I don't go any further north than downtown these days. But I went to this Walmart recently. Oh my God, it looked like a total hell on earth blatant shop lifting, rude staff a ton of druggies all over the police. No security to speak of. They're down the street from the Greyhound so who knows what might be pouring in there. Wow, is there any attempt to remove that homeless encampment adjacent to the property?

Isn’t that just every Walmart in town? They did go through and get all the homeless people out of that property a few years ago (plus a few bodies if I remember correctly) but from what I understand it’s a private property and the owner isn’t in state and doesn’t care I guess. Wish that our city would do some more to clean it up on the north side but it just gets neglected. The O’Rileys seems to be about it as far as trying to invest in the north side and actually bring in some business over here.

Isn't that greyhound closed/moved? Get over yourself. This is just a normal Springfield Walmart.

There honestly isn't much for me to do further north than downtown. I stopped there and saw clear drug deals. Security guard who told me to fuck off. Feces in front of the store. A guy walking around covered in swastika tattoos

So sorry you had to travel further north than downtown. Next time try the Kansas Expressway Walmart.

That is normal bro, try to have some compassion the state just actively decided it was for removing the homeless at all costs

I go to that store at least 3 times a week since I work near. I can say with 100% certainty that everything you said here is completely false. Literally all of it. Get a hobby man.

You know, if we had adequate shelter and places for homeless people to be, they might not be near Walmart. Have you considered devoting this energy to advocating for that?

Northern Springfield typically is worse.

I'm from out of the city but have to come in for all of my shopping (rural) and I've been to this one. It honestly didn't seem so bad.

This is total nonsense. I was just there. I’m sure they’d appreciate your kind of enthusiasm in Jeff City though. 🙄 SMH
