Nah, the derp is important. It demonstrates people can't handle the topic, which is a contribution of its own sort.
Forget it, these people think in binary. Black was bad and white was good, now they have to say that both are good but Islam is bad and Christianity is good. You don't get through to folk like that, you just hope their kids aren't so fucking stupid and wait until Alzheimer's reduces them to "being able to remember my kids' names = good, shitting the bed = bad".
I predict, like virtually all right wing boycotts, no significant impact on Target's bottom line. Remember when the anti gay people stuffed their faces with shitty fast food chicken yet the company flip flopped anyway because actual dales declined? Yeah, remember when the wing nuts wanted to boycott both Canada and France because they fecided not to join in the invasion of Iraq yet imports grom both countries increased? The right wing culture warriors have a terrible track record on their boychotts and I predict the lastest culture warripr bluster will be no more effective than their last several attempts.
Target's hitting all the targets when it comes to dealing with backwards assholes who didn't get the note that this is the 21st century: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry...860062d?cps=gravity_2425_-6490710217625764790
Yeah, you can't ask that question here, simply because these people are obsessed with penises. It's all they can think about.
The question here is different. The ethical/moral thing to do here is to require men and women to use their respective restrooms. If I see a tranny try to follow my kid into any restroom he's going to going to be on the business end of it, believe me. I would think stores like Target would want to avoid that outcome.
Not that there's hope for you, but for those whose ignorance is not completely incurable, let me be clear: men with feminine traits exist. Men who occasionally pretend to be women exist. Neither of those tend to have any interest in using the ladies' room. Furthermore, nobody wants to open up the ladies' room for perverts to go in for a cheeky wank. The only thing under discussion is whether people who live full time as women, and are women in every way meaningful for casual social interaction, should be barred from the ladies' room because of something you wouldn't even be able to detect if you weren't actively violating their privacy.
I would use the Walmart bathroom but the second I walk into the store they are always cleaning it! That said, the ones around me are never dirty or dangerous. Now some of the convenience stores along the freeway outside of Atlanta? Not so much.
We have two Targets, about a dozen Walmart, including the "neighborhood market" grocery only versions.
Every meaningful way to you nut jobs on the left. Normal people don't live in fantasy land. Gay marriage, trannys, it's all just let's pretend. Get real.
That's interesting. I have far more Targets near me. I wonder if there are regional strengths for each.
Marriage is as valid as the society it takes place it. We wouldn't validate a marriage between a fifty year old and his 10 year old bride here. But there is no logic behind banning two consenting adults from the benefits of marriage (which is ultimately what it comes down to, and basically the reason marriage exists).
Yes and yes. Walmart is cagey enough to play coy when people ask them now specifically because the ignorant sheeple might spend a few more bucks with them. For a while. But yes, they have had the exact same policy for at least five years. So has EVERY OTHER major high traffic retailer except Hobby Lobby. If there are people shppping elsewhere, they are protesting against Target having the temerity to openly state the thing they'd been pretending not to know about all this time, or their complete ignoramuses (which...if they take AFA seriously...)
put your tongue back in your mouth, you're getting drool everywhere. Your Bible cautions against lust.
the dirty little secret is - the Pharisees DO NOT CARE if they hurt their target or force a change. This pledge drive serves one major and two secondary purposes: e-mail list building for future solicitations - they get an e-mail addy for every signature >more donations >more people inflamed to vote for right wing politicians who pander to the Pharisees They don't give two fucks if anything changes because they win either way - if the target caves, or even makes a decision that they can claim was caving...then "we achieved a victory! Send us money where we can win again!" If nothing changes it's "our enemy is strong and resolute, send us money so we can redouble our efforts!" Either way - $bank$
Fixed that for ya. Here's a thought: what would happen if all the people who have no experience with, no knowledge of, no exposure to, no professional training concerning, and no vested interest in a subject actually MET, discussed with and LISTENED to those of us who HAVE these things before forming their firmly help opinion? A radical idea I know but it just might work.
because your pharisee profiteer manipulators told the gullible heard of sheep that listen to them that they needed to be pissed about it. Until then, non-discrimination laws were passed with little or no controversy and people used the restroom consistent with their gender presentation and how they lived their life and no one batted an eye. We didn't make this an issue, the Pharisees did. Maybe you lot shouldn't be so easy to manipulate.
please please PLEASE give it a try and report back to us - truthfully - about how it works out for you. Or, ya know, you could wake up and realize you've been lied to. Either way.
OMG one data point. With no account for any other factors. This is how you cherry pick data to support your point. There should be a warning that no scientific or statistical value can be gained from such a small and off target study.
