A woman posted a picture on Facebook of the latest shotgun shell inspired Christmas lights that are being sold at Walmart, and in the wake of the most recent shooting in Thousand Oaks, California, people aren’t happy about them at all.
Many people shared their dislike for the lights, but there were also those that didn’t have an issue with the lights. “Since the holidays are the same time as hunting season, I think it’s a good sales tactic,” said one person. “I just think there has to be a different way to remember or commemorate those who were hunters,” said another person on social media. The lights made of used shotgun shells aren’t the only items that are sold using the casings in stores. You can purchase other kind of crafts on Pinterest and ETSY.
Is it insensitive for Walmart to sell the shotgun shell Christmas lights?
There will be a lot of very-public bad behavior today.Take heart, though. We live in the greatest country,in the greatest era on Earth.Right now, in the USA you can hop in the car and purchase a set of shotgun shell Christmas lights for under $20
