If you are so freaked out by merchandise not meant for you like glasses that say "Cheers Queers" and especially swimsuits made for trans women, just shop at Hobby Lobby. Don't threaten Target employees and make up rumors. (And even if the store were selling bathing suits for trans children, so what? It's no one's business if a child is trans except their family's and trans kids are allowed to have swimsuits too.)

@MariaHill I am not a Christian. Do they see me raging in the aisle over Christmas decorations? Or Easter candy? NO. They need to get over themselves.

I have to look at Jesus fish and hear gospel music and see lots of things aren’t part of my own life in a mall. Why can’t people mind their own business? Any opportunity to bully someone.

@TonyStark @MariaHill “Christian leaders” determined that this is the issue de jour and right-wing politicians gravitated to the subject in their attempt to seek votes. The same folks don’t recall divorce & sex outside of marriage were deemed major sins. That is until their many peccadillos and infidelities came to light and the need arose to find a new rallying cry in an attempt to retain power & influence. Modern Pharisees and Sadducees.

@TonyStark @MariaHill Exactly. I’m not raging about the absurdity that is religion. If someone wants to believe impossible things, have at it, but leave me out of your delusions.
