To the Editor:

Re “Walmart Enters Gun Debate, Curtailing Ammunition Sales” (front page, Sept. 4):

Kudos to Doug McMillon for his ethical leadership at Walmart and the decision to stop selling the types of ammunition for firearm magazines used in mass shootings. Cynics and Walmart-haters will still criticize the decision as not going far enough.

As much as I personally believe that hunting animals is cruel, I understand Walmart’s rural roots and customer base and the decision to keep selling hunting rifles in some stores. Hunters have not been mass shooters.
