because: a) walmart wants to take out this big tract on land. with lots of trees. i happen to be pretty fond of trees. aren't you? b) they want enough space for 767 parking spaces. so, they want to take out a bunch of trees and pave it. i don't like pavement, really. c) route 3 is already hell. do we really need a massive walmart with 767 parking spaces, so it can be rush hour every minute of the day? d) they'll kill k-mart. i happen to like k-mart. martha stweart makes me giggle. not everyone likes k-mart, but they were here first. e) there's a walmart 6 miles away in bowie. and 2 about 10 miles away in glen burnie. f) it's walmart. walmart is known for their exploitation of thier workers, and the little kids in china/india/third world countries.
well, i dont really like trees. and industrialization is inevitable, if they dont build a walmart, they'll build something else. if they build one in crofton, that means we wont have to drive all the way to bowie and risk getting our car stolen, because the walmart in bowie at night is not a good place to be. exploitation of workers? i may be cruel, but i dont care. & a petition really isnt going to do anything. i mean, it brough HFS back. whoopdeedoo. but i dont think its going to stop the walmart executives.
plus, i like getting my smiley face sticker when i walk in the door. ;]
you know, not liking trees is somewhat hazardous to your health. trees do provide us with oxygen. i don't shop at walmart. so, going to bowie at night just to go to walmart isn't really a problem for me. but, why go to walmart when there's a k-mart that much closer? that lot's been empty for a while because of some kind of zoning issue, i'm pretty sure. so, unless they rezone it, it will remain empty. and the GCC has some control over that. so, a petition could easily do something.
