TABC sign or not, you guys must have missed the entire rest of the thread.
No, I didn't. It appears to me that Target is bending over backwards to try and accommodate gun owners. The least we can do is to let them.

No, it was not the legal blue sign. It was a small, red, similarly worded sign. There was absolutely NOTHING asking me not to legally CC in the store.So was it the blue TABC sign that Texas law requires them to post because they sell alcohol for off premise consumption?

You must be a graduate of the George Orwell School of Doublespeak. "Leave your guns out of our stores" is really your idea of bending over backwards to try and accommodate gun owners?
This whole "Read between the lines" theory that Target really doesn't care about guns is wishful thinking/denial. They want you to leave your guns out of their stores. That's why they said so. Shop there all you want, but don't try to convince me of this ridiculous theory that Target is really coming at us sideways with some sort of pro-gun attitude when it should be plainly obvious they are not friends of gun owners.
They picked a side and we weren't on it. Now why should we continue to give them our money when they have plenty of competition that has remained neutral? What other organizations which condemn my principles should I continue to needlessly support?
Do you understand that Target will lose its TABC license if they allow open carry in their stores?
Given that fact, what would you have them do?
Which fails to explain why their new gun policy effects every store in the country and not just Texas, as well as the fact they do not want CC, either....
They are anti-gun. Believe it or not.
Can't argue with such ideology!
ETA: you never answered the question of, given their TABC license, what would you have Target do?
Your idea works in post 142 works.
Now you can answer my question: Again, why should we continue to give them our money when they have plenty of competition that has remained neutral? What other organizations which condemn my principles should I continue to needlessly support?
I'm failing to understand why it's such a big deal to NOT shop at Target.
They don't sell ammo, and I can get stuff made just as crappy at Walmart for less, and they at least try to have ammo.
I can't answer your question because I don't know what organizations you support.
I also can't argue with OCT ideologues, since their minds are already closed!
That was two questions, actually. You conveniently ignored the first.
I havent (and won't) read the whole thread. Are any Target stores marked 30 06?
Does Target donate to anti-gun groups?
Trying to determine if they are truly anti gun or just dont want their yoga pants wearing, Starbucks drinking, SUV driving middle aged moms scared.
"Respectfully request" placates to the anti's while it should not offend the respectful carrier. Rise above it, shut your pie hole, conceal it, and carry on. Simple enough.
Seriously though, why would anybody shop at Target anyway? It's just like Wal-Mart but with slightly fewer barefoot customers.
