Target not budging – so AFA stands firm

There is not one item that Target sells that I cannot conveniently buy elsewhere. And, I have been.

But there is more to the story.

Once Target customers start shopping elsewhere, they are changing their shopping habits.

Thus, simply settling the dispute will not bring in throngs of returnees.

Think back to the baseball strike of 1994. Lots of baseball fans were incensed about the player's greedy disregard of the fans, and never, ever came back.

It's pretty simple. The political winds are going pro-tranny and Target doesn't want lawsuits. I don't think it's their leadership's beliefs to do this but the Left is very litigious.

In the case of many corporations you'd be right, but with Target you are wrong. They have a track record for enthusiastically embracing Progressive causes that goes WAY back.

I’m short TGT stock (via puts) from 84 and not complaining a bit.

[HamiltonJay]

I didn’t say Target won’t, I said if you want them to it has to hit the bottom line and hit it hard.... until you see their revenues/earnings drop significantly compared to the sector they aren’t going to change.

[GingisK]

...the policy is all about inclusivity and making people feel welcome...

Creeps must feel welcome, normal people do not matter. That just doesn't seem like an economic solution given the demographics of our society.

[WKUHilltopper]

How about going to the CEO’s office and take a dump on his desk? And went he whines about it, accuse him of not being tolerant and non-inclusive. Because, today, you’ve identified as being a non-house broken dog.

[Sans-Culotte]

As for me and my family, Target no longer exists.

[VideoDoctor]

I just act like they "DON'T EXIST."

I spend my money with businesses that "DO EXIST."

“Bruce Jenner I hear is now not sure which bathroom he will be choosing. Says maybe he is going to UN transition”

The “transition” saved him from that pesky vehicular homicide....

Think it is finally time to show these people that Americans can do the right thing. It may seem drastic but I think its time we actually put one of these businesses that are trying to change our society our nation our lives, OUT OF BUSINESS.
If we drop their stock enough they can either get on board and go back to protecting women and children of they can fail.

[notdownwidems]

Interesting that the Target executives are willing to piss off 99.5% of their customer base to protect perverts

That's what I thought, too! 'make everybody feel welcome'??? WTF??? They are making a huge segment of their former customers feel decidedly UN-welcome! But I guess they don't care.

[Kenton]

They’re looking at it from the stand point of, will their Liberal business increase to make up for it.

That's what the Dixie Chicks thought, but in spite of lip service the liberal support never came, and now they're history. Same thing will probably happen here.

Liberals are elitists, they look down their noses at big box discount outlets.

Target will come to wish they hadn't done this.

[faithhopecharity]

Just wait for the lawsuits hit Target for all the child ( and adult) moleststions and rapes they’re enabling. Target will drop its sicko bathroom policy FAST!

There’s a saying “Shoot, shovel, and shut up.” Target could have done like thousands of other businesses and said nothing but they wanted to make it political,

[aquila48]

“Think it is finally time to show these people that Americans can do the right thing.”

It’s way past time. They knuckle under the leftists because the left knows how to pressure them. It’s way past time that we learn that lesson and start dishing out the same medicine instead of just taking it.

If we can’t win this slam dunk of an issue what can we win?

[Rashputin]

It will take a while, but they're going to feel the decline just like J C Penny's did. When the back to school and Christmas season figures are down, that's when they'll sober up.

[MrBambaLaMamba]

Maybe it’s a plot by senior management to crash a failing concern, loot what capital is left and then when it’s time to close the doors blame the evil, hateful reactionaries.

[stephenjohnbanker]

They WILL care, as they are losing billions of book value, and the Wall Street predators go for a hostile takeover. LOL

[SuperLuminal]

If was a demoncrat, I'd sign up with about 100 false addresses...

We need about 5-million anti-perverts to sign up before Target will surrender...

[Fred Hayek]

I would address her as “Tovarisch Zampolit.”
