Wal Mart sells donkey meat in China

[highnote]

Is there anything Wal Mart doesn't sell?

Who knew that the company traffics donkey meat?

My guess is that thoroughbreds will soon be next, but there is a big back order.

[davew]

do they sell counterfeit synthetic raw eggs?

You sell what your customers want. It's China for crying out loud. These are the same people who make tea out of assorted animal penis for reasons of fertility

You sell what your customers want.

The Japanese sold a KY Derby winner for meat and there was a huge outcry.

Sell broken down race horses for meat in the U.S. and there is a huge outcry.

Sell donkey meat in China and its not a big deal.

Just because a donkey can't run 10 furlongs in 2:02 doesn't mean they are less worthy than a KY Derby winner.

I saw a report of a guy in China breeding roaches . He ate a cooked one
What was as gross as that was he said some parts are crushed dried
and used in Chinese medicine , Disgusting , therefore nothing surprises
me though with this nation .

Poor Donkeys , this is sad

The interesting question to me is should Wal Mart continue to sell donkey meat given that it is against the morals of most Americans -- and probably most of their investors?

For lack of better terms high...this is donkey poo.....

Our morals, (supposed) here in the U.S. should not be dictated to another country. This is exactly why we have government agencies like the FDA to regulate what can or cant be sold here in the U.S.

In china, Donkey is actually considered a delicacy (sp).

Next, you really think that morals should outweight a business' profitability?
You do know there are plenty of people who think guns are not moral and should be banned... Maybe walmart should morally do the right thing and get rid of those.....

Hmmm I wonder how many "sweat shops" are used over seas to obtain all of that low priced clothing Wal-Mart sell...yep morally wrong...lets get them out of the clothes business too......

I am sure PETA would have some issues with how the foods are obtained somewhere...lets ban that too...

You see, morals are a society's issue and should not be legislated nor imposed on another society.....:mad:

Seems appropriate. You can't suck dead donkey D without having at least once male dead donkey.

Probably not. Some people feel what they find offensive everyone should find offensive. i know you heard of politically correct ;)

[woodtoo]

You don't need to go to the store to find these things - their website saves the hassle of the narrow isles and crowd.

I was thinking more along the lines of Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens.

Walking into the book aisle of my local Wal Mart is like walking into a Christian bookstore. Authors like Lee Strobel, Ray Comfort. And the recent TV miniseries The Bible in the form of a novel? :rolleyes:

[davew]

they got them as well

We get it. You're an atheist. Change your signature. Yahoo!

It's a freaking Walmart! Do you really think Hitchens and Dawkins are on the top of the reading list? We get it. You're a superior being compared to 99% of Walmart shoppers. I am so ****ing impressed............ :bang:

I'll say it again...........you sell what your customers want!

Btw, that Bible series was the highest rated thing on cable during its run........

"You sell what your customers want".

[Tom]

Walmart is a big as it is because people support it.
And if we are to believe the lefties here, it is democrats, because the Romney's of the world shop at better stores.

He is a Target guy, besides Staples and a bunch of other stores I think Target was put together by Bain Capitol but my memory could be wrong.
