You guys get too many ants in your pants.

Concerning the Salvation Army – Target actually donates 3+ million a week. Not to forget that they also donate to neighborhood impact 3+ times a week to ensure there won’t be waste for food.

Sexuality? What ever. Chances are you’ve been helped by a gay employee at Target. It doesn’t matter and the bottom line is it is just a business opportunity. People will be gay if they did or did not sell stuff for pride. Meh.

I know this is unheard of – but there are more perspectives to life than just yours. There are more beliefs than just yours. If you don’t like it, great! Don’t be gay or purchase gay merchandise.

And for the record, I’ve been to the OK. You guys have a massive gay culture in several of your cities. You aren’t free of gays

If you saw the Gwen Stephani line – chances are you would have never equated it to being gay.

I’ll be sure to start shopping there more and will be sure to let others know. We don’t need a bunch of christian whiners there anyways.

I just called Target in Mn and they were unaware of this new campaign. Or at least they acted like they were unaware. I will no longer buy anything from Target again. I am sick of having this crap forced upon me. Piss off the majority to appease the minority. Oh, and a note to Dan G.–Yes the Bible says to love your neighbor but it also says it is an abomination for the same sex to lay with each other.

Very telling. Target banned the Salvation Army Christmas fundraising kettle ringers from all their stores in 2006 cutting off major funding for community services to the disadvantaged families, poor children and elderly yet they decide to sell promotional gay pride merchandise.

Something like this, a sexual issue has no place being promoted in a family store. Priorities seem pretty screwed up.

I stopped shopping at Target and other mega stores 20 years ago. Support your neighborhood businesses and those who support American values.

Does everything in the “Christian world” revolve around sex and peoples sexual activities? What do you care what any one does in their bedroom? We’re all people. We put our pants on the same way every morning. Some just don a rainbow or signal, showing that they are proud of who they are!
You sound like you still want African Americans to ride int the back of the bus. God says love each other! Let him sort it out. That is not your responsibility.

You people are disgusting. Nobody is asking you to support gays if you don’t but for christ’s sake let people live their own lives. I don’t meddle in your business because you believe in god, so you should mind your own business as well. As far as not shopping there, good riddance, less bigots to have to deal with.

Wow you people are so closed minded. I’m a Target emolyee and I love working for a company that is open minded and embraces people no matter who they choose to love. I will not personally miss your business or ignorance at my store. Go shop at Walmart.

Will not do anymore shopping at Target. Understand that Target’s ‘target’ consumer is not the over sixty crowd; however, with 6 married children (that adds up to 12 in the 35-45 age group) and 21 grandchildren (ages 2 – 20) there will be no more gift card purchases from Target!
