And while Target is glad to take the last $10 bucks off of a homeless person who is in need of a winter coat and who purchases one in their store from the sale bin, Target is unwilling to allow the Salvation Army to raise funds to help that same homeless person make it through a blustery cold freezing night.
...this statement makes NO sense! Target is a retailer that will gladly take the last $10 from anyone! As well they should if supplying a coat! This article implies that Target represents evil and capitalism. If Target chooses to keep the SA away from their stores, fine. If it upsets you that much, stop shopping there. Why the big deal? Having your hand out to the SA doesn't give you the right to force your way onto a business' property!
That's exactly what we've done. We'll drive a few more miles to a store that allows Salvation Army bellringers rather than shop at Target. And we won't go back.
