This woman has a really weird thought process (or lack thereof). He is a doodle-dasher, so he might have a weapon? What? Where is the connection between waving his unit around, and having weapons?

I hollered, "Don't look, Ethel!" But it was too late. She'd already been mooned. Flashed her right there in front of the shock absorbers.

I hadn't thought of that song in decades...For the younger members - in 1974 it became the 'thing' to streak in public and Ray Stevens made this song...It went to number 1 and stayed there for a while...I was just a kid, but I remember hearing it on the radio and singing along

Why call the cops? he's their Target audience.

Seems like it's been awhile, I had completely forgotten about Target.

Don't think about it at all, just got in the habit of driving by and shopping in other stores.

They didn't want my buisness, I just moved on.
Similarly the NFL thumbed their nose at me, I am just moving on.

Any buisness that decides to jump on these Leftist causes, does not need my money, I can make better use of my time and spent money elsewhere.

I don't mean to derail the thread and I don't mean to pick a fight. But I'm curious. Is the Christians' object to vibrators (a) that a woman shouldn't get physical pleasure except when she's with a man, (b) that kids who are with their parents in the store shouldn't be exposed to the concept of sex, or (c) something else?

A couple of questions for you:
Are you married? No.

Do you have children? No, unless you count two of an ex-GF's daughters that pretty much see me that way. Then again, they're both in their mid-20's now.

Are you a believer in answering your children's questions honestly? Yes, however see the previous answer.

Drop me a line when your kids ask you about the vibrators there on Aisle 4B... my e-mail is in my profile

Sounds like (b).

No, your're missing the boat on this issue.

The heart of the conflict is this: sexualizing children.

Pre-adolescent kids shouldn't have their heads filled with issues of sexuality. Let them be innocent.

It's not possible for them to be innocent when they can't even walk down an isle in a department store without seeing sex toys for sale. Why should a 6-year old be induced to ask questions about what a dildo is, how it's used, and why mommy likes it? Why should a kid be induced to ask about what an artificial pussy is, how it's used, and why daddy likes it? These things have no place in a child's mind, no place in his/her world at all.

It's not rocket science; not hard to understand at all. Keep your sex toys away from my kids.

It wasn’t just target that took a hit. Most department store retailers took a bath. Amazon is eating everyone’s lunch. I’m not sure how much the boycott really had to do with it. Nobody is boycotting all the other national retailers that did or are going belly up this year.

I still shop at target cause I could give a fuck who pisses where. I haven’t used a public rest room in years. My time spent in medicine has trained my bladder to only need emptying every 10 or so hours.

At our last fish fry, one of the guys was going through some old records and playing them. One of those records was just that song.

I haven't heard it in forever! All of us older guys was just laughing about this song. The kids, well they were puzzled! LoL.... that just made us older guys laugh more.

P.S.

I'm glad Target is having troubles, doing stupid leftists bullshit for .3% of the population, mental population at that. I haven't set foot in there since the moronic move. They don't like my money, as I'm the wrong demographic. I'm a white, Christian male, right wing gun toter.

I'm wondering where most of you guys shop, because the vast majority of national chain businesses support stupid leftist bullshit.

If you're not shopping at Target because they support leftists, and you're shopping somewhere else that does, that doesn't really prove any point (aside from some possible hypocrisy).

What's even worse is if you're doing this due to some bathroom policy. I spend a fair amount of time out in public, and as a result, inside of public restrooms. In all of my years, in all of the places, in all parts of town, I still have yet to see a single person "in the wrong restroom" despite any policies that may or may not exist. Maybe you guys live in Trangenderville, and St. Louis simply doesn't have any of them.

I have encountered two customers who were. Funny story about the last one. It's after dark and we're delivering a gun safe. We always call the customer ahead of time, so as we back into the driveway the homeowner is already opening the garage door. I get out to go introduce myself and see where everything is going while my partner remains in the truck. I go back to get in.

Him: Nice rack!

Me: You think?

Him: Well it's a bit dark out, but they look nice in the mirror.

Me: They're fake.

Him: You think?

Me: I'm pretty sure.

Him: I don't know. How can you tell?

Me: It's a dude.

Yep your right.

Just a matter of proportion to how outspoken buisneses are on their leftist views.
I don't look to be offended, but as I recall the Target CEO doubled down on his leftist views.

It's like politicians. Vote for the one you dislike the least, gotta shop somewhere.
Oh, and yes I think the drop in Targets stock value did prove a point.

^^^ This.

I don't try to peer into men's souls, but if they are going to be jack asses about it, they can do it without my money.

This is me. I don't go out of my way to research and dig into things like this, but when they go out of their way to tell me they don't want my business, I comply.

It's like the NFL - last year they had a couple of guys kneeling, it wasn't being endorsed by owners or coaches and I kept watching. This year they have actively made it a point to say that they support and encourage this behavior and they don't want my support - so I complied. I haven't watched a single game or any updates on the NFL - don't know any team's record.

There are a handful of companies and actors/actresses who are outspoken and said they don't want my support. I don't give it to them thinking it's going to end their career or put a company out of business, it's just a personal thing on my part. Tell me you don't want my business, I'm not going to force my dollars on you. Simple.

There are many companies run by democrats or actors who are liberal - as long as they don't go full blown anti-America or say they don't want my business, I'm fine with them having a different point of view. I work with people from all walks of life - especially in my charity work and again I am fine with that.

Target issued an official statement that said if you disagreed with their position they did not want your business. I disagree with them and haven't spent a dollar in their store since. They asked, so I complied.

I have the same outlook as Kimber, Fenris, and Bama. If you're a business that promotes your Leftist policies, then my dollars will be spent elsewhere. If you keep your mouth shut about politics then you could be the second coming of Stalin and I'll probably spend money with you because, unless it's something egregious like the NFL fiasco, I don't go out of my way to not do business with a person or a company.

The one exception to that is if it says Made in China. If I can find an alternative made elsewhere or I can do without it, I won't buy the item. If I truly need (not want) whatever the product is, then I'll grudgingly get it.

Regarding the bathroom policy, it's ridiculous to say that because one has not yet experienced someone being in the wrong bathroom according to their sex that it is a non-issue. No matter how much time one spends in public restrooms, one is not in all restrooms/changing rooms/etc. everywhere during all working hours of all businesses. Consider also that besides a person's inability to be omnipresent in public restrooms and changing areas, the size and demographics of a particular community also play a part in the likelihood of such an event occuring. Some areas of the country will be more susceptible than others, cities more likely than small towns, etc.

All this policy does is cater to a miniscule component of the population for no other reason than to allow them the pretense of thinking they don't have a mental problem and it opens up the possibility of abuse of the policy to those bent on criminal mischief such as what has been posted earlier in this thread.
