Don't guess I've seen any pictures like yall have described but don't think I'd want to see them either if they are making fun of people.

I am not sure what pictures you are referring to? Are you referring to "Wal-martians?" I totally agree with what you said about people taking photos of you without your consent. That is a violation of your rights.

Uh no.  It's called "People of Walmart"  I have never heard of the one you mentioned.  And people take pics of others for all sorts of reasons from making fun of them to using it for a profile pic on a fake site.  I remember a couple years ago a woman found her son's pic (he was a couple months old) on a site like craig's list up for adoption.  It was a pic SHE had posted all over face book.

People of Walmart are no different from anyone else.  They are human and deserve to be treated with the same respect and dignity as anyone else.  Just some food for thought.  Simply because people shop at Walmart does not give you a free pass to ridicule or belittle them. 

It has nothing to do with shopping at Walmart or being belittled for shopping at Walmart.  I am not sure if you do not know what I am talking about or just missed the point of my post.  They are not being ridiculed for shopping at Walmart.  They are being ridiculed for the foolish ways, trashy ways and insane ways they dress.  I am sure there are "People of Target" and other such sites as well as the one for Walmart.

Well I have looked at them in the past.  I have even laughed at some of them.  Some of them are funny.  But I have noticed most of them are must making fun of people.  For example people who are over weight.  That's when I stopped looking at them.

Some people do dress in an outrageous way to get attention.  There was a girl came in where I worked a few weeks ago and she had half her head shaved, the other half her hair was purple.  She had facial piercings in her nose and eyes.  Tattoos on her face.  And an attitude to match the billy bad persona she was trying to convey to everyone.  Most everyone just ignored her and the more they ignored her the more outrageous stuff she done to try to get attention brought to herself.  Smh.

There was another thread sort of on this same line about people (employees) being rude at Walmart.  I don't think it has anything to do with WHERE you work but who YOU are as a person.  I deal with complete jerks at work but I also deal with a lot of nice people.  People who say thank you and ask nicely for help.  There are jerks every where.  There are also people every where who are having a tough time.  And sometimes that spills over into your attitude.  No matter who you are.

We should stop being judgmental, classifying people in some group is not right

Nobody classified anybody in any certain group.  There are also sites that are "Pictures of Target" and "Pictures of Lowes" and pictures of every other store out there.  People want to make it a Walmart thing and say they are being shamed for shopping at Walmart.  No, you are being shamed for looking stupid, wearing little to no clothes, clothes that are way too small, or extremely dirty or going out in public in pajamas.  The only group that would put you in is lazy maybe.

I do have issues with people too lazy to put regular clothes on when they go out in public.  I remember a few years ago this girl actually came in to where I worked to turn in her application and she was wearing pajamas.  I am not sure she really wanted the job.  smh.  Needless to say she was not called in for an interview.

I am not sure if you all saw or heard about the video that went viral (I did not watch it but saw a snip on the news) about a fat guy that was dancing and these idiot girls took a video and posted on line with the caption "just sit down and quit acting like you can dance" or something like that.  And like a million people liked it IN SUPPORT of him.  And have even raised several thousand dollars on that go fund me website. lol.

I have accessed this website many times and I love it. Admittedly I do wonder if these people are real because their outfits are so questionnable, but it is a great source of entertainment. There has been occasions when I wonder if I might know somebody, but I never do.
