Wal-Mart, Drag, and Discrimination

[j69reap]

I find this very offensive. Walmart has alot to answer for. Unfortunatly, most if not all police and law enforcement not only support, but encourage this kind of discrimaniton. If they are not calling those like me freaks, they are calling us criminals. Oh they care alright, they care about getting the rest of the world to see things as they do.

@starryparadise Consider following Dukes V Walmart that began around 2002.  Search for Betty Dukes complaint.

[lamourlupus]

According to Palmer F around 2007, his son Kevin who was in overall charge of Sam's Club security was let go because he commented that he did not support the homosexual lifestyle.

Walmartah Anita Bea Nuetered LOL!

i feel at walmart and broke my hip and there was no wet floor sign down and they are still fighting the medical bills then i am muslim and they refused to hire me hell discrimination

[queenedwinafromkanga]

I know that discrimination is serious stuff..

But have just seen a very funny video on YouTube added about 1 week ago. It's titled

Queens Christmas Message.

Look for the picture icon of the male Venus coming out of the shell.

the other title is

A Queen's Art Collection.

Just thought it may lighten things up a little.

Good luck to you all.

11/5/008 sale are up for wal mart.

[azdana]

I agree with those that say this is taken out of context. How does dressing in drag prove discrimination? Next thing we know, you'll be compiling a list of actors and comedians that have "dolled up" for a laugh and file a class action suit against them as well.

stupid american

[esoeso122]

Wal*Mart is making the USA poor.

[downwithderek]

Walmart fired a hardworker of 4 years without a reason or even a penny to feed the worker and his family. What will all the big-wigs say to the God on judgement day.

[Stacey9977]

I came across this from a link on myspace. This whole thing has been totally taken out of context. This is more or less a womanless pageant, which is all for fun and giggles. It looks as though you guys need to look up the meaning of the word discrimination before you post this stuff making you looks more like hopeless fools.

[scir91]

women are good for sex! everything else comes second.

[lastofthewild1s]

Lee Scott must not think women are even good for that. He looks like he craves man meat.

You can make any of those Wal-Mart suits crap themselves with one word: "UNION".

But then most Wal-Mart employees don't have the balls to go there.

"You can make any of those Wal-Mart suits crap themselves with one word: "UNION".

That's a pretty cold and simplified view of the employees.

[ness2728]

I'm sorry, but, can you say "taken out of context"?

[Bytesmiths]

I'm sorry, but can you say, "Don't joke about serious things." What if the Mall*Wart CEO were up there telling racial jokes in the context of making a business point?

The fact that they think they can joke about patting female employee's asses means they don't take sexism serious -- probably like ness2728.

[stillheretoday]

There will be no place,for these low-lifes to hide.When the Jews come looking for them.The walmart scum will say,something like,we didn't know that China,was building offensive weapons,that could only be used to attack Isreal,or America.

[LovingFilmmaker]

if Wal-Mart laughs at themselves, along with everybody else, they win the prize... the Last Laugh, or perhaps a $100 gift card for, where else, Wal Mart? hee hee heee.....

[MESIII]

Fuck Low Class Wal Mart!

[Finianisback]

Me thinks it looks similar to TELUS Idol so it does.

[daufne]

The video is right on regarding the sexual discrimination that goes on at Wally World. I have seen it when unfortunately I was referred to them for a job! They do not care about women, men or anyone who works there! This company has the lowest human standards of any corporation. Once the discrimination is discovered, usually, that employee who discrimated is just transferred to another Wally World! Where's the justice in that? The corp. should be sued for libel, they do not care!

[jeshala]

Love the trailer trash that has stopped fucking their sisters long enough to post about how much they love Wally World.

Of course they love it, where else can they get meth supplies so cheap? Home-based enterpreneurs love Wally World!

[PFKNZ]

Wal-mart now own Asda in UK. Since then choice has become more limited, prices increased and queues have got longer. I don't usually shop there because they don't provide bike stands. This video shows the machismo sexism and homophobia that ruled the boardrooms of the 90's. The oversized breasts show what these guys really think with. I'll never look at an Asda price - pat on the bum, in the same way again!

[awagner615]

Oh come on lighten up. That video doesnt show what spirit this was done it. For all we know that was a demonstration at a sensitivity class on how walmart men should NOT treat women! For all we know after the pat on the butt it was stated that "you will be fired if you do this" and they used a guy so it wasnt being done to an actual woman. It also could have been a fashion show for a new line of clothing and they were making it fun. People make too much out of nothing.

