I voted!

"Yes, I support the policy"

If you are going to carry openly, then carry respectfully and demonstrate some common sense and maturity.
That includes all of you yahoos that walk around with your Hi-Point hanging half out of your $5.00 nylon sack you call a holster while wearing your greasy t-shirt that you ripped the sleeves out of. And at least braid your armpit hair. Your husband to.

I support Target's right to make any decision they choose, even if it is the wrong decision.

They lost me when they started having gay pride sales.

I resent the fact that "gay" was stolen from my vocabulary.

It's not really a policy. More like 'good feeling' talk lawyers and pols do to please both groups and change nothing. :welcome:

The poll was poorly constructed. Target can do what they want, but I don't believe that they have done the right thing.

That pole sucks. There are two anti-gun "opinion" options and one option that is an untrue statement that can be used to make pro 2a people look stupid and like we lie. Why don't they offer an "opinion" choice that says "I disagree because I can't use equal force to protect my life if someone is trying to kill me"? Instead the only way to voice your concern is to pick an option that is not true. It doesn't go against my rights, but it is a bad policy.

@Marc: Exactly. And, I imagine that they did it that way on purpose.

I do not agree with any choice on the survey. I will not shop at Target anymore though. I never really went there often to begin with.

I was more dissapointed to see towards the end of the article that Whole Foods banned guns. I am not suprised they did, with all the dirty hippies working there, but I liked going there for local meat and produce. I will miss their fresh baked Black Russian bread most of all.

(shrugs) I would like to see reasonable business decisions made on logic, not emotions...

But I would also like hair, and a few million dollars.

None of this will come to fruition.

Best part? PROGUNNERS HIJACKED THE MSNBC POLL!

Heh-heh... only 38% support the Target ban... over 50% think it infringes!

Won't change a thing, but you know the MSNBC people have a load in their pants over one thing...

How fast, and organized a response can be put out by the Pro-gun community, and how fast, and decisive those receiving that message react.

Suckitbeyatches. I may argue with my pro-gun brothers, but if it's "US" against "THEM"? I'm gonna be right there behind them. Period.

It is down to 50%...three days ago it was over 76%...If it takes the anti-gun people that long on msnbc to get a non-scientific poll down to 50%...we must be winning :gang:
