Target’s stock had been dented since the American Family Association’s boycott began amassing signatures in the millions, but we obviously had no way of knowing if people were actually boycotting the store.

Target marked a 52 week low today.
Good.
The have stopped selling AR’s as best I can tell. My local Wally World has rifles, shotguns and ammo(now that ammo is available again). Not the biggest selection like before but they still have them (for now). Rem 870’s Mossberg 500’s, and a few centerfires.
“That’s a smart idea. Who stays in a Dollar Store long enough to use a restroom??”
True AND funny
“Wishful thinking, at best. One man, even one hailed by his followers as being as great as Trump, will not even dent the bureaucracy, or undo the societal moral decay that led us to this point.”
great comment Eeyore!
Good to see you left room for God to do as HE pleases! /s
Many times since Bible times, He has used one person to make a marked difference. Bible folks are just for starters, more recent history has many such people too. I’ve learned of some right here, over the years I’ve been viewing FR.
Yeah, but you can be pretty sure that their internals are showing if there's a problem.
Target commercials on TV, and ads in the paper, are skewing more female-centric of late (hint, if you want to sell to women, show them pictures of other women, and babies). Wonder if that's an attempt to "fix" this?
Which are a mere fraction of those who're pissed and saying No Target!
1 Samuel 8:22 - The Lord said to Samuel, “Listen to their voice and [g]appoint them a king.” No sarcasm tag there Thumper
This isn’t going to go away.
Mixed facilities will be taken as an insult. “We said we’re women, dammit! Now let us in!” The agitators and perverts don’t want to go into a Unisex restroom or change room - they want to go into the WOMEN’S restroom and change room and they will accept nothing less! Wait and see. If women go into the Unisex rooms they will follow them in. If women go into the women’s rooms they will follow them there. They will demand that women be forced to change and relieve themselves alongside them. This includes your teenage daughters and children!
There is no compromise on this; one side will win and the other side will lose.
Now, of course, there is one possible solution where everyone loses: No more public bathrooms or change rooms.
But that will not happen.
Know why?
The government will write a law or regulation mandating the availability of public facilities in all retail businesses!
You would think that astute business people at the highest levels would have enough sense to concentrate on the business and make decisions that are best for the business.
Mixing politics and business to use the business as a tool to effect social change is like trying to mix oil and water.
CEO's and other high level company executives who make decisions like this are violating the trust placed in them by shareholders who purchase a company's stock as a financial investment - not to finance the homosexual/transvestite war on normality.
They should be fired on the spot and stripped of all benefits and perks.
Open weeping in the bonus bathroom ?
I think you might be observing what you want to observe.... I haven’t noticed any more women things in Target than before... women shop more, period.
The simple end of the day is, TGT can only deny any impact as long as it hasn’t had to release any sales figures.. the next quarterly call will be in August. At that point if the boycott is having an impact, you will see TGT well under-performing their peers. Not simply their revenues are down, because if the entire segments revenues that means nothing... they must be down noticeable from the rest of their segment. If that happens, then there is no way TGT can spin that the policy is not affecting their bottom line and at THAT point, you have an impact.
Reality is, TGT has decided to insult most reasonable people. Issue is will women care... the ones making excuses for this policy are generally women... so we shall see. OF course the first time TGT has a real incident in one of its facilities where a sicko uses this policy to gain access, they will go in the toilet, assuming of course the press doesn’t cover it up for them... at that point TGT will be willing to pay blood money to victims to shut them up rather than deal with the consequences of their insanity.. and that’s the most disturbing part of this... They know this policy will sooner or later wind up with someone being assaulted... but they don’t care.
Until you see the financial bottom line of TGT hit, the CEO has all the cover he needs.. so folks need to make sure TGT takes a HUGE hit in their next quarter and all quarters going forward until this policy is pulled.... That’s the only way you are going to get this thing changed.... the pain of it has to be to the bottom line....
Because TGT doesn’t care if they put women at risk with such a policy... that’s how horrifically repugnant this corporation is.
I thought only businesses where food/drink is consumed were required to provide bathrooms?
Sounds great to me.
Like going to the local Wal-Mart instead, which is what I did this morning.
That’s WalMart’s loss.
Tough $#iT...
I do not think there is federal law although common sense would seem there should be. Federal law does require a biz to have restrooms for employees but not the public
so each state has its’ own regulations and I am sure each state does require restrooms for restaurants of a certain size or larger
