The Grumpy.

Click Me     They have everything at Wal-Mart! I mean, electronics, groceries, furniture, random people to give your crying kid something to cry about, clothes, cards, baby stuff, and anything else you could want. What's that? You're curious about the new random-people-to-give-your-crying-kid-something-to-cry-about section? Apparently Roger Stephens (who's face is actually on top of the Grumpy if you mouse over the image) will beat the tar out of your two year old if it cries too much. Sure he's 61 years old, but he can still take a 2 year old out!
     Unfortunately, this story is true. Random old guy made it very clear that if a mother didn't shut her kid up, he would do it for her. He then proceeded to smack the kid four or five times. While that is wrong (it is wrong!), I have one little question: What kind of parent sticks around after some old mean looking guy just threatened your two year old? Yes, the slapping happened in a different isle than the original threat, but if you saw that guy coming again and your kid was still crying, you gonna just hang out and wait for the smack to get laid down? I don't think so! Why didn't she report him, tell someone, or straight up leave? I'm serious, the people of walmart can be a little disturbing. Be careful out there people, there's all types of citizens waiting to shut your kid up for you...
