Actions have consequences. One typically learns this when very small. Oh, and isn’t it odd that there’s no mention of the pedophilia crap in your stores?

The company should pay for therapy for those who feel threatened. Clearly a mental issue going on with the gays.

For a dose of irony.

There is a gay guy who manages a local target. He did not do the pride stuff, because and I quote “I know my customers and that is not what they want.”

However, in this day and age, catering to the customers is Hateful if it doesn’t advance the message.

The stock holders are DRIVING IT.

ESG. It is NOT about making money, it is about changing the culture.

Cry me a river. I never read one article where anyone threatened Target employees.

I did. But the threats were from the poofters because Target had moved or removed displays.

I normally strongly oppose $1000 theft felony limits and organized shoplifting - but in Target’s case, I’ll make an exception

“But I would tell you what I saw back in May is the first time since I’ve been in this job where I had store team members saying it’s not safe to come to work,”

I call Biden, I mean bull crap. Target’s demographic are middle class women who support all the faggotry and LGBTQWTF crap. However, deep down inside, most of them don’t want their kids sexed up in “tuck friendly” trash designed by satanist child predators.

If Mr. CEO wants to be edgy put up some Israeli flags and let’s see who is the real threat.

Really...how many fires were set in May, how many broken windows, and how much looting, vs the mayhem during the BLM riots?

George Floyd got himself killed. He was not “murdered”.

Liar!

There were no “normies” going into Target threatening anyone.

There was nobody threatening to beat up fags or dykes or t-girls. Let’s not mince words, this is what he is implying. Like the gang from Blazing Saddles signing up for mayhem...

I’m sure there was a lot of disgust in the customer base, but that isn’t threatening.

He should fire those who created pride month

They SHOULD feel 'not safe'. And that would only be a small percentage of what real females feel when some brain-sick trannnie cannot feel that the day is complete unless he takes out his tallywacker in front of some woman in a place formerly secure for females. (I really wish that a group of women would wait in their restroom and really give an attitude adjustment to the next Democrat socko that tries its tranny trick.

I'll help make the team safe by never shopping in Target again. The CEO thinks targeting children with "tranny" clothing is acceptable. It's not. I'm looking forward to seeing Target stores converted to vacant real estate.

Were I engaged in grooming children, I do not think I would expect to feel safe.

Think of ways to modify your behavior, to improve yourself and your business, and to increase your standing in society.

It’s not that hard.

Of course you’re right that woke institutional investors hold the lion’s share. But those investors have investors as well. I take Blackrock’s recent statement that they’re backing away from ESG as BS, but they’re not immune from pressure from their investors. As far as small direct investors in Target, if they feel their concerns aren’t heard, they can sell and drive the price down further. In any event I think we’re going to find in June that pride Month is a lot less fabulous at Target than it’s been in the past

Target CEO Brian Cornell suggested that the backlash the retail giant faced back in May over its LGBTQ Pride displays was the first time some team members claimed it was "not safe" at work.

What a fag.

"This is my 10th holiday season at Target.

And apparently, you still haven't figured out how to spell "Christmas."

I hope you get the Christmas sales you deserve, weasel.

He was being quite pragmatic - if sales and customer participation takes a dive at the location he's responsible for corporate would be after him eventually. That kind of stink is a threat to his job.
