Wal-Mart Shooting

A loaded pellet gun was on the shelves of a Wal-Mart in Richland Town Centre. It is a good thing that is was only a pellet gun and not a shotgun. The women was shot by her friend, what a nice friend right. I have a few questions? Why was there a gun on the shelves and second WHY WAS IT LOADED? I have nothing against guns my family has two in the house, and we practice gun safety and there are no kid wondering around. At our Wal-Mart the toy section is right next to the hunting section, any kid could have walked up to the pellet gun and have really hurt themself or another person. I know it is just a pellet gun, but imagine it could have been a load rifle. The manager at the Wal-Mart did not comment, because they knew they messd up. When are they going to learn??? Why do so many people shop there is they mess up so much?

Everyone makes mistakes. This one particular walmart, out of millions, made a pretty big one. I'm sure something will happen, and now the attention in this area will increase in order to prevent things like this from happening again. Prevention in any circumstances never occurs until a mistake is made.
