Second, the guns at WalMart aren't next to the cereal. They're typically at the other end of the store.
"Corporate trucks enjoy the benefits of publicly financed roads and bridges, maintained at the public's expense, not theirs." There are additional taxes gleaned from trucks both federal and state.
