UPDATE: The truth about Target
popular.info
On September 26, Target announced it was closing nine stores "because theft and organized retail crime are…contributing to unsustainable business performance." Target said that before making the decision to shutter the stores, it had "invested heavily in strategies to prevent and stop theft and organized retail crime." But ultimately, Target claimed, those efforts failed to make those stores "successful."

Never trust the corporations excuses.

PS: I wasn’t sure if this was a good fit for this community, but I couldn’t think of another. Any suggestions?

    Because the immediate thought from the plebs is “the blacks shut down my favorite store by robbing it all the time” and they go vote GOP harder so that Target gets lower corporate/wealth taxes etc.

    I know this because I live in a red state and anytime the locals hear about a store closing “due to theft” a sea of slurs gets echoed at full force.
