Walmart Now Requires All Shoppers To Wear Pants
BB via Instapundit
In a move that's being called "unprecedented tyranny," Walmart is now requiring all shoppers to wear pants in their stores.

Americans everywhere slammed Walmart for the move, saying it amounted to an infringement on our constitutional rights.

"I thought this was America," said one man as a greeter asked him to please put on some sweatpants or something before coming into the store. "It is my constitutional right to go into Walmart and shop for random stuff at 3 a.m. wearing nothing but some boxers and a giant Tweety Bird T-shirt I got in the '80s."

"Look, we don't think this is too much to ask," said a Walmart spokesperson. "Just throw on some sweats, pajama bottoms, whatever. This is for the health and mental safety of our employees. And for the love of God, take a shower once in a while, you know?"

Shirts will remain optional.

#2 Walmart requires ALL customers to wear masks in stores and Sam's Club starting Monday and will create a new role to enforce the rule as COVID-19 cases surges across the United States

#3 They're going to need to hire some hefty bouncers.

#5 Thought this was the Bee for certain. I went to Wal-Mart a couple of days ago. I don't recall whether I was wearing pants. Masks were required. There was only one door in or out and they were keeping track of how many shoppers were in the store at a given time. There were a lot of workers stocking shelves and many workers filling orders for curbside pickup. I tried to get someone to open one of the cabinets in electronics to no avail. Some customers had been waiting there for 1/2 hour and no one showed up. Not a very good way of doing business. No wonder people are being driven to Amazon.

#8 No worry. forget them and order home delivery. I have and I know many others will avoid shopping there. My son shops Dollar General and calls it his Walmart. Many of the men I talk with have expressed the same opinion. No longer provide a service place barriers to a pleasant shopping experience.

#9 The Walmarts in our area have been mandating this for months...surely 'cuz the guv'nah said so.

But I have other issues with Walmart. No joke/hyperpole: I went shopping this morning, and, front & center on a shelf was their brand of bread. Sell-by date was....July 3rd. Repeat, 07/03/2020. Another brand of bread was about a week past its sell-by date. It's not like these loaves of bread were stashed in the back somewhere...they were neatly arranged. Kudos to the visual merchandiser there.

#10 Out-of-date in any store is inexcusable. Inventory is pushed newest (back) to oldest (front) ...ALWAYS. One reason you have to check "use by" on bargain stuff
