They likely never put a single interracial couple in their ads, but they rush to put two dudes that bone each other?

JC Penny’s is for geezers anyway.

This is going to be the only method by which we are going to stop the absolute assault on our children and out society by a depraved and perverted deluge.

Laws have been passed by the dozens to protect these perverts from even a word being spoken against them or any action taken to protect our families from their abominable public displays. It will be increasingly difficult as more businesses and Liberal institutions try to enhance so-called “diversity”.

There is no need to open one’s self to the vile attacks of these perversions or their supporters. Simply take note and avoid supporting or buying their goods with vigor just as people have with JCP. Make the competitors of the slime supporters rich.

Homosexuals are quite able to support their own abberrations with retail outlets and stores just like porn addicts, SMs and the like without blatantly flaunting their condition before our children and grandchildren.

Boycott works. In this case, it’s gravely important to future generations. This is the view of someone who has had their gag reflex activated more than once lately by disgusting public displays that most heterosexuals would be ashamed to do in public. It seems that our “first gay President” has opened the floodgates on this kind of behavior in public places where young children are present.

Echoing others, I don’t see the necessity of a retail store weighing in on any social issue - what’s the point?! Are they being badgered to do so???

We have money printing and that money going to a few large banks. It's not a far step to direct the way some of those funds are utilized. Could fund managers have a secret incentive to purchase stocks of certain corporations whose CEO is connected or supportive of certain government agendas? Isn't this what fascism is all about? That's where Gerald Celenti thinks we're headed (i.e. fascism)

I recently checked Target's stock after recent LG news came out. Unlike JC Penny, Target's stock hasn't been greatly affected by their changes in policy, yet. Maybe someone is still buying?!

Saw a sign near the cashier that read, “Line Forms Here.”

Just saw on he NEWS tonight that Penneys is going to get rid of their cashiers and registers.
They will be going to some sort of self checkout.
They expect the change to be complete by 2014.

They just can't seem to stop shooting themselves in thee foot.
And I liked shopping for clothes there.

Have not ordered anything on-line - must feel it and try it on (don’t have a ‘real’ computer, anyway - - )

You are a better shopper than I.
I’m not aware of some clothing labels being available elsewhere except the higher-end stores.

As for Outlet Malls, (I know - you didn’t mention) there’s one nearby, but as we know, the original ‘outlet’ concept went out with high-button shoes.
One GENerally does not find the exact same retail item at the outlet - outlet items are manufactured/made, for the outlets!

Who gave any company permission to screw with the lexicon?

The use and meaning of words will be determined by the general Culture over an extended period of time.

It is not just the Gay Models, it is the progressive leftist organizations they support, here is a prior post I made regarding JC Penneys:

Penneys is tainted with far left/progressive groups, when I canceled my charge card in February, I searched for any conservative group and found none. What I did find was located on Penneys “Heritage of Giving Page” ALL Progressive Left Social Justice groups such as:

Human rights Campaign: Working for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Equal Rights

National Urban League: “Occupy the Vote” openly supports Obama and Calls on ALEC to Support Repeal of “Kill-At-Will” and Voter I.D. Laws

NCLR (National Council of Laraza): nuff said

Several other groups listed, did not bother to check out, as all the names were progressive left groups.

I admit to shopping at Target though I cannot understand the business model it is following. They have remodeled all the stores in Tucson so that they have grocery sections. The prices of groceries are higher than Walmart, so we do not see how the change could help them unless they are relying on SNAP sales. It all seems like a huge waste of money on their part. Hubby comments on it every time I drag him into a Target store. So where are they making a profit?

What other reaction to their obvious backing of homosexuality would J.C.Penney expect?

Cashiers are sometimes the only client contact a Purchaser has! And most Cashiers are being Paid $10 dollars an hour or less! They make sure every item is rung up, bag the items, deal with cash vereses credit and handle all returns with Smiles and Live a Life of Hades with horrible people sometimes! The Cashier is THE MOST IMPORTANT FACE OF ANY RETAILER!

I emailed them. Thank you for providing the address. They have lost several hundred dollars per year from us, as we are a large family and that was our #1 clothing store.

It’s Sears and Wal-Mart, now, as I am avoiding Target as well.

Penney’s hasn’t been a “great” store for over a decade. They have basically gone to the K-mart model: Shop for yourself and bring your items to the check-out stand. But don’t dare ask one of the body-pierced, grunge-attired floor dolts any questions about the merchandise unless you enjoy blank stares.

I repeat: NOTHING to do with “the gays”, IMHO. Just a STOOPIT decision to stop coupons and sales. Perhaps the stock had risen after he hired Ellen but before he stopped the coupons.

Um... think twice about Sears as well. Look up AFA’s expose of their bestiality-themed items.

I know, it’s getting to be a mine field out these. But this is war - literally!
