I always go to Target. Somehow the riff raff stay away from there. I went to the Walmart and I thought I had crossed the border into Mexico.

I've been to both. I prefer Target. I notice, no matter what the racial demographics of the shoppers at Wal-Mart and Target, Target rarely gets the underclass. Wal-Mart gets alot of underclass. I see it in the county I live in. Most of the Wal-Marts I've been too, it's trashy. Target, on the other hand, looks better.

I can extend this to fast food places. Nowadays, every McDonalds I've see over the last 2 years, it looks like crap. It attracts alot of underclass. Chick-Fil-A, on the other hand, the service is better, the people than dine there/get stuff to go present themselves better. I have never heard of fights taking place in Chick-Fil-A. I hear about it all the time in McDonalds.

All it seems to take is "non-whites" being involved in any negative situation to bring out a certain crowd's inner-skinhead. The perpetrators of the Maafa have no leg to stand on when discussing crimes and criminals...

Well, I guess that settles it. Can't argue with the hard core data you presented.

I stopped Shopping at Walmart for good on December 31st of last year. I do not miss it at all

Of course, I have had several haters complain along the way about the fact that I dislike Walmart
But
I am better off going to Target, or using Dollar General online with free shipping for household goods
Which, in my opinion, is even better, because I do not have to leave the house to buy paper towels.
There are better grocery stores nearby, KMart has all the inexpensive fishing gear I need, and if worse comes to worse, I have a good excuse to go to Bass Pro or Dicks for sporting goods (Like I need much of an excuse to go to Bass Pro)

I am far happier without Walmart in my life.

The thread is full of pages of people from around the country talking about how trashy Walmart is. Do you really need a scientific study on it? Get back to me when you start seeing regular news articles on brawls at Whole Foods...

So then, we as a society should just ignore crimes by minorities huh, lest we bring out our "inner skinhead". It dumb thinking like that that has allowed outrageous behavior like this to continue.

It appears you've went from one extreme to another. You, along with a few other posters to this thread can keep the snarky & thinly veiled racial comments. I said nothing about ignoring crimes. I spoke to intentions from a certain crowd. Hate speech is going to be called out when I hear it. That’s how it works…

I like the concept of Walmart.....great selection, decent quality and good prices.

But yeah, it can be quite a gross experience to shop at Walmart.........nasty customers and nasty employees.
