Bought some 20 ga shells a few months ago and she asked if it was for a handgun. I just stood there and said 'huh?'
yeah, you might use shotgun shells in a FLARE GUN PISTOL.
Once...
Who does biz with Commie Mart anyway? I DONT. F Mart in my book.
This is what I call the Lawyer Syndrome. Some control freak corporate Manager says to their F lawyer "tell us what to do to be absolved of any liability."
Y'see, several years ago, 'the Ambulance Chaser profession (lawyers) werent making enough money prosecuting product liability cases, so the whole works got shifted to "personal injury" and the awards went crazy', a lawyer told me.
When awards are multi million, corporations get nervous.
Of course, the lawyer is paid to tell the company whatever they want to hear, stupid, ridiculous, illegal, immoral or not. Theyre a big corp in bed with Givernment, so what?
So, they make stupid "rules" like this, and yes, they can do that, its their company/store (commies as they are...) and theres no law to the positive (that they have to sell it to one over 18/21, just to the negative of a prohibition to sales to minors.
NEVER MIND the Constitution doesnt exclude "minors" as "people" or "Citizens" but thats another Goverment contrived attack on our Rights.
So they hide behind their rules and its more convenient to hire stupid people to stand on the front line to "enforce them" because they get a thrill down their leg from someone giving them authority to "enforce" something against someone else (and theyre cheap to hire)
Never mind their "rule" is contrary to law, but some paranoid Manager feels like hes safe...
Target, last night, had a sign on their photo copy machine that no one could copy a picture that wasnt more than 75 years old. This is Bravo Sierra, because:
1.) last I READ US copyright law, Copyright protection had been extended to 70 YEARS, not 75
2.) who do they think they are to determine who the Copyright owner is? Thats determined by the owner a/o Copyright Office, not some arrogant moron at Target.
3.) You copying a copyrighted work on their machine does not expose them to any liability, they arent doing the copying. "Allowing someone to use a copy machine" does not constitute Copyright infringement.
But, people feel important (I think the PC term is "empowered") to play stupid little power games with others.
I play them back by telling them what they can do with their product/service, that I either dont need it/them and can buy elsewhere.