[EastCoastSeaglass]

Is Walmart a CULT??

[IronSaucer]

So i dont get it. Is this video against women or for women? I don't get why they would be doing this..but it is funny though. And i have a friend whos dad is the manager of the wal mart where i live so ill have ot tell him about this. also people who shop at wal mart are "Wal-martians" =)

[ducatidave5]

Lot of neocon wal-mart supporters here. posters claiming they are un-offended women, and making the same lame comparisons to this and clinton...as usual. Yeah, you keep buying that china made crap and working for $8 an hour you redneck dummys...and then wonder why you can't afford to send your kids to college and why your gotta sell your house to pay for your heart bypasses.

[sacsusie123]

I believe you meant to say redneck "dummies"...

[johnmcd7]

Looks like another example of Hillary Clinton's "Do as I say, not as I'm paid!" blunders.

I can't understand how bluecollar, labor-supporting voters don't see through her high-paid hypocrisy!

[xDestroyer666x]

hahah this rules. I love Walmart.

[johnnyl321]

I hope the day will someday come, when we can shop in department stores that have clothing and goods actually manufactured in the United States that will be affordable by people in the United States. What was the last piece of clothing you purchased that said "Made in USA" ? With that being said, the above video is truly in bad taste. I can't believe that WalMart didn't sign a contract with Flagler so they couldn't release this kind of thing. Someone's getting a reaming real soon !!!

[ReinvestInAmerica]

With all the press, legal and labor organizations keeping a sharp eye out on Wal-Mart and their activities, you would think they take better care of their image. I guess they think it is better to deal with damage assessment than actually setting examples and being a leader in corporate America.

[287731678]

Women don't get why men think this is funny or okay. These are not high school kids-this is a business meeting - obviously designed for men by men. Poor judgment on somebody's part - if this is a portrayal of their apparel line-bad taste and poorly done!

[Licmycat]

Yes, well now u know. That 'lady' that waits on you in wally world may not be a 'lady' after all! LOL!

[Tatamina]

I love Wal-Mart Watch, but I think this is a shaky argument when this meeting was in 1995 (over ten years ago) and when it appears that they were just messing around and that it was just a joke. I think this should show more to the story, because this video doesn't show much evidence for me.

[markcruiser64]

this should be shown to the walmart associates at a monthly meeting. Let them REALLY know what the executives are like.

[tamraannthomas]

that was just sad for a number of reasons. and the worst thing? there are so many more reasons to boycott walmart that this video didn't even address. how we allow a company like this to exist is beyond me. i'll do my part and make sure that i never shop there!

[CountBezukhov]

Well, there is some apparent disdain of women evidenced by the caricatured "women's" movements. But I don't see anything more here than the puerile good ole boy sense of humor we rcall from Key Club skits in high school. But I'm boycotting Wal-Mart anyhow.

[GmaMullins]

Evidently you're male so this obviously doesn't bother you and the good ol' boys!

[CountBezukhov]

I have to admit, this is way down on my list of reasons to hate Wal-Mart. But I'm willing to be enlightened. Do you have more to add, or is this just aimed at insensitive men in general?

[cstubing]

I'm curious too, really.. I'm not trying to be difficult or combative.. why does this bother women so much? I agree that it's ridiculously unprofessional and juvenile... I'm just wondering what makes it so offensive to women?

[kkkarlie]

This doesn't offend me. [obviously a girl.]

I mean I've heard they are discriminating against women, but this doesn't even prove that they are.

And if they are, who cares? I don't care about people who discriminate anyone.

They don't matter.

[eflute]

extra creepy stuff here

glad I don't shop at Wal-Mart

[spookstering]

That is disgusting and walmart should be ashamed. Why don't they give the money they spent on that to the employees in a living wage and to the other actual needs of this world, like disaster, children's hospitals, fighting diseases, etc. I say, DON'T SHOP WALMART.

[padfootXcookieXhater]

Woah...that is just weird. I'm staying away from Lee Scott!

[EBentonville]

Wow!!! Looks like Lee Scott (smack-daddy) is at it again! Did you see that smile? That ain't the first booty he's slapped!

[markcruiser64]

So that is what the exec's are doing.

[hphater]

oh god men looking like women *shivers* what has wall-mart thinking!!!
