasn't WalMart's fault. The only people here who are to blame are the gutless pigs that shot him down in cold blood.
