The San Francisco Chronicle reported that after a spate of bad publicity, Target department stores pulled a Neo-Nazi sportswear line.
It seems that ignorant buyers for Target did not realize they were stocking the store’s shelves with “hatewear,” when they bought caps and clothes with the logo “88.” Amongst Neo-Nazis “88” is code for “HH” or “Heil Hitler.” Two eights, which represent the eighth letter of alphabet “H” repeated twice.
A spokesperson for Target now says, “We certainly apologize that this was out there.”
Forest Gump said, “Stupid is as stupid does.” Someone was certainly pretty stupid at Target.
no comment untill now
