Nothing like doubling down when you’ve lost a million.

Lose the case; another million(s) out the door. Good news, Target will soon be gone.

Maybe he was just trying to get to the bathroom.

Amazing that they can be this dumb!

Maybe they are a double agents for Walmart.

This is what corporate suicide looks like.

I spent the majority of my career in the military industrial complex. The main company desire was to vanish into the background and remain unnoticed by the general public. I believe this is driven by the abundance of AstroTurf and the bad publicity it generates. For example, a bus brought protesters almost daily to my plant in Tallahassee. They were handed box lunches, took regular breaks (from standing around holding signs) and were picked up promptly at a prearranged time. (You could tell when the bus was about to arrive as they were all queued up for it.)

Retail, on the other hand, apparently believes, wrongly, that no publicity is bad publicity. They are angrily pursuing an agenda that is inimical to the company’s value to its investors. They don’t care. If I did shop at Target I would stop.

OMFG!
I can’t believe it!
I actually can hate Target more than I did yesterday.

Die quickly Target!

Good riddance to bad trash!

One more reason to stay away Target. Not that I need another one!

Suing the hero Turner? They ought to make him CEO. He couldn’t make worse decisions that their current CEO.

They don’t have standing as Target was not in any immediate danger.

You forgot the rest of the story:

“Target filed a counterclaim against Turner, adding him as a defendant to the case. The trial is expected to being (sic) on Monday. Meadows and his family will commute to Pennsylvania on Sunday to attend.

Two other men are also being sued by Target, however Meadows is the only defendant without an attorney who will be representing himself.”

There’s no explanation about that.

Minor point - “East Liberty” is a neighborhood in the City of Pittsburgh, PA.

Putting Target out business seems appropriate at this point

Who made the decision to go to, or to enter, the Target store?

The perp.

Who caused the underlying situation?

The perp.

Target should be reamed for this one.

Prosecute a hero?

For damages that did not occur, but could have occurred?

And the judge should do the reaming.
