Thanks, George! First of all you need to update your holding/parent company! It is now Target not Dayton/Hudson. I believe that the change was over one year ago. Noone really knew who/what Dayton/Hudson was. You would have to be a hermit not to what what Target was!

Also, this is what gets we conservatives into trouble. The bad corporation here is Levi, the maggot infested left wing extremist company in San Francisco. Any conservative who buys Levi jeans from any company, Target, Sears, or your local conservative retailer is funding this crap that comes out of the Levi left wing headquarters 24/7/365!

Target has a lot of faults. Some conservatives would never shop at Target because they carry ChiCom products. I just don't buy ChiCom products! If I boycotted every store that carry's ChiCom products, my family would starve to death and freeze to death. We just don't buy ChiCom products!

Living just north of Gay San Francisco, I know all about the Levi family (the current left wingers). I have not bough a pair of Levis for over 12 years! When they started their left wing extremists stands, I sent them a letter saying that we would never buy a single Levi product from the date of that letter on!

A lot of conservatives would like for us not to shop at Walmarts. Well, I have bought guns and ammo from Walmart for years, and they still carry guns and ammo! Do they carry ChiCom products? Yeah and so does every other store in my home town. I just refuse to buy ChiCom Products from WalMart, Target or George's store downtown! That is how I handle the left wing extremists who own and operate Levis, I refuse to buy any Levi products anywhere!

George thanks for your response! I think that now is the time to let Mervyns and their parent company Target know that we appreciate their pulling of ad $'s from Mahers self destruction program! I will do that this week. I'm waiting to send out a group letter to all who have dropped Maher! No company is perfect, and it is time that we conservatives thank them when they do the right thing! You know like patting your dog on the head and saying nice things, when the dog does a positive thing! Thanks for your input here!

I'm not going to look at the old post link. I've worked for Target long enough to know what kind of a company it is.

First of all, Target Corporation is the parent company of Mervyn's, Dayton/Hudsons, and Marshall Fields. Second, since Target does not sell guns OR ammo, the company is not really pro- or anti-gun rights. The reason the company does not sell guns or ammo is the same reason the company no longer sells tobacco (at least, not in the Great Lakes region): the company was losing money hand over fist just by stocking such high theft merchandise. As with many aspects of retail, it comes down to a question of assets protection: is it economically feasible to carry certain merchandise once you factor in the cost of increased security necessary to keep such merchandise?
