Which Stores Are You Boycotting This Thanksgiving? List One

Some quotations from watchdog sites regarding those businesses which support abortion, contraception or ssm. Please boycott these businesses and tell them why. The first one, Kohl's has changed its policy and responded to consumers. God bless that company.

Kohl’s has improved its ranking for wholesome entertainment and demonstrated its pro-life commitment by cutting support for Planned Parenthood. from Faith Driven Consumer

Kroger partners with United Way and Susan G. Komen, which give to Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the nation. Additionally, it has an 85 percent score from the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index for the inclusion of homosexuality in the workplace, and is a significant supporter of the homosexual lifestyle through sponsoring and promoting events. from Faith Driven Consumer

The Gap Inc. directly supports abortion through donations to Planned Parenthood and has a perfect score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index, which tracks the promotion of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender political and social agenda in the workplace. High scores on this scale indicate a strong tilt away from a biblical view of sexuality, marriage and family. The Gap Inc. is a leading clothing retailer in the United States and also owns Banana Republic and Old Navy. While Gap excels in corporate philanthropy and responsibility, its wholesome entertainment rating has declined recently. Gap’s recent support of Planned Parenthood and its perfect rating from the Human Rights Campaign – indicating a strong support of the homosexual and transgender political agenda, including same-sex marriage – point to a need for significant improvement before it can be considered a faith-compatible company.from Faith Driven Consumer

Some Macy’s affiliates have donated to Planned Parenthood as well as to United Way, which indirectly supports Planned Parenthood in some localities. Additionally, Macy’s received a 90 percent score from the Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index, which tracks the promotion of the homosexual and transgender political and social agenda in the workplace. These stances indicate a tilt away from the biblical worldview on issues involving life, sexuality, marriage and the natural and traditional family.
Macy’s is one of the largest department stores in the nation. Although Macy’s has responded to the urging of biblically minded Christians to use “Christmas” in its advertising materials, it has recently sponsored unwholesome entertainment on television. In addition, Macy’s now actively campaigns for the homosexual and transgender political agenda and has a whole section of its website devoted to gay “pride” and history.

Hershey’s partners with United Way, which indirectly supports Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the nation. Hershey’s also has a relatively high 85 percent score from the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index for the inclusion of homosexuality in the workplace and supports the homosexual agenda through various efforts, including its homosexual employee resource group called PRISM. It also has not been transparent in the past concerning labor exploitation policies.Given Hershey’s strong, direct support for homosexuality and indirect support of Planned Parenthood as well as the lack of transparency in labor practices, there is much work to be done for it to move in a more faith-friendly direction. Faith Driven Consumer recognizes Russell Stover Candies to be the more faith-friendly option for purchasing chocolate.from Faith Driven Consumer

JC Penney has donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation and United Way, both of which indirectly support Planned Parenthood, the nation’s leading abortion provider. It has also received a nearly perfect score on the Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index -- indicating strong support for the homosexual and transgender political and social agenda -- a stance that leans away from the biblical worldview on sexuality, marriage and family.  Here, JC Penney has come out in support for same-sex marriage. 
JC Penney is a leading department store that in recent years tried to appeal to new consumer markets but in the process alienated its core, natural base of traditional and faith-based consumers. A series of changes at the top ranks of leadership have led to instability and ongoing uncertainty for the retailer as it struggles to figure who it is. JC Penney has come out in support of same-sex marriage and can become a more faith-compatible company by moving toward an inclusive embrace of those who value the pro-life cause as well as the natural and traditional family.
