Excellent points. From what I'm reading online, that Wal Mart isn't in a great part of town, so that takes care of your "avoid places like that" idea.

I agree 100% on the right way to handle it. Get out the back door. If there's a mob like that, I don't care if its an "employee only" area or not. Remove yourself from the area in the quickest and easiest way to do so.

I've been contemplating this over and over again, and I just can't imagine what I would do in this scenario if I found myself suddenly in such a situation with my family in tow. Aside from avoiding going out at night, what can one do if suddenly faced with such huge numbers of potentially violent individuals?

In a store like that, I'd be going through the fire exits at the back. A group that size, unless you've got a belt fed and a fire team your best bet is to remove yourself from the area.

Suddenly my 31 rounds of 9mm for my daily carry doesn't seem as comforting.
