Hallowe’en Horrors? But Are Target Toilets Scarier?

With  the approach of Hallowe’en, Americans tend to flock to shops for decorations and all the other eerie paraphernalia that are required properly to celebrate the annual ghostly-ghouly event.

Costumes too, witches, zombies and vampires galore are in great demand.

But these imaginary horrors are nothing compared to the nightmare threat…

……

….posed to women and children by chain-store Target’s eagerness to give perverts access to the wrong restrooms on their premises.

So it’s timely to remind American readers of the admirable campaign mounted by the AFA against the irresponsible bosses whose frightening restroom and fitting room policy continues to put women and children’s safety at risk.

For a year and a half, AFA has been encouraging shoppers to #BoycottTarget after the retailer publicized it would allow men free and unrestricted access into women’s fitting rooms and restrooms.

In response, more than 1.5 million shoppers have signed the pledge to boycott Target stores…

……….

We hope you will not be shopping at Target!

As we have stated many times, our worries stem from both the real and potential threat that predators and voyeurs, or anyone with evil intentions, would take advantage of the Target bathroom policy to harm women and children –

– and we have plenty of incidents to show that they have.

AFA has outlined just 10 examples that show why Target should immediately rescind its dangerous policy and keep men out of women’s bathrooms and dressing rooms.

As long as Target continues to allow men free and unrestricted access into women’s dressing rooms and restrooms, these sexual violations against women and little girls will continue to occur.

TAKE ACTION

There are still people you know who are unfamiliar with Target’s dangerous policy. Will you help spread the warning and let your family and friends know about the Target boycott?

Pity Purwodadi – Vampirical Beasts Prowl In Java?

 In the backwoods of Java, something strange is happening.

Something wicked this way comes?

=====

A most alarming story in the ever-amazing Jakarta Post, about the residents of the hitherto obscure township of Purwodadi, who have been coming across goats fallen prey to an alleged attack by an unknown predator, which many suspected to be a blood-sucking herd of wild animals.

http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2017/09/11/yogyakarta-village-shocked-by-chupacabra-like-attack.html

Scary stuff – and one feels sorry for the villagers, whose livestock  has been turning up  with bite marks on their neck and legs and … no blood left in the animals’ body.

But while the JP headline tells us where Purwodadi is…

Yogyakarta village shocked by Chupacabra-like attack

…its reference to Chupacabra is absolutely baffling.

I have read and re-read the entire report, and NOWHERE can I discern any definition of what Chupacabra actually is!

Indeed, whoever wrote and edited the report must be an afficionado of Latin American folklore…

…and must assume all readers share his or her expertise, because, despairing of any explanation within the odd newspaper’s website, I turned to wikipedia, and lo…

The chupacabra or chupacabras is a legendary creature in the folklore of parts of the Americas, with its first purported sightings reported in Puerto Rico.
