Something’s up at J.C. Penney.

After the closing bell, the department-store operator announced President Michael Francis was leaving, effective today, after only eight months on the job.

Shares dropped 6.5% in after-hours trading to $22.75 in after-hours trading. The stock is down nearly 50% since early February.

Looks like JC Penney wanted to wait until after Fathers Day to fire the architect of all of the gay advertising of late.

Ellen Degenerates is next...

I only saw her on 1 or 2 ads and that was early on when she signed up for the advertising they were stupid ads too. Come to think of it I have not seen any Pennys ads for about 2 weeks.

Americans are getting tired of BIG government and BIG corporations shoving sexual deviancy down our throats.

No mention of a Mrs. Francis. That may be the problem.

Guess I’ll make sure I wont be shopping at that heterophobic department store.

Back to Walmart for me where they sell guns, books about God and the workers are happy even though the democrats tell them they should not be.

Stay away from Target. It’s a liberal store. The only books they carry are Ellen and Michelle Obama. No God books and they call their Christmas Trees “holiday trees”.

Target banned the boy scouts from collecting money in front of the store but Walmart welcomes them.

One thing you left off about Target: most anything they carry, Walmart has cheaper. (At least in my neck of Iowa/Illinois.)

FReepers aren’t allowed to shop at WM.
All their stuff is from China.

I kept a running log of all the places that FReepers aren’t allowed to shop.

It finally got down to the St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Stores.

Then somebody posted an anti-Catholic screed and we were totally out of business.

Won't set foot in JCP since they hired Ellen Degenerate as a spokesman. And then to have this male homosexual ad at Father's Day is just too much. JCP has spit in the face of American religious families with this crap.

I hope they have to close their stores. Pity on their employees, but this is too much. Why not open a Faggot Only department store and then see how far it gets. Can't believe they corrupted this formerly fine department store.
