Target reported that its employees faced threats over its new Pride collections celebrating the LGBTQ+ community and responded by pulling some of the merchandise that had caused the most "significant confrontational behavior" to protect the safety and wellbeing of its employees, according to a statement from the company.
Extremism experts and LGBTQ advocates warned that removing merchandise could be seen as a success by anti-LGBTQ extremists and violent protesters which could lead to copycat behavior threatening the already marginalized community.
Several Targets also received bomb threats over Memorial Day weekend related to the controversy, according to Cleveland 19 News. The threats reportedly called for the return of LGBTQ+ items to the shelves, according to the local news outlet, which said it received the bomb threats.
the freaks call in bomb threats but anti freaks are a danger..stupid is forever.
The lgbt&qs make up a tiny, insignificant percentage of the total population, but if you just guessed their numbers from watching new TV programs and new movies, you would guess that over half of the population was queer.
seems like the pendulum is swinging. went from a death penalty in the middle ages to prison until recently and now its gone past live and let live into marginalizing hetero sexuals. it will eventually center out but when?
Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

The bomb threats were called in by left wing activist for the stores taking down some of the gay merch. The fake news is lying again. When asked to prove some of the threats to their employees that must be on the security cameras they couldn’t.

I think it's Target covering their tracks as they realized they stepped on a hornets nest. Shifting blame in an attempt to not alienate the LBQBBQEIEIO crowd.
I stopped shopping at Target many years ago when they refused to allow Salvation Army bell ringers at Christmas time and allowing men to use women's rest rooms. Nothing they do would surprise me anymore.
Are we living in a time when intelligent people ae silenced so stupid people won't be offended?
