rationalize what??? You seem to have quite the chip on your shoulder. I should feel bad because I donate to them, as well as many others, most concerning our soldiers??? NOT
I said nothing about your donations being bad. Try reading it again.
The point is, in case you didn't get it before, is that target donates both merchandise and money to the salvation army.
They get no credit for that.
But tossing a few bucks into the kettles of the SA a year gives you enough gravitas to let you criticize target as harming the salvation army. Even though they gave them a full year to find alternate locations...and they have been giving the SA the sole exemption to their 'no solicitation' policy for years.
The only thing the calls for boycott will accomplish is to discourage companies from getting involved with charities like the salvation army in the first place. Because they will see that no matter how much they contribute or how many years they help out, the minute they don't do exactly what some people want, they will cry for a boycott.
Way to shoot yourself in the foot.
