I’m one of those people who will never enter a JCP store again because of the ads and their pandering to homosexuals. I had shopped at JCP all my adult life until now.

We got to this point where perverts are given special “minority” status simply by not taking a stand against the policies. Those of us who still recognize right and wrong have to stand up now so our children and grandchildren won’t be conditioned to accept evil as good.

“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.”

I’ve never noticed all this, thanks for the tip, will be keeping my eyes open now. Personally have never liked Target.

I think that their new pricing policy has been a calamity, and this guy is the sacrifice. Rainbow or not, the only thing that matters to a corporation is green.

Here when the local Walmart was buidling a super store next to their old building the libs came to protest against Walmart because of some nationwide lawsuit going on. The signs they help were “Target Store” signs.

There’s a reason why Michelle Obama made it on the news when shopping at Targets. It’s the store of choice for liberals. all together

I used to work in their catalog department's call center back some 18 years ago. It was a nice place to pick up a few extra bucks and with the employee discount and sales it was a good place to get good quality work clothes for your day job.

It changed about 15 years ago.

My wife is a JCP shopper. They brought in a guy from Apple that did not understand clothing retail sales. Proceeded to drive people from the stores by elimating sales. The Ellen ads were not so much offensive as not understandable and totally missing the target audience. At the same time, wife was getting email and text sales ads from Macys, located in the same mall. She started shopping at Macy’s. So did many others. 31% drop in sales 1st quarter, off another 18% for 2nd quarter. So the Apple guy was summarily ushered out.

Just out of curiosity, I went to Target’s website. They have Christams trees and books on God. “You are here: Target > party supplies & holidays > christmas > christmas trees” and “You are here: Target > entertainment > books > religion” but maybe there brick and mortar stores are different then their online site.

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.


I wish Walmart would sell hand guns again.

Walmart sells beds, driers and washing machines too but not in the store. I think you're right - only online.

I had to go to Targets a couple of times already knowing about their politics and it was during Christmas. I looked and looked for the word Christmas and with the exception of specific Christmas Cards on the shelf the word did not exist. I even went down to the “Holiday” tree department and looked for signs that said Christmas. Nothing.

I looked and looked hoping that all that I was hearing was wrong because I like to have alternative stores to shop and both Target and Walmart are less than a 5 minute drive from my home.

At Walmart you see inspirational books, books on indivuality, Holy Bibles, books written by conservatives and yes there may be an occasional book by a leftie but overwhelmingly conservative.

At Target you will find books on about Islam and Buddha but I saw no Holy Bibles in the Target where I live.

They are overly politically correct and also refused the Salvation Army Bell Ringers to use their sidewalk for Christmas time.

Ellen the Degenerate was just after-the-fact confirmation for me what a pathetic retailer Penney’s had become. Their stores and merchandise slid into the dumper of quality years ago.

I worked at Penney’s part-time right after college to supplement my income, and I was always impressed with their higher line items - they have all disappeared now. Total crap.

You’re wrong in my case.

It was the last nail in their coffin for me. I dont support the homosexual agenda in any way, shape or form. I will not spend my hard earned $$$ to support anyone else who does either.

Besides, their clothes have been sucking for more than a few years now.
