This one is stupid, and obviously false but I recently had someone warn me not to go to Walmart because they said that someone had told them that gangs were going to have a meeting in the parking lot. That they were having initiations and the initiation is to shoot three women.

Of course that sounded lame, so I looked it up and found the story on snopes.com. http://www.snopes.com/crime/gangs/walmart.asp

Just wondering if it got around to anyone else, or someone they know fell for it? My fiance has a very gullible father who fell for it. He left us a bunch of voicemails warning us that we could get shot. We had a few laughs about it too.

yeah, it DEFINITELY was everywhere. I remember the local news covering it and everything. haha, I also remember my frantic calls with my mom telling her NOT to go to Wal-Mart under any circumstances.

Oh man, it reached Texas AND Louisiana. It was stupid and bad. My mom acted like she thought it was stupid, but she wouldn't go to Wal Mart or let me go. The rest of my family laughed about it though, and some people I knew were actually taking it seriously.

Haha, I think it's funny when people I know fall for things like that...

Your news covered it? xD

I heard it went all over the States as well.

I have not heard about any one getting killed at Wal-mart around where I live but there have been quit a few people robed at a Wal-mart super center near where I live and at another small Wal-mart near where I stay is where the high school kids meet to fight on Friday and Saturday nights.
