Mom Claims Walmart Refused to Print ‘Inappropriate’ Photo of Her Kid (girls, clothes)

As with most annoying rules and such, we can thank criminals.

Here it is the fault of pedophiles. Walmart does not want file copies of anything they could be responsible for later if misused by a perv employee.

They probably have a stricture against printing photos of exposed breasts and genitalia. Why would they specify "unless it has to do with breast feeding"? The employee who refused was doing his or her job, so I don't blame them.

I will note it's a bit hypocritical though. My local Walmart didn't having any problem selling the sadomasochistic sex novel Fifty Shades of Grey. In fact, it earned its very own display rack near the entrance. I guess the theory is, pictures are more dangerous than words in Walmartworld.

Or perv customers. When the police raid a home filled with kiddie porn, you can bet they're going to question anyone they can identify who printed it.

No. Women who cause a stink because not everyone wants to look at her breasts is shameful.

I REALLY hope we get to see the potty training photos of Junior dressed like Prince Charming.

Huh? Women aren't allowed to wear pink anymore without being called princesses?

Its not like she went to the Disney store and bought a costume, its a casual sundress.

It still looks a little creepy to me. I realize that she was trying to create some sort of 'mood' and a, "motherhood is wonderful" feeling, but she didn't quite pull it off.

Yeah I know, most people are fine with public breastfeeding, all the world round really, its just the vocal minority on the internet. Dunno why some people get upset about photos that they don't even have to look at. I wish I had a picture of my mum breastfeeding me, but I do have a picture from just after I was born, lying on her chest, can see her nipple but that doesn't bother me because to me its a really beautiful picture.

I do not have a problem with any of these pictures. It is just a woman feeding her child. It is too bad that pedophiles make Walmart feel it has to protect itself in this way.

I have honestly NEVER heard of a professional photographer giving away any photos they have taken for reproduction without receiving compensation, no matter how low grade they may have been.

Electronic rights to the photos may have been included in the package, but they aren't free.
