Do you work at Target or something what's with the anger?
No, I don't work at target, and I only shop there about once a year, if that.
I just get ticked off at the hypocrisy of people who expect a company to do whatever they think it should do, but when it comes to put up some effort of their own, they shuffle their feet with their head hung low and mumble that they throw a few coins in the bucket now and then.
It's pathetic, because people just love to call 'boycott' reflexively and never take into consideration the facts of the issue - that target donates millions to charity, including the salvation army - and that they have granted the salvation army an exemption to their 'no solication' policy, opening target up to lawsuits. But they still don't care. They want to threaten boycotts because it makes them feel good about themselves.
And they ignore the fact that target told the salvation army about this in JANUARY so they had a whole year to prepare alternate locations - but they dragged their feet and are now trying to bring public pressure against target.
The SA may do good work, but they keep losing more and more of my respect. Combine this target fiasco with their refusal to accept millions of dollars because the donor won it in a lottery, and it makes me wonder if their ultimate goal is to help the poor or just look pious.
