Local Walmart Throws Vet To The Curb For Trying To Sell Memorial Poppies…

For the past 20 years, veteran Manuel Griffin has sold memorial poppies outside a Walmart in Dickson City, Pennsylvania, in May to raise money and awareness for the VFW. Rain or shine, Griffin's wife, Maryann, says he always shows up.

But this year, during inclement weather, Maryann says the store told the 69-year-old veteran he couldn't sell the “buddy poppies,” created by disabled or needy vets in VA hospitals across the U.S., under the covered area.

This man had fought for our freedoms, and at the end of the day Basic human kindness should have stepped in here.

What happened?

When did this type of behavior become acceptable? All over a single vet trying to support his local VFW?!

What do you think? Is this an overreaction or did Walmart do the right thing?
