I was going to target for a while, but when they started to shove the same sex marriage stuff down our throats, I quite going there also. I do go to Wal*Mart at times, only because the wife forces me. About the only thing we buy there is food and some toiletries.

Walmart Apologizes After Booting Kids From Store For Singing ‘God Bless America’
September 13, 2012 1:25 PM



PEMBROKE PINES (CBSMiami) — Walmart has apologized to a chorus of students after they were kicked off store property Wednesday evening for trying to sing a patriotic song to honor the victims of 9/11.

According to Coconut Palm Elementary School Principal Terri Thelmas, the store manager gave her approval last week to bring the students to the store to sing a one-minute rendition of “God Bless America” inside the Walmart, located at Pines & Flamingo in Pembroke Pines.Around 7 p.m. Wednesday, the group of 75 students and their parents showed up and the manager-on-duty told them they were a “liability” and that the kids would not be allowed to sing.

So, the kids went outside the store to sing. That’s when things got ugly: the manager called Pembroke Pines police to have them removed from the property.

Thelmas said she didn’t understand why, on a day reserved for patriotism and reflection, Walmart was more concerned with lawsuits than exemplifying its commitment to the local community.

In a statement, Walmart told CBS 4, “We regret this happened and apologize to the students, parents, and the school for this experience. Unfortunately this was a situation of miscommunication and should have been handled differently. We are inviting the kids back to the store to help honor the victims and fallen heroes.”

There is no word as to whether or not the school accepted the offer.

Maybe your singing gives her a headache?

Thats all it takes. One bad apple (liberal democrat) manager w/o the common sense god gave him, to communicate with the other store manager who previously gave the principal and the students permission, to find out what the whole story was.

Yet another fine example from the party of "inclusiveness" and "tolerance". Now if they had been there to sing about the virtues of abortion on demand by preteens or parenting via gay marriage this whole "kicked off store property" thing might have been avoided.

I wonder if the off shift supervisor still has a job.

If I was the store manager, I would have fired him/her/it/Pat.
