Comments on: Satan’s asshole strikes again. http://avanttrash.com/2008/03/26/satans-asshole-strikes-again/ Live from Hollywood: A little bit of blood, a little bit of glitter.

Wal-mart closed its store on 281 in Hastings and opened slightly down the highway a brand new Super Wal-mart. If that isn't awful enough, you'd think by the town's reaction that everyone just won a million dollars. The opening of Super Wal-mart was celebrated all through the village. Our high school band played for the grand opening, people roamed there lead coated, sweat-shop aisles for hours and my high school students decided it was the new "cool" late-night hang out. We don't have a Target in Hastings...in fact the only other discount stores we have are Dollar Tree and a sad K-Mart. There are (I'm not joking here) 5 other places to buy clothes here...yes I'm including the Goodwill and a consignment shop. I feel bad that Hastings folk don't have more to choose from...but come on, folks...Celebrating the birth of a wasteful, sexist, money hungry, small town crunching monster coming to town? Seems silly to me. Fuck you Sam. A few years ago I witnessed something truly frightening. Wal-mart closed its store on 281 in Hastings and opened slightly down the highway a brand new Super Wal-mart.

I'm ok with paying a little more for what I need at a locally owned grocery store in my neighborhood. If they don't have something I go to Target. Who, by the way, gives 5% of their income to charities. I quit shopping at Wal-mart about a year ago.
