According to LifeSiteNews, the merchandise included for the “Take Pride” campaign will be “rainbow-adorned shirts, pants, shorts, swim trunks, iPhone cases, and other items.”
“For each PRIDE item sold, Target will donate 50 percent of the purchase price to GLSEN (the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network),” says the flyer. Target also issued a statement to accompany its rollout:
“We’re making our message loud and clear: Target proudly stands with the LGBT community … through all that we do,” Laysha Ward, Target’s executive vice president and chief corporate responsibility officer said, citing “volunteer efforts” and “partnerships” with homosexual groups such as the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network “to the very products we carry in our stores and online.”

Still with the pride?
Well, that means it’s time for Norm MacDonald!!! (This version of his gay pride joke is much more graphic.)
…wow. okay. I guess target wishes to continue it’s downward spiral and force propaganda upon us.
Yup. Nothing makes better business sense than targeting (excuse the pun) a wee little minority of the country while lifting your leg on everybody else.
How in the name of sweet fancy Moses is that “corporate responsibility?”
Target MBA, yes we may loose more customers, however we’ll make that up by selling more merchandise to the few that are left.
It explains the bathroom thingy….
The bathroom/changing room thingy. Target is dead to me.
Stupid moron of a CEO. I stopped shopping at Target during the bathroom issue. Now I know I will never darken their doors again. I hope they go bankrupt.
They’re actually laying off workers right now (I know some people at their HQ)
Strange company. I used to work for them but we didn’t part on very good terms. 😉
I can’t double boycott them. Now what? They are already in a retail ice age. Drop the Starbucks inside and make it a mosque.
I’ll stick with Duluth Trading Company. Better
Quality anyway. Yeah. They sell onesies. They’re called overalls
Target is dead to me. A bunch of deviants and perverts run this unGodly immoral store. I’m still trying to get my wife from ever wandering in there again.
When they wouldn’t let the Salvation Army set up and ring their bells…i knew i’d never go there.
“Closets are for clothes.” Hmmmm, and women’s restrooms are for men who think they are women, queers, perverts, etc., at least that’s what Target thinks.
The gays won’t go, their sales won’t increase that day and they’ll end up giving away 50% of a purchase price, not the profit, the purchase price for nothing. Target is on it’s way out and I suspect that they probably have two years at most before it’s Chapter 13 for a year then closed the next.
I stopped shopping at Target after the bathroom issue, but hubby still shopped there because of the close proximity to his mom’s facility. Shared this story with him ands he’s now on the NEVER TARGET train. 🙂
Going the way of K-Mart. Good riddance!
Only in Target’s rules of poker does a pair of queens beat a straight.
… wonder if they’ll sell faggots that month?
(a ‘faggot’ is a bundle of sticks used to light fires)
My local Target has a Chik Fil-A out front. One day, Target will be gone, and Chik Fil-A will be there to welcome the new tenants.
Why don’t companies fire the wackos at the top and save their businesses?
Target’s finished. Doubling down on the 1.5% market.
I do feel sorry for the hard working employees, who don’t make policy.
Another vanishing anchor chain that will leave Malls empty and dying.
They can become homeless shelters.
Or really oversized chicken coops.
Thank you for this piece. Target is a no-go zone for my family. This just helps to reinforce why.
This thing called target? You mean the ones at the
gun range?
Rainbows for 30 days, 24/7?
That was not G_d’s intention.

This doesn’t seem to be merely a series of stupid accidents. It’s like someone at the top knows what would destroy the company in the eyes of many Americans and is trying to do exactly that. Very strange.
I’m taking pride in not shopping at Target anymore, for a long time now.
I would rather site see at a Walmart. It’s the best people watching place out of any big box store and is half as expensive as Targgee.
Dear Target,
Great decision. Thanks a bunch.
Sincerely, Walmart
Is the Target board of directors shorting their stock?
