Walmart Selling Black Lives Matter Shirts with ‘Bulletproof’ on Them
Breitbart ^ | 12/16/16 | Lana Shadwick

Walmart is selling Black Lives Matter clothing and other items amid calls to designate the movement as a hate or terrorist effort. The retailer has banned sales of items bearing a Confederate flag, and an “All Lives Matter” bumper sticker saying it was “offensive.” Some of the Black Lives Matter clothing items also have the word “Bulletproof” on them. A search on the huge retail corporation’s website shows a wide assortment of clothing and other items bearing the text “Black Lives Matter,” and there is even a Black Lives Matter monthly pocket planner for sale. The retail giant recently faced media controversy when three of its employees in Georgia refused to bake a peace officer a cake for his retirement. Breitbart News reported in late September that the police officer’s daughter showed the bakers a design that said “Blue Lives Matter” with a blue line through the middle of the cake. Employees said it was racist. Her father was retiring after 25 years of service. A spokesman for the company later apologized for the incident. In June of 2015, Walmart had to apologize after one of its stores in Louisiana baked a cake decorated with an ISIS flag after it had refused to make one bearing a Confederate flag.

Even if they were made of Kevlar, which they are not, they wouldn’t be bulletproof.

Pistol rounds are stopped by Kevlar.
Rifle rounds go right through Kevlar.

Years ago, the Coast Guard had to change terminology from Life Jacket/Life Preserver to Personal Flotation Device because of fears of legal consequences of the former term over-promising. It seems the same principle could apply here. Walmart lawyers be forewarned.

Life Jacket/Life Preserve I suppose people were shocked to learn that you had to put the device on in order for it to work.

I’ve never heard of ‘little trick’? Did you mean ‘lil gun’ gunpowder?

I shoot Sierra 210 gr JHC over 26gr H-110

It will cure their problems, whatever they may be.

I saw a BLM shirt being worn at a restaurant last week. I almost left

I take it you mean worn by an employee?
