Penney is a Dead White Male, and therefore not relevant in a nation where satisfying your own animal lusts is the highest virtue. Many Americans have become high-tech cavemen.

I have embargoed JC Penney ever since 1986 when their tookey insurance company denied renewal of the my policy because I bought a new car they didn’t like. Screw them - I hope they fail.

It seems today that companies have perfected the method of running their companies into the ground. So much for shopping at Penny’s. I hope they fold.

Conservatives need to boycott pro-gay, gay is normal business. That includes DC Comics, Penny's and any other business that SPECIFICALLY and PUBLICLY promotes a pro-gay agenda. Leave it alone, market your products and leave social issues out of advertising. Go natural if you must, but do not promote politically agendas. Gays make up less than 10% (some figures as low as 1%) of the entire USA population, somewhere between 3 and 30 million people. Why is any company specifically marketing to gays when it will offend real Christians a much larger portion of the population?

This company is doomed. Out front of the JC Penny close to me they have the first parking spaces after handicap marked with a sign as "carpool only". Then the next space is "electric car" only. They have gone so politically correct it's doubtful they will survive as an ongoing business.

I drive a V8 powered gas guzzling four wheel drive truck. They just need to go ahead and put up a sign that says "we don't serve your kind here", "we don't want your business, take your money and go away".

Fine with me. I don't want to support these leftist nutbags anyway.

Penneys, like other companies, courts a noisy minority because they are afraid of the backlash from that minority. They believe that most of the rest of us, while we might complain on blogs, internet websites like FreeRepublic, and letters to the editor, will most likely also continue to shop at their establishments. They may be right. We don't make enough noise, or we make noise, but we don't follow it up with action. We are all too busy scratching out a living to spend time on a highly organized and effective protest. We should be able to bring Penneys to its knees. But the company knows we won't.

It’s really too bad ... I liked JCP’s towels, bedding and such, but they’ve made their decision as to who they want as a customer and it sure isn’t me (or us). I cancelled my catalog and all advertising with them and immediately delete all their e-mails.

Picked up a JCP tent at a yard sale last weekend (for free).
My last Penny’s purchase.

What they don’t understand is that this makes you feel like you are making a donation to a particular “side” when you shop with them. When shopping becomes a political act it takes away the “fun” part.

[rep-always]

Have been a JCPenney shopper for years. Hubby and I started a real estate business with rentals and used to purchase towels, sheets, home stuff for all our overnight rentals from them. Once I saw Ellen Degenerate as the spokeperson for the company and the Mothers Day flyer promoting “two mommies”, I cut up my cc and will never, ever set foot in that store.

I spoke to one of their sales people and she told me since the new ceo, some guy that used to work for apple, took over, that is the agenda their promoting. So I told her it was nice to talk to her, but to have a nice life because I would never visit again.

[Lera]

They pulled this same stunt in their Mother’s Day promotion with a lesbian couple.
I cancelled everything I had with them after seeing it and will no longer be shopping there .
