SMART MOVE BY WALMART – AT 10:23 A.M. ET:   Alert police organizations have put the heat on Walmart, and Walmart has done the right thing.  From AOL:

Walmart has said it would pull controversial clothing from its website after receiving a complaint from a police organization, reports CNN Money.

According to a national Fraternal Order of Police, or FOP, Twitter account, Chuck Canterbury, the group's national president, sent a letter on Tuesday to the retailer's CEO, Doug McMillon, about what he called "offensive shirts and sweatshirts with the slogans 'bulletproof' and 'black lives matter.'"

The request goes on to state, "I understand that these are third party sales and not Walmart products, but I am concerned that allowing these articles of clothing to be sold in this way will damage your company's good name amongst FOP members and other active and retired law enforcement officers."

In fact, the clothing was sold on Walmart.com, but it has been traced to a Connecticut-based company called Old Glory Merchandise, reports the Washington Post.

COMMENT:   It would be nice if the mainstream media would do some full, honest reports on the Black Lives Matter movement.  It is a radical, leftist movement, reminiscent of the old Red groups, with a wide and extreme political agenda.  To the best of my knowledge, it doesn't save black lives, and only seems interested in those that have political value.  Walmart should not be promoting that crowd.
