Walmart has issued an apology after they posted a sign over a gun display in one of their stores.

The controversial sign read, "Own the school year like a hero." Yes, this was over a GUN DISPLAY.

It goes without saying that this was not a smart idea. With the amount of violence we have seen in schools, why would someone put this sign up? Well, I'm sure someone had some explaining to do.

The store has taken the sign down and that's a good thing. However, once on the internet it never really "goes away."
