Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity
Tax the rich, feed the poor
‘Til there are no rich no more
I’d love to change the world
But I don’t know what to do
So I’ll leave it up to you

OK, I have read this column several times. It seems that the “better alternative” is to trust Target to provide security in their toilet rooms.
Really?
Target hasn’t offered any plan for doing that, but we’re just supposed to trust them? We’re supposed to believe there will be Target employees who will drop what they’re doing to come into the toilet room and kick somebody out?
That ain’t gonna happen. This column is not well thought out.
heck, Saudi Arabia could ban LGBT from using the wrong bathroom and the LGBT would not complain. O wait, they kill LGBT people, where is the anger there> too busy hunting down Christians to bake you a cake LGBT?
“to insure the safety of women and girls”
What about the safety of little boys? We need to put little boys BACK into the equation!
A little boy who witnesses what looks like a woman at the urinal in a restroom could be just as traumatized as anyone.
When did we as a society decide little boys aren’t to be worried about?
This is BS, boycotts work. The other side proves it all the time. Our side has never actually done it an organized persistent way.
And it cannot be an invisible one of two people here and there. It has to be loud, visible with people marching in front of stores causing as much of a stinkand pain as possible. The way the other side does it.
It has to be an Alynskyite protest.
I only had boys, but I should think that if I were the father of a young daughter that was too old to take into the mens room, and I was uncomfortable going into the ladies room with her, I would stand outside the door to see is any of these pervs tried to enter. I would mention to the pervert as he entered that if he touched my daughter that I would kill him. That seems like it would be a boycott alternative.
“Instead of boycotting, why not call on Target to insure the safety of women and girls while they are also providing reasonable accommodation to transgender individuals?”
This is not mainly about safety!! We are being stupid again by mainly making that argument!
It’s about not wanting to bare your body in front of people of the opposite sex. It’s about privacy, if voyeurism is against the law this will make a mockery of that law. It’s a peeping Tom haven.
Which is more important: Someone being uncomfortable, or someone, possibly a child, being molested in a restroom?
The only way Target can “insure the safety of women & girls” is to put guards in the restroom. This is the author’s only solution, a poor one at best. Will there be transgender guards? That would seem to be in keeping with Target’s inclusion policies.
What about the peace of mind of the vast majority of people who use Target’s restrooms? Must we ignore that to satisfy the “sensibilities” of people who fundamentally have no sensibilities, nor have any regard for the feeling of others?
The medical profession, led by Johns Hopkins, is coming around to the obvious fact that transgenderism is a mental illness, not a sane way of life. These people are sexually maladjusted & unfit to share a public restroom with anyone.
Though I haven’t entered a Target since they banned the Salvation Army kettles at Christmas, this just adds to my resolve that Target is not a fit place for decent people.
The author of this article is an cultural appeaser, whose ethics changes with the crowd. Maybe when she meets the beast in the restroom she will have a change of heart.
This is a typical liberal Christian. She says we should do nothing but ask Target nicely to do what they are silently already refusing to do (provide separate restrooms for those with confused gender identity). Target is activist for gay/transgender and everything unholy and there is no way to deal with activists like this except hit them where it hurts. Dumb woman. She would probably also have us write letters to ISIS asking them to release the people they have enslaved and are torturing.
So go shopping at Target. Fill up a cart with high-end stuff. Then wheel it to the customer service area and leave it there. Tell them you have to use a restroom but you don’t believe that the one Target provides is safe. Then waltz out the door.
They will have to expend “associate” resources re-stocking the shelves, and they’ll see the dollar amount of the sale that their policy has cost them.
I would only suggest that you fill the cart with non-food items. Depending on the manager’s whim of the day, they may order food items to be discarded since they have been handled, and I don’t hold with wasting food.
I have a portable toilet since I’ve had two hip replacements. I wonder if I should take the toilet with me into Target with a little curtain.
I would suggest single stall rooms, floor to ceiling stalls, with an armed guard on duty to make sure that nobody accosted anybody to molest them and force them into the single stalls.
I have no shopped regularly in a Target for a long time, and frankly, this argument assures me that I made the correct decision.
It is going to take a lawsuit following a molestation to get some people to wake up.
What a milquetoast reaction. But of course so is the boycott knee-jerk reaction. I will continue to go where I please and do as I like. Any intrusion into my daughter’s privacy by degenerates will be dealt with swiftly.
How about simply not shopping at Target? Easy peasy.
Very weak ‘alternative’ from yet another compassionate Christian.
“The Alternative” from any state and/or business organization for these demanding advocates should have been setting up those blue roadside potties.
There should be bathrooms for Men only and Women only inside the store, and the roadside potties for “Others”, and have only their own transgender employees to clean these themselves.
>That brings to the reality that transgender people feel as uncomfortable in a restroom that does not align with their gender identity as you feel with the idea of sharing a restroom with a person whose anatomy does not align with the sign on the door.
So this means the feelings of of perverse disorders take priority over those of God-ordained sensibility?
>If Christians start boycotting every corporation that operates out of progressivism's politically-correct profit-motives, our choices are going to be very narrow, our voice further sidelined and our influence further diminished.
Really? Then why does big business fear the boyoctt of an even smaller minority?
States, colleges, professional sports associations, global corporations and performers have all joined the boycott of states whose laws require that in public environments, people use the restroom that corresponds with their birth certificate. So maybe boycotting Target is tit-for-tat turn-around-is-fair-play. But what does that accomplish?
So when the whole world worships the Beast then you would argue, "what does dissent from this accomplish?"
>Maybe... a proactive campaign that seeks to fight predation of women and girls...would yield superior results
Well, how about a boycott of store that foster this?
>and addresses the dehumanizing abusive bullying of transgender people.
How about addressing the dehumanizing abusive bullying of persons and businesses that essentially refuse to salute the flag of Sodom?
>Instead of boycotting, why not call on Target to insure the safety of women and girls while they are also providing reasonable accommodation to transgender individuals?
Why should accommodation, at the expense of God-ordained orientation, of any perverse destructive disordered be fostered? Is that ultimately honoring the Creator and helping the person and society according to His word?
Everybody on this thread is missing the point to this whole thing.
If we're at the point that we're defending our children against the mainstreaming of the transvestite lifestyle, (which won't be successful)....
Then we've already lost!
The "long march through the institutions" is now complete.
Target = Dayton Hudson = Liberal Democrat
They’ve also donated to Planned Parenthood and have been on my personal boycott list for decades. However you feel about transgender bathrooms, any money you spend at Target is eventually going toward left-wing causes. Do you like your own money spent on causes you object to? Then don’t shop at Target. It’s that simple.
“Why not call on Target to insure the safety of women and girls...”
...and boys. Boys are “target”ed too. Let’s not forget that the LGBT crowd in general regard public restrooms as their meetup locations to have sex, not just to relieve themselves.
Right now they’re dialing down their sexual activity in public restrooms, as part of the political strategy, just like they sanitized gay “marriage” to make it look all nicey-nice and family-fied, while insisting it wouldn’t affect anyone else, or go any further.
Look where it’s gone already, and they’ve only just started. Look at the US military.
Soon they’ll be exercising their “right” to have glory holes in the stalls and butt sex at the urinals, a la Folsom Street Fair.
The trannies who still have their penii but “feel” like women will want to have their butt sex in the ladies’ room.
And if you don’t want your little boys and girls subjected to this, YOU will be in violation of “the law.”
This article is BS. I’m boycotting every one of these companies and will tell them why. It’s not hard—just buy everything second-hand.
