Wal-Mart to stop selling guns at one-third of U.S. stores

More

In a move that will most likely be appreciated by most Americans, Wal-Mart has decided to remove the sale of guns from its store shelves. Instead, it will stock sporting goods that more accurately reflect the community in which it operates. With the new U.S. sales head being all about customizing the Wal-Mart store experience to local flavor, this is no surprise most likely.

What Wal-Mart needs is more PR like this to at least "keep even" the bad PR it gets from hedgmoniously taking over local markets with ruthless power -- at least that is the way it's perceived. An old adage about "listening to your customers" can really come in handy sometimes, and we are glad to see Wal-Mart step up to the stage. Target, what about you?
