Arizona parking lot crime at Wal-Mart's and EPA violations (national)

Arizonan's United Against Wal-Mart

CRIME — If you watched "The High Cost of Low Price" released last year you know there is extensive crime in the parking lots of Wal-Mart. According to the movie Wal-Mart goes to great lengths to hide this fact. The movie claimed Wal-Mart protects it's own property but does not care about you once you leave the store. So I have decided to start this page - crime in Wal-Mart parking lots in Arizona. Of course I am relying on news stories! If you know of one that I don't have please send me an e-mail. My address is at the bottom of this page.
