Target Refuses to Carry New Book by Conservative Mark Levin Out of Fear of Offending Democrats …UPDATE: Target Reverses Course, Will Sell Levin’s Book
Target stores have let Mark Levin’s publisher know that they will not carry his new book because they’re worried about offending Democrats.

Designs by Abprallen, a London-based company that designs and sells occult- and satanic-themed LGBTQ clothing and accessories, have also created backlash.
Levin talked about this on Twitter:
Target has informed my publisher, Simon & Schuster, that it will not carry my new book when it is released on September 19. It claims that certain customers might be offended by the title. Imagine that! So, the corporatist leftwing censorship begins. I will discuss this in…

Target deserves to be boycotted by conservative Americans.
Make them afraid of offending people on the right.
UPDATE: Target reversed course and will sell Levin’s book now. Good move.
