There is a Walmart in west Springfield MO that has an armed police officer at the entrance, one in the parking lot and one inside the store. They are not security guards. That is how dangerous this place is.
You know it has to be because Springfield was featured constantly on Live P.D. It's about 50? miles north of Branson and has to be the meth capital of Missouri.
DANG! I haven't been to Springfield in a long time. Sorry to hear it's gotten that bad!
