What are they protesting now? Walmarts low wages & poor treatment of their employees? The slave labour that makes their product? The fact that they ruin the local economies of the areas they move into?

My guess is, based on media reports, Walmart has most of it's employees on final dismissal notices, even though they've done nothing wrong or what they did wrong was very very trivial, and it makes them work overtime / extra hours, but makes them clock out at the correct time, not when they have finished work, and then doesn't pay them more than their regular work hours.

The two main ones are that their employees are generally underpaid and have few benefits, and they import lots of things from China and other places.
