pandering to the filthy 1% is bad for the bottom line...Wow, I wouldn´t have thunk it. I´ll steer clear of the Penny store. I bet J.C. Penny the founder is rolling in his grave.
99% of JC Penney customers never saw or heard about the “gay father” ad. Sales & stock price are nosediving because JC Penney customers are coupon addicts, and the new management attempted to kick them off it cold turkey.
they will have to double down on solid values promotion for six to twelve months before I enter the store again
I suggest others do the same
make them an example for others
My memories of J.C.Penney involve awful sweaters from Grandma on Christmas and Birthdays, and Mom taking us kids there for “good” clothes.. (Everyday clothes came from Sears or Wards catalogs..)
Except for the occasional short-cut into the Mall, I haven’t set foot in a Penneys since I graduated High School...
What could they have been thinking?
Us normal people have been so tired of the queer perverted agenda being forced upon us, that JCP became the lightning rod of our frustration. May this be the turning of the tide that will begin to flush the filth out of this nation.
I’m not sure if we can generalize what happened to JC Penney. Each retailers have their distinct demographic hence responses are different. JC Penney’s customers are middle class to lower class population that in general are more religious and concern about values. So, any boycott due to value customers may have big impact. Target’s demographic is a bit higher (not the 1%) but is still very different from JC Penney. Not to mention the caramel-machiato, mac-loving crowd that frequent Starbucks. Would their responses be the same as JC Penney crowd?
The problem is that it’s impossible to boycott a store that doesn’t have anything you want and therefore you wouldn’t shop at anyway. None of my friends have shopped there in ages and neither have I.
It’s the GAY THING!!!! I will NEVER shop at PENNEY’S!!!
They ought to fire the Board of Directors, who hired him, as well, or they'll make the same mistake again - and wonder why things tank. Some managements are as thick as the liberals.
Hope and change....Hope they go broke....Keep the change!!
After going gay, wouldn't they get twice as many?
pandering to the filthy 1% is bad for the bottom line...Stay away from them. They are contagious. They transmit more than just diseases of the body, but of the mind, and spirit/heart.
When Florida Governor Sydney J Catts ran for office he came up with a classic campaign slogan.
He said “the common man of Florida has only 3 friends on earth. Jesus Christ, J.C. Penney, and Sidney J. Catts.”
He won the election and in case you are wondering, he was of Jewish ancestry but had converted to Christianity and became a Southern Baptist Minister.
Seems we are in a death watch. The only question is do I get to collect unemployment when they close their doors?
“I believe in adherence to the Golden Rule, faith in God and the country. If I were a young man again, those would be my cardinal principles.”
What a shameful group of people that have steered this store away from the founders principles. I believe in Divine Intervention and this will get reversed in this country with the power of prayer... and a little boycotting!
“CEO Ron Johnson also admitted that Father’s Day sales were a bust. “Penney’s shares fell 8.8% Tuesday to their lowest level in a year, [and] store traffic was down 10%.””
How low can it go?
Is there some reason their marketing department failed to realize the company would suffer if they abandoned their typical customers in favor of a group consisting of about 2-3 percent of the population?
