Walmart Meth lab arrest

[lovbyts]

This is a classic Walmart story. Where else could you spend 6 hrs using chemicals off the shelf cooking Meth in the isles without getting busted or anyone asking questions? LOL

Police in Tulsa Oklahoma arrested a 45-year-old women building a meth lab on a shelf in a Walmart store. Store cameras verified that she had gathered the required chemicals for methamphetamine in the Wal-Mart for over 6 hours and was starting to mix it up.

I can tell you that Meth lab chemicals are extremely volatile when mixed. During the arrest one police officer suffered minor injuries when the chemicals burned his hands. Just mixing the ingredients can ignite and cause an explosion. Just to give you an example of the volatility, she was mixing up sulfuric acid with starter fluid when caught.

Unfortunately many meth labs are found due to a result of fire or explosion. During a busy Christmas shopping season this woman mixing up a such a concoction could have been disastrous had it caused an explosion. Mixing these different chemicals also forms toxic compounds and byproducts resulting in toxic fumes and vapors. It’s like making a small bomb in the store.

A good practice would be for stores to have these volatile chemicals behind the counter and not readily available readily on store shelves, especially since they caught a guy in that very same store a few months ago with a small meth lab in his back pack.

You know what gets me? I think we talked about this before, about a year ago, but while strolling down the isles at Walmart, to see these huge people with kids in the shopping carts, munching away on shiit you know damm well they are NOT going to pay for! What happened to knoowing between right and wrong? and this is what they teach their kids?

It's the entitlement mentality. They don't think it's wrong, they are entitled. Why work for something when you can just take it or it will be handed to you? What's the purpose of getting a higher education, getting a good job with good benefits when the government will just give you the benefits (health care, welfare, food stamps, housing assistance) and the rest of us have to pay for it....

OK dont get me started.

People of Walmart....'nuff said.

not a bad idea having your lab n buyers in the same store

Wonder if she was charging "Everyday Low Prices"

Apparently there is a new method for making meth cheaper and faster. Rather than setting up a lab, you basically mix everything in one container.

[jpowell]

seriously? no way, this has to be fake. how the heck can you be on camera, for 6 hours, gathering products, and going back to the same spot and not be suspicious in any type a way?

Yeah it's called shake-n-bake and you essentially just mix everything up in a 2L bottle.

you can buy different types of acids in different concentrations for cleaning/etching purposes at many home depot/walmart type places
