It's not just implication. The Salvation Army is indeed a religious organization, they are evangelical missionaries. My family knew people who were very active in it and they even were had rank and uniforms and the whole bit. The wife joked about how she outranked her husband. But in the case of Target, it's just being fair. They are evenly applying a policy now while they had unequitably been giving preferential treatment to the Salvation Army. Of course, the SA is all up in arms about it and trying to paint Target as being against them, forgetting that they've been the favored group exclusively for years. -Kevin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:136433 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
