15 State Attorneys General Write Letter Telling Target to 'Be Mindful of Its Obligations' to LGBTQ+ Community
The letter also urged Target 'to double down on inclusivity, reject hate in all its forms, and stand firm in the face of intimidation and discrimination.'
Well, I hope target understands that those 15 AGs aren’t the ones keeping them in business.
You’re right. The AGs aren’t the ones keeping them in business.
They’re “protecting” their business.
So now the business has to “pay” for their “protection”.
Are the 15 AGs part of the same “familia”?
Very astute
Exactly.
During the lockdowns in blue states, Target was able to stay in business and make money that could have gone to Mom & Pop businesses.
Make sense now?
But they could be the ones putting them out of business.
Nah, we're doing that by avoiding the place like it's a drag strip club.
Correct. I will not give my business to them and haven’t in long time.
Law Enforcement telling a corporation what to do. Do i need to explain Authoritarianism again?
this says it all! ^^^^
BuT tRuMp Is a FaScIsT
Merger of State & Corporations?
-//- yes
Since when does a retailer have an obligation to any community?
Since the bakers were forced to bake a cake for queers wedding.
Valid point.
Would have been the worse Tabasco cake every delivered?
Once again, glad to see that my state, Tennessee, isn't a part of this madness. But the letter DOES reveal by the signature blocks the states that I have no interest in going to anytime soon.
Amen, born and raised here and a blessing it has panned out to be.
We know two different families, one from Chicago and one from Long Island NY, who have moved here to East TN because they simply couldn't stand where they lived. Both of them a very happy here and both are also very conservative. This is the only kind of immigrant Tennessee needs or wants right now.
Yes sir, we've had quite a flood of Cali folk into SE TN. Hearing them talk even in lines at the vet n such, strangers from other places talking about how good of drivers we are around here. Meanwhile, all of us locals are going...that's why everyone drives so aggressive now lol.
Hiring a true patriot right now, that came down from Colorado, for the same reasons. So you are right, it's not all bad. But it'd sure be nice if there could be some vetting of sorts given, not very America though. It just makes no sense for Dem types to move to a government they want to be under, just to want it to be "voted" into the dirt. But they don't operate on sense, just instinct instilled in them by the reprobate minds controlling their media intake. They will be confronted like they've never experienced before.
"Liberty is never more than one generation away from extinction." -- Ronald Reagan
The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. America fell asleep after WWII and let the snakes in. First under the ruse of "tolerance" until that became "mandatory." Once we win this current war for our minds, we must never fall asleep again. We and our children and our children's children must always hold their representatives accountable.
If it's true that there are "obligations" then that implies that a contract exists.
I am actually taking this as good news. The left is in a panic right now. They are worried that companies will fear their customers and shareholders more than the gay rights bunch. The Gay Bunch's intimidation and fear tactics are losing their grip. If we continue to see effective boycotts then the left's agenda of using woke companies to push their agenda will be completely derailed.
Obligations? What is there somekind of law for this esg crap?
where is the obligation to help the homeless? i don't see any AG's writing letters on their behalf.
What about being mindful of the majority of the population?
Sit back, lads, and let the rats show themselves. Take notes.
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison co-led a group of 15 AGs in penning an open letter to retailer Target “urging the company to be “mindful of its obligations” to the LGBTQIA+ community. The letter also urged Target “to double down on inclusivity, reject hate in all its forms, and stand firm in the face of intimidation and discrimination.” Other Attorney General signatories on the letter included Rob Bonta from California, Aaron Ford of Nevada, Kristen Mayes of Arizona, and Brian Schwalb of the District of Columbia, among others. The letter stated that Target could use various state laws in “efforts to protect its staff and customers in the face of hate-based intimidation, harassment, threats, or attacks.”

it is a concern when they piss off the alphabet. conservatives are not a threat to bodily injury because we use our wallets, the left burns and loots.
This sounds like Walmart is paying them to do a psyop in order to put target out of business because this will only make the boycott worse. I think they actually understand the strength of our resolve and therfore are using it for reasons bigger than we can imagine. Who owns target?
I'm on the fence with Walmart, myself.
The left hates, and has hated, Walmart for decades and had a love affair with Target. Personally, I think some of that stems from the fact that Walmart hasn't went all-in on leftist causes (yes, they have some gay merch, but they aren't usually front and center and aren't, from what I've seen, targeting kids). They aren't necessarily "friends" of conservatives, but they also aren't friends of liberals, either.
I'm not saying Walmarts some great company, but for some items they're the best place to find things without supporting Target.
The Walmart in my town had a drag makeup display right in front of the main entrance for a while. I don't know how long it was there because I don't go there too often, and I don't go to the kids clothing section either.
Hmm🤔🧐
They have an obligation to pander degeneracy to our children in the kids clothing section? That’s weird
What possible obligation does a company owe to this extremely small percentage of the population? And why do some states think they can use the threat of law enforcement with lethal force behind them to threaten them?
These monsters are straight up so evil and sick it's hard to comment. What else can you say about this Insanity that the satanists haven't already exposing just by the words they pen and the words they say.
Ok one thing I could comment on is motive. What's motivating these swamp creatures? Soros threatening?
True Patriots never miss their target....
That list should be labeled the Top Priority for Removal List.
Surprised that commie Dana Nessel (MI) missed out on this action.
What the actual fuck? State Attorneys General are advocates for the mental disorders in our society now?
Exactly what are the obligations to the alphabet mafia?
Government overreach grows talons!
Now the other 35 need to write letters telling them to fuk off.
I don't know, but I'd feel comfortable betting that a number of these AG's have received George Soros funding....just a hunch.
An obligation is not a law. So, Target can ignore that bs.
They didnt even articulate what these supposed obligations are.
There are no laws that force commerce or respect for any behavior. They fabricate new laws based on perceived discrimination.
their only obligation to them is to respect the same rights everyone has.
exactly, it's not like the transvestites can't wear regular clothing. it's not like Target is saying to a man buying 3x dresses, that he's not allowed.
they are shoving this rainbow shit down our throats. it's time to take our rainbow back, some how, it's soiled now, not sure we can.
Isn't it a violation of the first amendment for AGs to be using their authority to pressure companies to promote speech?
Hope they write to all Churchs within their state, too. Never should a church bend a knee to teachings not in line with the Bible, so the AG's ought to write letters to the churches and express this belief.
That would violate the first amendment establishment clause.
Only this group, why not do it for blacks? Juneteenth just passed.
Ferguson is a POS who want to be our next Gov. Mandatory all mail in voting and mass exodus of conservatives from Washington - he will likely succeed.
