Locked Up!! Necessary, or Unjust??
« on: September 08, 2015, 06:45:00 PM »
Wanted to grab some spray primer at the Walmart in Pearl City.  This is what I found on the spray paint aisle!

I assume it's for the shoplifting taggers.  Anyone hear of other reasons Walmart is treating spray paint like Rolex watches?

Ammo are displayed proudly here in this neck of the woods,  whilst Walmart does the same thing for ammo too.

Back when my wife worked in an Ice Cream & Burger Restaurant, they had to start locking up the aerosol cans of whipped cream.  The teen workers were huffing the gases from the cans during work.

Someone caught on when a whole case of whipped cream wouldn't come out of the cans!!   :wacko:

That certainly solves our problems of huffers and taggers <sarcasm>. There are adults who tag as well. I read a blog about a tagger who was 30 years old and the reason he did it and still does it today was for retribution. When he got pulled over for speeding he'd tag freeway signs as an immature way to show revenge.

Whippits. That's Nitrous oxide (laughing gas). Or at least it used to be.
