I cannot think of a clearer case of an organization deserving of boycott than this one.

I suspect, but cannot prove, that there are several major churches that have taken federal money washed through other groups to settle refugees. One locally just added a spiffy new addition, though they had chronic operations budget issues.

We give a LOT to Goodwill every year. No more. I’ll take it all to the dump before I clothe terrorists.

A "Goodwill Boutique" is where they take the good donated stuff and sell it for more.

Back in the day,you could go antiquing at a Goodwill and find some good stuff.

WOW! That’s amazing to hear. I’m sure Madistan does this as well.

Yes, it’s human trafficking using our tax dollars to import them and pay a church organization to “settle” them.
Our tax dollars to fly them here.
Then using our tax dollars to give them welfare and healthcare. And train them. And support them in prison when they commit crimes, etc. But then none of those latter things are the church’s problem.

I was at the local Goodwill a few years ago and observed (with morbid fascination) a female employee digging deep in her nose , working to extricate an apparently firmly embedded booger. After she finally found it she rolled it into a ball between two fingers and then flicked it over the clothing rack.

I couldn’t get out of there fast enough, used baby wipes on all the kids’ hands once we got out.

I called to speak to a manager when I got home, figured that would be something they needed to address. She was grateful and asked me describe the employee. All I could say was that she was in a burka. The manager then asked what color of burka so she could narrow it down. I’ve mostly avoided Goodwill since.

Thank you for that information. This will influence all my future thrift-store purchases, and charitable donations.

That’s the end of our donations and shopping.

Goodwill just got put on the ever growing ban list.

Goodwill is becoming freaking overpriced! Jeans there are the same cost as at the Mall! I usually buy work shirts from Goodwill. Even the 1970s-looking shirts were over $10. Insane.
