2. The point always missed in this story.

The toy guy is an item sold at WalMart.

The customer picked up an item from the shelf in the toy department and was shot for carrying it around in the store. "Brandishing" the weapon could be the simple result of shifting other purchased items he was carrying.

But, never forget, he didn't bring the item into the store (a la second amendment nuts)...he just picked something up that was offered by WalMart for sale.

Nobody can bring this kid back but WalMart needs to be held to some degree accountable for creating the situation.

Opps - I forgot - they're a corporate citizen. Laws that apply to you and me don't apply here. Nevermind.
