Nuns Pose Security Threat To Walmart

A feeling of danger usually isn't the first thing that comes to me when I see a group of nuns. If you an evil corporate giant and happen to be called Wal-Mart, well then that is an entirely different matter. The Boerne nuns in the Hill country of Texas having been speaking out and demanding better treatment of Wal-Mart employees for a long time now. Apparently Wal-Mart became afraid of their activities and decided to put surveillance on the sisters.

From The San Antonio Express-News:

Sister Susan Mika is part of the Benedectine Sisters, which is part of the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility. The center has been questioning Wal-Mart's business practices for years.

"We've been raising questions with them for about 17 years, so it's not like they don't know it," Sister Mika said.

Now, the sisters find themselves on Wal-Mart's security threat list. Sister Mika said the group has been wrongly labeled.

"In no way have we ever been a threat to the company in that sense. We might be a threat in the kind of question that we're asking, but not a security threat," Sister Mika said.

What Wal-Mart is afraid of is a church-related group exposing their many sins against hundreds of thousands of citizens they employ and society as a whole. They are guilty of paying unfair wages, strong-arming suppliers, treating their workers like garbage and now insulting a nice group of nuns. The Sisters' want an apology and they deserve one. After they get around to that they should start apologizing to the whole damn country for what their greed has done.
