SHOCK: Journalist Goes to Walmart to Find Out How Hard It Is to Get a Gun

Many gun control advocates and their media allies talk about how acquiring guns in America is easier to do than acquiring over-the-counter medicine.

Hayley Peterson, a journalist for Business Insider, went to a Walmart to find out how easy it is to get a gun.

Walmart is in the news because it was the site of the El Paso massacre, where a gunman killed 22 people.

However, Peterson had a different experience when she visited a Walmart in Virginia. She claimed that her trip to Walmart was “far more complicated than I expected.”

After long inquiries on the phone, Peterson found a Walmart Supercenter in Chesterfield, Virginia where she could acquire a firearm.

She noted that there was “a selection of about 20 rifles and shotguns was displayed in a locked glass case behind the sporting-goods counter” and that the “guns ranged in price from $159 to $474.”
