Calls For Target Boycott After Man Exposes Himself to Child In Women’s Restroom

National big-box retailer Target was badly burned in the public relations arena two years ago when it decided that it would choose sides in the culture wars by announcing that the chain’s restrooms would not be limited to the gender of birth for shoppers but rather their gender identity.

The policy change came during the big push at the end of the eight-year Obama horror show to throw open women’s restrooms to not only transgenders but potentially perverts and child molesters and Target paid dearly at the time with conservatives choosing to do their shopping elsewhere as well as Christian organizations calling to boycott the corporation.

Things died down after the suits at corporate headquarters mollified critics by spending millions on adding a third single bathroom to stores but the controversy has once again reared its head after a pervert exposed himself to a young girl at a Chicago-area location last weekend.

Via Business Insider “Outraged shoppers threaten to boycott Target after a man exposes himself to a young girl in a store’s bathroom”:

Target is facing widespread outrage and calls for a boycott after a man exposed himself to a girl in the women’s bathroom of one of its stores.

The evangelist Franklin Graham slammed Target for the incident in a Facebook post on Wednesday and urged his more than 6.7 million followers to boycott the company in response. In the post, Graham blamed the incident on the company’s bathroom policy, which was changed two years ago to allow transgender customers to use the bathroom or fitting room that matched their gender identity.
Though a suspect has not been named and there was no indication the man was transgender, Graham’s post has been shared more than 58,000 times and has generated more than 17,000 comments, most of which expressed support for a Target boycott.

Target says the man who exposed himself was drunk when he entered the women’s bathroom at one of its Chicago stores and pushed into a stall that was being used by a young girl, pushed her out of the way, and used the bathroom before leaving. The police are still searching for the man, according to the Chicago NBC affiliate WMAQ.

“At Target, the safety and security of our guests is critically important to us,” a Target spokeswoman, Danielle Schumann, told WMAQ. “Immediately after a guest notified us of this incident, we called law enforcement and provided them with video footage from our store entrance to help with their investigation.”

Additional details via Chicago ABC affiliate ABC 7 “Police: Man exposed himself to child in South Loop Target restroom”:

Police are looking for a man who exposed himself to a child last Sunday at a store in the South Loop.

A mother was with her young child at about 4:08 p.m. in the women’s restroom at the Target at 1154 S. Clark when the man entered and insisted he had to go to the bathroom, according to Chicago Police.

He then pushed into the stall where the child was and exposed his genitals before leaving the bathroom, police said.

He was described by police as black with a dark complexion, about 30 to 40 years old, 5-foot-10 to 6 feet tall, 170 to 190 pounds and wearing a red jacket, dark-colored hat, gray pants and sunglasses.

Reverend Franklin Graham is calling for Christians to send Target a message by boycotting the store and no, this is not the same as David Hogg’s cyberbullying to crush free speech but rather a legitimate response to a retailer that should have seen this coming when it decided to mix business with politics.

Perverts are perverts and they will prowl but why would anyone make it easier for them?

Now a poor child has been traumatized by some freak wagging his wiener in her face and Target is left holding the bag – again.
