"Half Baked" from Walmart

My friend bought the new "Half Baked" special edition DVD. She bought it at Walmart. It was only $13, but I told her that I'm very sceptical of any entertainment being sold at Walmart. They're a family friendly corporation. They're big on cencorship. I don't know if they even sell uncencored CDs.
Anyway, my question is this: Does Walmart edit DVDs? I remember renting a movie with an entire love scene edited out at Blockbuster, so who knows whether Walmart would do the same with the DVDs they sell?

...I highly doubt they censor it...if they even have it, I looked though the selection of DVD's there and I never seen it there...but that was around christmas time when I was looking for a present for my family members though, so it was a while back...

Well, the new special edition just came out the other week. It's being marketed with a brighter light on Chappelle in order to capitalize on his current popularity. I'm sure she did buy it at Walmart.
I'm just wondering if maybe someone here knows of an instance of DVD editing at Walmart.

Leary, I don't have any sources or anything, but I recall reading Wal-Mart pulling DVDs off the shelves before for censorship reasons and their "family values" thing.
Wish I knew what titles.

They don't censor DVDs but I remember a year or two ago they made some deal with RCA or some company to sell DVD players that edited out any scenes deemed not family friendly. I don't think it ever went through though because directors didn't like the idea of such censorship.

Yeah, they see a fictional wizard child as a satanic threat to American family values.

Don't they sell guns/ammo at Walmart?

These people see your ignorance as being blindly anti-gun just as plainly as you see their ignorance as being anti-Harry Potter. It's glad to be me and sit back and laugh at both sides.
It's a private fucking company, they can do whatever the hell they like.
