In reply to the discussion: Complained to Safeway today about the number of gun porn magazines they stock. [View all]MichaelF.
(1 post)Clearly Safeway cares more about the almighty dollar. I too find it incredibly insensitive, however I have to ask...what about the gun movies? I was a Safeway shopper, until the Giant nearby Got self check outs, now I only go into Safeway if Giant is out of what I need.
I saw several of what I would call glorified killing magazines, then walked around some more and was even more shocked by the violent films they sell as entertainment. If you think the magazines are bad, you should have seen the films for sale on the shelf with gratuitous gun violence.
I too asked to speak with a Manager who fed me the standard corporate lines. I really can't blame the Managwr though, after all most are gloried corporate talking heads who simply speak the corporate garbage that they are programed to say in response to such questions.
I just wanted to say, kudos to you for fighting the good fight. Keep it up. Hopefully more people will petition Safeway and others to follow suit and actually do something to benefit the communities they operate in.
Safeway, remove the "gun porn", in all forms. Books, magazines, film. Enough.
