Nobody told me, unlike the self important Michael Moore protesters who are about as self important as Michael Moore is himself. They just had a mediocre retailing model.

#NeverTarget I’ve boycotted them since they decided to stop allowing the Salvation Army access at Christmas time.

They participated in the killing, but to me, Christmas will never be dead.

Not sure what Management really thinks, but they are getting terrible advice from folks they likely perceive as "younger" and "culturally-relevant/sensitive". Schadenfreude, Minnesota.

They didn’t kill a thing. They only picked up a dead pseudo Christmas and were more honest about it than many Christians are.

I do 80% of my shopping (and nearly 100% of my clothes/jewelry shopping) online. I don't have to share my dressing room or bathroom with strangers. There are all sorts of subscription based clothes retailers to chose from including:

* Stitch Fix. This was the first subscription clothes service I signed up for. They charge a $20 styling fee which is applied to the item (s) you purchase. They will give you a 25% discount if you keep all 5 items they send you.

* Trunk Club which actually started out as a men's clothing service and just branched to offering personal stylist services for women about 6 months ago. Owned by Nordstrom's, IIRC. No styling fee, pay for what you keep. They also pass along sales prices to you. There's more opportunity for open communication w/ the stylist him/herself.

*Trendsend/Evereve which targets mothers and leans towards more causal, comfy fashion. $20 styling fee.

Both stichfix and trunk club do a pretty good job of surveying their customers up one side and down the other to get to know their wants, needs and personal tastes so they can provide them a box of clothes they will actually like.

I don't need to go to Target (or any store that will let a fake tranny enter the women's bathroom with ill intent) for my clothes.

"I’m betting the fault lies with some particularly infouential exec at Target who is a sodomist."

It's this one...

"Laysha Ward is executive vice president and chief corporate social responsibility officer for Target and a member of its executive leadership team. She leads Target’s commitment to integrate corporate citizenship into its daily operations, with direct responsibility for sustainability, diversity and inclusion, "

We need to drill the point home. Perverts are not a protected class. Protecting perversion is not a virtue.

FR needs a like button. LOL!

Just two days ago its president said Target is standing by its potty/fitting room policy. So let their stock tank; if the shareholders don’t speak up, that’s what will happen.

I get to try out my new Target boycott mode tomorrow. I ALWAYS stopped at Target when we went into the “big city” and always spent some good money there. That’s over now. And unlike most people, I hold a grudge forever. Maybe some transvestite will take my place shopping there.

My wife is a huge Target fan. She signed the petition and hasn’t set foot in a Target since.

Back in 1989 she got pissed at Walmart and hasn’t been in a Walmart store since. When she means it, she really means it.

You could say their shares are "in the toilet".

But George Takei says that the American Family Association (sic) is a “proven hate group”.

************************************************

It’s not a hate group unless Morris Dees says it is.

“I hope they go broke.”

We need to work on that to make sure it happens.

Beside this fiasco, a while back they also decided to not differentiate between boys and girls clothes - they purposefully want to promote gender confusion as early as possible. One more reason to work toward their demise.

Going down. Sell your stock.

Also don’t shop at Target.

I stopped shopping there when they refused to let the Salvation Army Bellringers stand at their doors.

You can’t stop a single liberal from shopping there. And it traps Christians into fighting the parsimony game.

Do you think only liberals shop there?

Are you going to shop there?

Is that an actual sign from Target?
