LOL!

I usually check before I post but I was sure I remembered it right.

But I was oh so wrong.

We can assume that the 1.2 million figure is for two wage earner family’s with children, who have chosen to abide by their faith and pursued shopping is “safe” spaces. Stable church going families represent an important sector of the population when it comes to tax paying (and tides), or disposable income for non-church attending Americans. Target does not “target” the poor or the rich, but rather the affluent - and the majority were offended.

“The debate is whether there is a correlation between those two facts.”

Actually, the debate goes beyond correlation to causation. Target has experienced a revenue downturn. It instituted a controversial bathroom policy. Has Target’s revenue decreased more than similarly situated brick and mortar retailers, and can it be explained by a decrease in young women’s apparel? Today’s retailers are very sophisticated. Identifying which segments are underperforming relative to previous quarters and years is not difficult. It a question for the big data guys in the IT dept.

Hey, Brian Cornhole -—I mean, “Cornwell”. I haven’t set foot in a Target store this year and I won’t until the policy changes and you’re out of a job.

How’s that for a “measurable”.

BTW, I’ve also stopped patronizing the Hilton chain of hotels because of their promotion of homosexuality.

>>Remain calm. All is well.

Isn’t that what the captain of the Titanic said while they were rearranging the deck chairs?

Nope. Captain Edward Smith was exemplary.

Don’t they have stockholders complaining?

Can't talk with their mouths full.

[BatGuano]

I'm betting that CEO Cornwell, well, he is toast and will soon “smell the burn.” He has a target on his back now and, with his head in the sand, he might get shot in the butt!

Stockholders won't put up with lousy numbers on the bottom line.

[Dante3]

I agree. Target is not the only big business to place their political agenda ahead of national security or even profits.

[gogeo]

Costco is not a part of Target. Period.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

See post 49.

(I am going to have to get a rubber stamp of that.)

[gogeo]

It would also help if I paged down a little...sorry.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Don't worry about it. Getting a good beating occasionally reminds you to check your facts before posting. :)

[Vision Thing]

And not wanting to be a Target (concealed carry not allowed), even more reason not to set foot in Target.

hey ISIS, y'all have a juicy target, and they lack the will to defend themselves via weapons. And they love homos and transgenders.

Hit the target, ISIS!

The Idaho Falls store is actually across the city boundary in Ammon. There was an incident in that very store. See link. Suffice to say, the mostly empty parking lot is deserved.

Targets still in business!!!!

No, they are not. But they sure like the Christians money. Wonder if they have figured out that you don’t bite the hand that feeds you. Or maybe they will learn this important fact after the Christmas holidays.
