Singer Cher has called on her fans to boycott a major retailer over its gun sales following the Connecticut elementary school shooting last week.

The Second Amendment has been called into question following the killings of 20 children and six adults by suspected gunman Adam Lanza at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

Politicians are now calling for an overhaul of firearm laws to make it harder for people to buy semi-automatic assault weapons, but sales of guns have risen dramatically since the tragedy, with leading retailer Walmart reportedly running out of stock in five states.

Now singer and Democratic Party supporter Cher has urged her Twitter.com followers not to shop at the store over its policy to continue selling firearms in the wake of the school massacre.

In a series of posts, she writes, "Everyone Should Boycott Wall Mart (sic)! They R (sic) Biggest Seller Of Guns In U.s ! Pick Up Milk, pick Up Bullets. Shop (rival retailer) Target...

Sonny and Cher lost their brains when Sonny died. I still think Sonny Bono was off’ed by the democrat left or by republican elites. He was doing too well in congress. He was a voice of reason in a sea of idiots.

Were Cher’s fans really going to buy a gun at Walmart to begin with?

It is becoming quite evident that Sonny must not have been sorry to see her go.

Will Wal-Mart survive the loss of all 12 of them?

I'm seeing a Chick-Fil-A moment here.

She whines, the 50 or so of her followers that even know what Walmart is stop going, more than made up for by the thousands of people who will now go there just to spite the skank!

Seems like she did a video writhing around on a 16 inch gun on the
Missouri.

Our local sporting goods store ran out of hi-caps and almost all black rifles the past few days.

They have a good buy on a S&W performance shop 627 w/ 8 round cylinder.

That she believes she is influential is a joke.

I saw one of those Performance center 8-shots with a scope and a laser/light combo. On top of that, it had THAT DAMN INTERNAL LOCK.

Seriously, that thing had so much crap on it, I think it would go back in time if it hit 88 mph.

It was enough to give a revolver purist a seizure. I had to go look at my Colt Python to get back to my happy place.

Whenever I walk into a store or supermarket, I sense an impending punishment of music by Cher, Madonna, Beyonce, Mariah Carey or Whitney Houston.

WalMart is the largest seller of tapes and CDs. I suggest they immediately stop carrying Cher’s music, and pull it from the shelves.

i.e. boycott her right back. . .
