While Target touts its progressive views, as seen in the company’s decision to allow men who identify as a female to use women’s restrooms and changing rooms, its the store’s customers who continue to bear the burden of this stance.
Police are looking for a man who exposed himself to a child last Sunday at a Chicago Target, NBC Chicago reported.
According to authorities, the man entered the women’s restroom and pushed into a stall where a young girl was, exposing his genitals before leaving the bathroom.
“It’s very sad. Children are innocent,” Stanley Hughley, a shopper at the Target store, told the NBC affiliate.
“However old the pedophile was, it’s wrong,” he added. “It’s pure evil no matter how you look at it.”
Yet, Target remains firm in its policies, despite the cost customers risk paying, not to mention the financial cost to the company — after the decision, Target suffered a $10 billion loss in value, a 20 percent drop, according to The Daily Wire — some state this loss was due to other factors.
Target CEO Brian Cornell has been adamant that the retail company will “continue to embrace our belief in diversity and inclusion.”
Target spokesperson Danielle Schumann said of last week’s incident that the man was drunk when he exposed himself to the girl.
“At Target, the safety and security of our guests is critically important to us,” Schumann said. “Immediately after a guest notified us of this incident, we called law enforcement and provided them with video footage from our store entrance to help with their investigation.”
Of course, this does nothing to restore the lost innocence of a child
I identify as a Target executive.
Notice to employees: You all are fired.
why not have the girly men use a private family changing bathroom with a lock that is already there?
They should be fired. What a disaster.
I suppose Target’s commitment to inclusion and diversity does not extend to drunk males identifying as males exposing themselves. Or merely getting lost, confused. Or perhaps mentally ill.
Why exactly did Target call the police?
HE was drunk. He didn’t see her.
. . . so Target can present him with the Customer of the Year Award.
It is amazing that with brick & mortar retailers struggling against the internet that Target chose to shoot themselves in the arse over this.
It’s more important to them to have open bathrooms then keep the corporation open. They’ll let it all crash.
Isn’t the CEO friends of Barry and Mooch?
This reminds me of the wife-wife team in California that just drove their SUV off a cliff with "their" six children inside. Same mentality.
Yup Why go there if you have children? Just order.
He didn’t expose
The teenagers peeked
“At Target, the safety and security of our guests is critically important to us,” Schumann said. “Immediately after a guest notified us of this incident, we called law enforcement and provided them with video footage from our store entrance to help with their investigation.”
So what are they going to do when this "drunk" gets caught and promptly announces that he "identifies as female"? Will that qualify as "their dogma getting run over by their karma"?
Target needs to be on the receiving end of lawsuits. They are aiding and abetting crimes like this.
A logical and sensible solution to the real problem this man represents.
But you are not addressing the problem that Target is trying to solve.
Target is trying to solve the problem of LGBT people ‘feeling’ excluded from the main stream of American life.
Having Transsexuals use a bathroom made for accommodating one person at a time would not make them feel part of the mainstream. It in fact would make them feel excluded.
The fact that LBGT people are not part of the mainstream is irrelevant to the question. It is all about virtue signaling, expanding the Leftist Liberal voting block and tearing down the family structure. The more people are divided in to ever smaller groups the more power the Leftist will have.
and Im sure this idiot CEO will never allow his children around these sick freaks. Hypcorite..
It only takes one lawsuit by the parents of a child victim, to get Target to change policy.
