Uh, actually, that's exactly what's happening here. People are exercising their freedom to not support these causes by boycotting stores that would support those causes which they are against.

**** this is a dumb thread

I'm going to go shopping at Target and buy some Red Wings tomorrow just as a big **** you to the idiocy in this thread.

Way to ignore the fact that the real problem is lobbies existing.

FYI, the majority of Americans oppose gay marriage, abortion and support Arizona's right to enforce the law. Good on them. But I guess this doesn't matter when you're striking poses on the internet, trying to look all hip and 'progressive'.

The naturalistic fallacy is alive and well.

I warned Paul Bunyan that he should size down one. He didn't listen, apparently.

A good amount of people boycotting would rather have no large corporations trying to buy elections regardless of whether it is right/left wing. Not sure why you'd think it's hilarious someone would not want to financially support a company that provides monetary contributions to candidates they do not support.

In 2009, Emmer sponsored a bill that would shorten the period of license revocation for driving while impaired and for refusing to take a sobriety test.

It has been revealed that Emmer has a history of several DUIs.

The Minnesota House campaign of Rep. Tom Emmer donated to the ministry of You Can Run But You Cannot Hide Intl., Inc., according to the press secretary for Emmer's gubernatorial campaign. Emmer is one of several Republican leaders involved with the ministry of Bradlee Dean, who leads a hard rock band that brings its message of Jesus Christ into public schools and recently affirmed the practice of Muslim countries executing gays and lesbians.

Target also contributed to the Prop 8 fight in California.

Earlier this year, an eating disorder clinic called the Emily Program was attempting to open a new facility in an affluent part of Orono, a town of 7,500 people west of Minneapolis. But opposition from some neighbors, as well as the influence of Target CEO Gregg Steinhafel "” who has drawn national criticism for orchestrating political contributions that go to Republican gubernatorial candidate Tom Emmer "” helped kill the facility.
