It has now been over a month since Target announced that it would begin to allow male customers and employees into women’s restrooms and fitting rooms as long as they “identify” as women. The policy applies to female employees and customers as well. Following the April 19 announcement, the retail giant received praise from many in the LGBT community and on the far left.
Much of that praise, however, has been drowned out by the #BoycottTarget movement, which has garnered over 1.25 million signatures on its boycott pledge. Clearly, Target massively underestimated the public’s tolerance for left-wing, politically correct nonsense.
Research estimates that transgender people make up roughly 0.25% of the American population, and apparently a significant number of the remaining 99.75% of Americans are not comfortable sharing restrooms or changing rooms — or allowing their children to do so — with people who feel they were “assigned” the wrong gender at birth.
Since its announcement, Target’s sales have seen a sharp decline and CEO Brian Cornell knows the cause. Climate change of course. To read what Cornell had to say regarding the company’s sales plummet, and why the weather — not its bathroom policy and massive boycott — is to blame, continue reading on the next page:
really hasn’t the myth of global warming which allegedly leads to climate change been around for more then 30 years? how come it hasn’t affected your business till after you made your announcement? also heard hershey park in jumping on the ban wagon guess they will be the next business to have it’s stock plummet. didn’t realize 3 percent of people are more important then the 97 percent of us.
Well, I will continue to watch the weather as I continue to boycott my local Target store. See, we can all blame climate change for it, but it doesn’t make it true.
I really L’d o L at this one. he he he How did “climate change” affect Target negatively, yet WalMart has prospered during the same period? Heck, Trump’s businesses all showed very nice increases during this period, too. Must be a very localized climate! A climate of liberalistic mental disorder!
