The only remote “threats” to employees were the bomb threats sent by lgbt activists

Boo Stephanie im so disappointed in your reporting on this issue. The devil loves to sow discord and confusion.

@Stephanie Ruhl please don't forget to discuss the designer who is a known satanist. that's the part thats not being discussed and is a the biggest problem for lots of shoppers. Target was absolutely tonedeaf on this campaign.

Didn't Matt Walsh say something like: "LGBT people don't work 'cause they hate bosses, so they're poor and shoplift. So Target puts pride stuff on stock 'cause they hate straight, white men"? It's like these alt-right characters don't even TRY to make sense anymore…

😂 Not wanting to buy from a company because of your beliefs is terrorism but a trans that threatens the company with bombs is a victim. 😂

There is no need for violence. Just not shopping there will inflict the most damage. And it is people's prerogative. If people don't want to shop there, that is their rightful choice.

"Not speaking the way we want is terrorism"
"Not using personalized pronouns we make up on the spot is genocide"
"Spending your money in a way we disagree with is economic terrorism"
We done with these clowns yet? At what point are we allowed to start locking them up? It's obvious they are trying to incite more violence.

Do these people at this news station realize we're not falling for their lies anymore? These boycotts prove American people are tired of these corporations crap. I think boycotting MSM is in the works.

we don't like child groomers and if Target decides their good with the grooming of children then we'll take our business elsewhere

Amazing how even NOT doing something can label you a terrorist with the unhinged. You can only dismiss these people as deranged.

Leave these employees alone. They dont own the corporation or even a piece of it, they're just working folks like everyone else.

Oh, so now choosing what I want to buy is "economic terrorism"? Talk about orwellian newspeak.

The idiocy of this discussion is so overwhelming. Not every person standing against this push of sexuality to children is even on the right… Let alone the FAR RIGHT… These trigger words they use are false… And the world is starting to wake up…

Let's see pics of some of those 'terrorist' letters? I don't believe it & I don't buy it!! It's just the left being mad about the boycott & making up crap . . as usual!!

The bomb threats were from the lgbtq people. They did that. The left made target close 175 stores because of the riots for almost 2 years. The left did that. The lefitsts are the ones stealing from these stores left and right. Where is this anyone on the rights fault? The right is boycotting with our wallets. Not destroying anything. You people lie like a rug.

OK American people we need a boycott target. Keep boycott in target and never ever shop at target again the only way these companies in corporations are gonna learn is if we the people said we had enough with their nonsense but we have to never be able to shop there again otherwise they don’t care. Don’t get the money back and I’ll go back to what you doing. We have to really hurt them were account that’s make all the stockholders pull out of business and make target for the collapse so the next business doesn’t do the same thing.

Hord's of thug looters stealing everything they can carry out of stores every single day triggers me a lot more that speculating there may possibly be some violence at target stores.

Anyone who believes that Target removed some of the items and then put the pride displays at the back of the store because of threats to employees is incredibly naïve. It has nothing to do with threats to employees. It was a purely economic decision. Target understands that they cannot operate successfully if they alienate 30% of their customer base to cater to 2%. It’s not complicated to understand. I think it’s hysterical that when the right does a boycott it’s terrorism. The left and cancel culture is literally boycotts for any random thing. They have created a culture of boycotts. Why is that not terrorism?
This is hypocrisy at its best..

When I was younger, I was given some prophetic and perplexing wisdom and advice by a scholar that I didn't understand in my youth: " Beware the fake journalist with the blue glasses." The prophecy was just revealed.
It's amazing these people can actually believe the bs that comes out of their mouths.

Everyone, get on LinkedIn. Pretend to look for jobs. Any and all companies that have the degenerate flag as their company logo, if you have any association with it, try to avoid it. It doesn’t have to happen overnight but figure out how to replace them all. Fk them and fk WEF, BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street and their ESG bullchit!
Target them all and BDS!
Edit: and yes Fox News is one of their pawns too!
