Two Marines in dress uniforms went into a Target in Chesapeake, VA.  They were escorted to the door by a Target manager who said they were recruiting!  Yes, that’s Target, the Muslim appeasing company.  Target bows to the altar of political correctness.  They removed Christmas from their “Holiday” signage.  They banned bell ringers from The Salvation Army.  Now they don’t want US Uniformed personnel in their stores.  Are you surprised?  Not me.  Target was originally a MN corporation and they have a MN culture of appeasing the left and Dhimmicrats.

CHESAPEAKE – Two Marines in their dress uniforms – the ones with white hats, khaki shirts and blue trousers with red stripe – say they were accused of recruiting at a Target department store here and told to leave.

“We weren’t recruiting,” according to Cpl. Carlos Rodriguez, 22, who said he returned in October from his second combat tour in Iraq. “I just popped in to say hi to a guy I went to high school with. He works there.”

But an assistant manager who saw Rodriguez and the other Marine apparently thought otherwise and showed them the door, according to both servicemen.

snip…”I didn’t want to make a scene,” Rodriguez said. “We were representing Marines anyway just by wearing the uniform, so I kept my mouth shut.”

Then, Rodriguez said, “this retired Navy SEAL came up behind us and he said, ‘You forget what… country this is,’ and he goes off on (the assistant manager) saying, ‘You have no right to throw them out of Target just because they are talking to one of your employees.’ “

“He got everything out in the open that I was thinking, so I kind of left with a grin,” Rodriguez said.

Target is always the store of last resort for me even though it’s closer than any other stores (read: Walmart)
