MT. JULIET, Tenn. (WATE) – A Middle Tennessee pastor is stirring up controversy from both supporters and those opposed to the transgender bathroom bill.
Pastor Greg Locke of Global Vision Bible Church in Mt. Juliet’s video about Target’s new bathroom policy has received over 14 million views. In April, the Tennessee House sponsor of the bill, which would have require students in public school grades K-12 and higher education institutions to use the restroom that corresponds with their sex at birth. Shortly after the bill was pulled, Target issued a store policy that allows transgender customers to use the bathroom or dressing room of their choice.
Locke said he asked a customer service representative at Target to explain the policy. He says she told them that he can the restroom he “self identifies with.” The Tennessee pastor said he asked if he could use any bathroom right now and he says she told him “yes.”

Target employee: “...there’s a new law....” Not in Tennessee. They couldn’t even get that right.
Target is wrong. I quit giving them business a few years ago when it filed an amicus brief in support of same sex relationships at SCOTUS.
Call them. Tell them what you think. Anyone could do this:
Target Guest Relations at 1-800-440-0680 (press 1 for store experience) and expressed yourself eloquently.
Plus, it’s always good to read up on Alinsky.
To be effective, you don´t have to boycott all the offending corporations. You just have to boycott *one*. One which has made itself prominent on the issue, and one which is vulnerable to consumer pressure.
You select *one*. Then you hit them hard. Then you keep hitting them hard. You keep it up til you have knocked the stuffing out of them.
The others? They sit up and take notice.
Meanwhile, not a peep out of the Pope. Guess he was too busy meeting with Bernie Sanders and telling everyone who realized it was interference in a US election to get a psychiatrist. Thanks Morgana.
Never mind him, how about local bishops and Priests There was a message from Bryan Kemper but it’s on Facebook. Don’t know if everyone can see it.

Wow, I never heard that, about hitting just one. It’s true, Target is big enough with a customer base of virtually every American. What are the execs of Walmart, McDonald’s, Costco, etc, thinking at this moment? They did not rush out to proclaim their unity with Target’s policy.
Exactly.
Read your Alinsky.
Far too few. They are too busing gearing up for vacation Bible school.
This is exactly what I've always contended, especially when the sodomites come back and sneeringly ask "where are you going to shop then? The whole world is gay friendly."
It only takes hurting one, one of the most extreme offenders, and the market sits up and notices.
Glad to see him speak out, too. At least he didn’t cuss. I could have never done a video like that without cussing. The stupid and cruelty of political correctness makes me so angry.

And you don’t even have to boycott them 100%, or at all, although that is ideal.
I have been boycotting Wal-mart after they threw their weight against a religious freedom law in Arkansas, I believe. They are boycotting God, and many of their customers along with Him!
But with some companies, where there might not be many alternatives, just get in touch with them and let them know you’re a customer and you’re disappointed. Be very nice, treat the person you talk to or write to (who is just a go-between) very, very well. Make it a pleasant experience for them as much as possible. But companies don’t like people talking negatively about them. You may not boycott, but someone in your circle might. The company knows that if you’re getting in touch with them, you are talking to others about them. And they may boycott. Or decide to switch when another opportunity/offer comes along. These companies sticking their necks out to declare the Bible hate just might come to truly regret that they have.
Someone will successfully sue Target over the rape of their child... it’s only a question of time.
But that it has to come to that. America, where are you?
