Target Corporation will continue to ban the Salvation Army from their 1,351 stores this Christmas season. The Army will not be allowed to place their red kettles in front of Target stores.
Despite increased need caused by the hurricanes Katrina and Rita, Target continues to bar the Salvation Army.
Many observers feel that the ban by Target is a result of pressure put on the company by homosexual groups. Homosexual activists have targeted the Salvation Army for years because of the Army's refusal to recognize their lifestyle. Target is a supporter of various homosexual causes.
While Target contributes to homosexual groups, the company publicly states that they will not contribute to any religious groups. For Target, homosexual organizations are worthy of financial support, Christian and Jewish organizations are not.
Further showing Target's true colors, WTOP Radio Network in Washington, DC, reports that Target is one of the national chains that will be carrying a new line of women's products that includes a vibrator.
Elexa by Trojan spokeswoman Cassandra Johnson says the products will be discreetly packaged and sold in the feminine care aisle.
"Formerly the domain of sex shops, such products have been brought out of the shadows by popular television shows like 'Sex and the City,'" WTOP reported.
While Target continues to ban the Salvation Army, competitors such as Wal-Mart are increasing their donations to the Salvation Army. Wal-Mart and others continue to welcome the Army's kettles.
Please send an email asking Target to end their ban of the Salvation Army and their offering of a sex toy line of products. In addition, you can email Wal-Mart, thanking them for supporting the Salvation Army.

I have a feeling they are going to see a large increase in their gift card department this year.
They had it on the news last night and also said Wal-Mart carries them but only in the stores in Canada.
Burlington Coat Factory is the worst hands down. I won't shop there.
"Private property" rights for "public accomodations" went away a long time ago. Perhaps you didn't notice?

You must be a man.
Interesting. Notice the handful of states where these products are not sold. I guess those people aren't supposed to have the freedom to buy such things if hey choose.
Assuming you meant orgasm, I would say that you don't need a Corvette to drive, but you will likely get there faster and enjoy it more if you use one.
"I think Target is definitely the wrong place to merchandise "sex toys", no matter how discreet..."
Obviously Target is marketing to the non-religious or at least the less devout. And you're right no woman should "need" a vibrator but they are fun... sorry.

Not in Georgia they won't-sex toys are illegal.
Ick!
"A viewer notified media watchdog Reverend Donald Wildmon that, in one episode of this series, it looks like Mighty Mouse reaches into a pocket and snorts cocaine from his hand to regain his strength. Wildmon was disbelieving at first, but after investigating the episode and learning of producer Ralph Bakshi's background (e.g., directing the adult cartoon Fritz The Cat), alerted the media that this may have been intentional."
BS. I remember the episode. A girl had given MM a flower earlier in the episode. MM reached into his pocket and pulled out THE FLOWER.Plain as day. The flower crumbles in his hand and turns to dust or ash, and he sniffs it as if he were smelling the flower. OK, the dust did go up his nose, but It did not look to me like he was 'snorting' it, and it wasn't coke. It was a really good cartoon and it pi$$ed me off when they cancelled it over this nonsense.
"EXIT ONLY"
The only clown here is you - ahole. Wildmon and this organization are at least trying to do something unlike yourself who can only complain. Target promotes the homo agenda, if you want to support it then fine, but quit with the bashing of OMD.
Mike in Iraq<----Idiot Alert!
He's a charlatan and a goofball who gives true God-fearing people a bad name."
