I think it is a shame that Wal-Mart, Inc. would go after Debbie Shank. She was hit by a semi truck in 2000 and now has to live in a nursing home; she is now brain damaged and has no short term memory and requires 24 hour care. Her husband, Jim Shank, now has to work two jobs just to cover the cost. To go after the Shank family to recover money because of a clause in their workers benefits contract is absurd that gives other companies the green light to sue us all. Wal-Mart, Inc. took in $90 BILLION in the third quarter last year but still they want to take back the $470,000 it paid Debbie Shank after she was in an accident for which she only received $417,000.This after her son gave his life for this country.Wal-Mart is not store I would want to shop in after this. Please sign this petition to help support Debbie Shank and her family

    • Please do your company a great service and do something about this. My entire family and all friends are ready to stop patronage on your store. Please take the high ground. You will see record-breaking profits by showing you are at least some-what for the people. Thank you.

    • I will not visit wal-mart again, until they help this family. All the money they have they can't excuse this lawsuit.

    • This is a new low. Only a sick and sadistic ambition would take this legal advantage of someone.

    • All citizens of this country must begin to stand up and speak out against the vile, greedy and souless entities who care for no one or no thing but themselves and their bottomless pockets. Wal-Mart, I too will no longer contribute to your destructive greed.

    • Wal-Mart's long-term loss of profits ( however small they may be) from my not shopping there anymore will be money out of Wal-Mart's pocket and thereby still having to pay Debbie Shank's bills !
