Have You Taken Aim at Target?


Radio host, Glenn Beck, recently shared about an incident involving a man in the women’s restroom at a Target store which brought the entire battle a little closer to home.  Beck told about his makeup artist, Bailey, whose friend encountered the exact scenario that many are worried will become rampant if it is not stopped.  Apparently Bailey’s friend had gone into the women’s restroom at the Target she was in, and a man was inside, leaning up against the wall of the bathroom.  According to Beck, she looked at the man wondering what on earth he was doing there, when he said to her, “I have every right to be here, and you can’t do anything about it.”  She turned around and walked out, said Beck, and reported it to the manager of Target who told her there was nothing they could do.

After sharing the story, Glenn said, “Target refused to remove the creepy guy — not transgender, not dressed as a woman, not using the facilities — from the women’s restroom.”

“This is their own policy,” added Beck.  “This is not the government forcing you to do this. This is Target saying, 'I’m sorry, we can’t do anything about it because it will make him uncomfortable.’ ”

And this is precisely why over 1-million people have signed the petition and pledge to boycott Target until they change their position.  Have you signed the American Family Association petition?  Do it NOW at https://www.afa.net/action-alerts/sign-the-boycott-target-pledge/   If you care about the safety of women and children, sign the petition and cease to shop at Target until they come to their senses and reverse their policy.

  1. We haven't shopped at Target for years ever since they banned the Salvation Army kettles at Christmas time.
