A newly constructed Target store is shown in San Diego, California, May 17, 2016.
The American Family Association, the group behind the large-scale boycott against Target for its transgender bathroom policies, has warned parents to keep their children away from the retail giant for back-to-school shopping.
“For months, the American Family Association has worked hard to remind families that Target’s policy means that a man can simply say he ‘feels like a woman today’ and enter the women’s restroom, even if young girls or women are already present,” said AFA President Tim Wildmon in a statement.
“Target’s policy is exactly how sexual predators get access to their victims. And headlines this summer have proven this is the case. Target’s lack of action on this issue has proven that its main concern is not the safety of customers, but rather, political correctness.”
