Unruly Walmart shoppers need spanking

In Walmart, I have come across examples of unruly kids and young “adults.” Why do they have to run to the toy section and start playing with stuff or getting stuff out of the large bins in the walkways? I was always taught “you buy it then you try it.” They are bouncing balls, sword-fighting with water-tubes or water-Frisbees, trying on animal heads, etc.

I can’t say, “where are the parents?” because one of them was a parent playing ball in Walmart. Question: who is responsible if someone gets hurt by flying objects or run down by kids not behaving?

The employees are not allowed to correct a situation so the other customers have to. I see a lawsuit. Or maybe, just maybe, not enough spanking as a child.
