Wal-Mart opponents seek a vote

Development plan for Blue Ridge Mall spurs petition drive

By KEVIN COLLISON

The Kansas City Star


Wal-Mart opponents want voters to reject a $90 million redevelopment plan for the Blue Ridge Mall that was approved by the Kansas City Council late last month.

The Kansas City Coalition for Worker Justice gathered more than the 100 qualified signatures required to begin a petition process that, if successful, would place the question on the ballot, City Clerk Millie Crossland said Monday.

Organizers must gather the signatures of 5,251 registered voters, 10 percent of those voting in the last mayoral election, by April 5 to get the referendum placed on a ballot.

4. Well, poor Mr. Rawls was tombstoned
So that's one Stockholm Syndrome "thinker" who won't be posting here.

Just remember - low prices are good! And without WalMart, everything in America would cost so much that no one would have a job.

2. My "I hate Wal-Mart" campaign.
MONEY SPENT AT WAL-MART KILLS
GOD'S UNBORN CHILDREN!!!

Score some of those bloody posters that the Anti-Choice crowd uses to picket Planned Parenthood, and use them to picket Wally World.


Wal-Mart supports
COMMUNIST DICTATORS!!!


I’m absolutely PRO-CHOICE, but think the Fundies need to face this hypocrisy.

Will the Republicans stand on Moral Values when their wallet is threatened?
Only immoral people (Communist abortion lovers) shop at Wal-Mart!

3. Sure! Let's abuse the TIF program to enable Wal Mart. Our KC schools are
in deep shit, but please let's not tax Wal Mart. I despise those people.
