So I ran across this article on fox news.

I've seen, and frequently visit the website People of Walmart and find it hilarious. Should my picture, god forbid, ever end up on that site for whatever reason I would like to think I would have a sense of humor about it. I particularly like the woman's argument:
"The thing is, if you take a picture of someone in public, they're in public," Wheeler said. "My argument is you're in a Walmart. We have no privacy shopping? So, I could go into any store and take a picture of anybody or their children and put it up on a web page."
Hello, McFly, Walmart IS in public! As long as you're in public, and shopping is one of those public activities, you're fair game. Apparently she thinks that once those sliding glass doors close as you enter the giant shopping center, that a protective bubble forms around you and no one can touch or see you. Sweet Jesus.
