    Eugh. I hate the idea of someone decided what I can and can't read. Reminds me too much of the WT.

    Does it mean in some parts of the US men will have to go without the '100 hottest women" issue?

    You can still go to WalMart to buy a gun to blow someone's brains out of course.

    It's never been that kind of blowing that the Christians have got all bothered about, Matty.

    The article says:

    The Magazine Publishers of America, an industry trade group, said it believes "that, in this free society, consumers should have the freedom to decide for themselves what they want to purchase."

    I guess, though, that in this free society, retailers shouldn't have the freedom to decide for themselves what they wish to sell?

    Publically traded companies have a responsibility towards free society. WalMart has long had a Christian agenda. It's very obvious. The best thing, of course, would be to fight back and shop at a locally owned, but that is easier to talk about then to do. I shop the place, so I really can't complain as much as I'd like to.
