Fred Meyer One-Stop Shopping
325 5th St
Brookings, OR 97415
To Whom It May Concern:
There are several products that you carry that are of questionable taste. And, I'm sure if the gender's were reversed, you wouldn't have carried them in the first place. However, because of the cultural atmosphere that wants to degrade young men, they often slip by a buyer's radar.
The products are produced by David & Goliath and I'm sure, if you simply went to their web site, (www.davidandgoliathtees.com) you would see what their attitude is towards boys and men.
The products Fred Meyer carries are as follows:
Other retailers who carried similar products from David & Goliath (400 Border's outlets, 3,000 Claires Stores, Inc.) have recently removed them from their shelves and have directed their buyers not to order similar products. We would like to see Fred Meyer follow suit and be able to tell those who visit our web site of your positive response. (We get over 60,000 hits a day). Please let us know of your decision.
Yours in continued growth,
Gordon Clay, Executive Director
