To those who've been critical of the protesters who are looting and burning down Targets -- please, shut up. The CEO of Target has officially issued a statement in response to the nationwide protests in the wake of the recent murders of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and Geoge Floyd. The CEO, Brian Cornell, penned an open letter in support of the protesters and communities across America that are constantly dealing with police brutality.
"We are a community in pain. That pain is not unique to the Twin Cities—it extends across America. The murder of George Floyd has unleashed the pent-up pain of years, as have the killings of Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor. We say their names and hold a too-long list of others in our hearts. As a Target team, we’ve huddled, we’ve consoled, we’ve witnessed horrific scenes similar to what’s playing out now and wept that not enough is changing. And as a team we’ve vowed to face pain with purpose," reads the letter.
It’s hard to see now, but the day will come for healing—and our team will join our hearts, hands and resources in that journey. Even now, Target leaders are assembling community members, partners and local officials to help identify what more we can do together and what resources are required to help families, starting right here in Minnesota."

They know. They just don't care, because they're selfish bastards who put themselves, and their wants before anyone, or anything else. Instant gratification is how they live, and in order to get what they want, as quickly as possible, they will destroy everyone else's property to get it. It's the Democrat creed...the end justifies the means. They have no conscience about what they are doing. It's fun to them. And they have never had to accept responsibility for anything they've ever done in their lives.
This will be an easy task: stay the hell out of Target!
While wearing his dress
I won’t be shopping at Target any longer. Oops, I stopped doing that long ago. Geez, it’s easy being a conservative.
Remember this the next time you consider shopping at a Target store.
Pander, pander, pander, but you can’t expect anything else from Leftist scum like Target. I won’t sit foot in the place.
My GAYDAR is off the CHARTS! Is TARGET a PUBLIC company??
“This has “unleashed the pent-up pain of years””
What a bunch of CRAP.
“pent up pain” - would he please describe the cause of that pain.
And, I think, I can explain to him each cause listed is because of the black community’s action, or non action.
Could the reason so many are arrested is because more are born to single mothers and had no father figure in their lives? Could the huge number of school drop-outs be because of the reason sited above? We can go on and on. But I submit there must be change in the black community for good things to ever happen.
Many blacks have stepped up and done well in life. It seems I see more black faces on TV now than any other. They are into politics on both side of the aisle, in the Armed Forces, in business and industry in big numbers, law enforcement, etc. Many are doing great. Maybe those can be a force for good in the community left behind.
It’s so easy for him to say stuff like that when he lives in what I’m pretty sure is a very, very safe place. Whether he lives in a high rise in some city, which is probably guarded like Ft Know, or out in the country on and estate, I’m doubting that he’s really effected by all these terrible things that have gone on.
He, like so many others, can virtue signal and stand united with anyone he wants, lets see how welcoming he is when these gangs show up where he lives and starts threatening his way of life.
I’ll be boycotting Target. They deserve to get looted and go bankrupt.
Why don’t they just have their workers stand outside with signs that say “We understand, feel free to take whatever you want, have a great day”.
Another reason not to shop at Target (as if I needed more)
I’m sure Target stockholders will appreciate the way the value of their stock plummets — NOT.
Brian’s eyes are very close together. Rounded, hunched shoulders. Weak looking as his politics.
Target Encouraging the looting and destruction of their own stores. If I were there insurance company then I would be sending a cancellation notice.
I will never set foot in terrorist supporting Target again.
FUTarget.
Oh, gag.
I never patronized them but they shut down the one in my lily white town because virtue-signaling, BLM-types were marching about two blocks away.
Great, deprive those who were getting paychecks.
Target also. Was one of the first to force wo e. To allow men in their fitting rooms.
I haven’t set foot in a Target since they said trannies could use the women rest room!! Haven’t missed it one bit!!
What a load of sanctimonious BS.
Okay. Now I don’t feel sorry for ANY losses that Target takes during this. Burn them all down, for all I care.
