ammo shopping at Wal-Mart

[Fiery Red XIII]

In Brooklyn Park and Maple Grove, whenever I buy more than 2 boxes, they ask if I am a cop...I HATE when people ask if I am a cop! (See my other thread about OC on a hot day)

Also another useless rant...Why, whenever I go to shop in a store, dressed any way possible (even in my EMT uniform), do people think I work there?!?!?!? Target, WalMart, BestBuy, Blockbuster, etc........Do I just look like I know that much? It's not like I wear khakis and blue polos when I shop at BB or WM, or red polos @ Target. WTH?!?!?

It really seems that it depends on what store you're at as to the attitudes of the help. I have no problems in Apple Valley but the one time I bought ammo in Eden Prairie the checkout girl tried to argue with me that I didn't need the ammo I was buying unless I was going to go out and kill a bunch of people.

If that is true, I would have had her fired a maximum of 10 minutes later. I would have succeeded

BTW ... I have purchased there [at the Eden Prairie store], and you have to purchase pistol and rifle ammunition from behind the counter. I had no issues with the guy working in that department. The only ammunition that you can buy at the front check out lanes are shot gun shells (unlike Apple Valley where it appears all ammo can be purchased up front) and I can't imagine anybody saying what this girl supposedly said other than out of naivety.
