Businesses take stances because they’re pretty sure that customers don’t have much of an alternate choice as to where to shop. I agree though, I don’t see any reason to take a stance and add to the insanity.
Why would any business think this in the Internet age? I am willing to bet that every single product that Target sells I can find online for less (sometimes without having to pay sales tax or shipping charges) and have it delivered to my door.
If a store wants my business they have to give me a reason to shop there, and I can almost guarantee that they will not be able to compete based on price or convenience. A locally owned business with good customer service makes it to the top of my list. A national chain that supports left wing causes drops all the way to the bottom.
