The failing toy chain recently revealed that it is going out of business after it filed for bankruptcy last fall.
Daily Wire writer Paul Bois said the business deserves a “humiliating end.” After all, it did promote the group that is aborting more of its customers than any other group in the U.S., Planned Parenthood.
Though Bois expressed sympathy for the employees who will lose their jobs, he said the business has itself to blame for its failure.
“I shed not one tear for them, and neither should you: For the past decade, the organization has joined the ranks alongside Target, Starbucks, and every megastore chain in the conquest of progressive social engineering,” he wrote.
The Life Decisions International boycott list, which identifies businesses and organizations that donate to abortion groups, included Toys R Us. At the end of 2010, the pro-life group removed the toy business from the list after it agreed to stop donating to the abortion chain Planned Parenthood. However, the toy business continued to indirectly support Planned Parenthood through 2017, as the watchdog group 2nd Vote noted.
“Toys-R-Us matches gifts to Susan G. Komen NYC and MN chapters, which continues to fund Planned Parenthood,” according to the report.
The toy chain has fewer customers than ever, resulting from declining birth rates, Bois noted. And while abortion rates also have dropped, Planned Parenthood’s share of the abortion market has increased.

“That the company donated to [Planned Parenthood] while pushing family-friendly labels like Babies R Us makes their actions all the more egregious and all the more deserving of failure,” Bois wrote.
Any business that donates to the abortion giant is not only hurting itself but also the most vulnerable, at-risk human beings in the world, babies in the womb.
Business 101 - Destroying your target market is not a strategy for success.
One would think a toy-seller would want to keep its immediate customers alive.
Some folks just have a little trouble connecting the dots.
So now we’re left with stores like Target deciding which games and toys should be available to children.
Toy stores should not be selling contraceptives.
Just can’t imagine the stupidity of donating to an ugly organization that’s main goal is to wipe out potential customers. Makes no sense whatsoever. Incredibly stupid thinking.
If I told my boss that I had a way to use his company funds to support an organization that would continue to wipe out his customer base, I’d expect to be fired immediately.
LOL, irony, ...Toys R Us assisted in the killing off of it's own single market: children.
There’s always Amazon.com - much bigger selection, and you can use your own potty.
Stores should not be hiring hitmen to murder their clients. Bad for business.
I think most toys they sold came from China. With toxic materials.
By the same logic, the Democrat Party reduces its voter base. Since 1973, something like 60 million babies have been aborted. How many of these would be voting age now and how high a percentage would have leaned democrat? I would say a lot and a lot.
I wonder if Jesse Jackson would have been president if millions of black babies had not been deleted at the time of his primary run..
I argued this over the phone years ago with General Mills, who donated heavily to Planned Predators, and couldn't get it into her thick head how damn stupid it was to donate to a group whose main goal was to destroy General Mills target base . . . I got no where
Idiots gave PP the rope used to hang them. . . poetic justice, but a huge problem for the preservation of our culture
Ivy League MBAs—Is there anything they don’t know?
If I read the article correctly, Toys R Us stopped donating to PP in 2010 but continued to support the Susan Komen Fndn that supports, begrudgingly, PP. You all will recall that SK Fndn tried to pull from PP a few years ago, but that raised a firestorm among foundations, so they continued with PP.
SK is predominantly a breast cancer fighting organization, not an abortion mill. I’m not so sure I’d put them in the category of PP as is done here. The Toys R Us organization, or any organization, would see support of a breast cancer fighting organization to benefit its clientele.
This support of SK, of course, has nothing whatsoever to do with why Toys R Us has gone belly up. They over exended, and otherwise made poor business decisions.
I don’t think that TRU bothered to think about the fact that PP kills babies and that once dead, they will never be getting toys from TRU.
