Since some people are weak willed, spineless, pc driven individuals, is the store known as Target going to have to change its name? Seems like that’s what is going to happen if you were to expand “their” sick and twisted logic to its illogical conclusion. What a crock of cr@p!

A protest at the Latham Target store has shut it down for an “undetermined period of time,” according to officials at the Latham Police Dept.
The protest began at about 9:30 p.m. Thursday in the front of the store when about 100 protester who object to the stores logo attempted to block people from entering the store.
The group that calls itself The Alliance to Stop Gun Violence in Latham says the stores logo promotes gun violence. The group hopes its movement will be taken up nationwide.
The manager at the store said he did not know how long it would take the corporate offices to respond but that he had directed employees from the bedding departmet to use blankets to temporarily cover the stores logo.
There were no injuries. Protestors allowed customers to enter the store after the logo had been covered up.
