Being forced through the checkout line (AKA: Why you shouldn't shop at Walmart)

My local Walmart on Thanksgiving was forcing everyone, product or not, through the checkout line. Have you seen anything like this?

Haven't watched the video, but they have these little automatic gate things at the entrances now that go beeeeep when you try to exit through them. I did recently exit one without buying anything, and nothing bad happened to me when I walked through the checkout area.

So someone picks the busiest shopping day to take a baby and not buy anything,
and then complain about Walmarts crowd control.
Not to mention illegally videotaping on private property.

I wasn't even at Walmart. They made me come in and walk through the checkout line. It was humiliating.

They tried making everybody at one of my local ones go through the long checkout line that snaked through the store regardless of what you were buying. Instead I went to the electronics register and asked if I could pay for my items there, got everything scanned, paid and left. Then I came back in for more of the same item (crystal Dualshock 4's for PS4 for $11 WheeWhee). I bought EIGHT (of the 16 they had in stock) of them.LMAO

That's why God gave you an anus, Baby Ruth was made in that shape for a reason.

If you also weigh 387 pounds, you must've fit right in at Walmart. nod

To be fair, a lot of people living in poverty have never been exposed Unsure accustomed to middle or upper class lifestyles or teachings.
