BUSINESS: Target Fails to Boot Gay Group!

A San Diego superior court judge Tuesday denied a Target Corp. motion to keep a grassroots group campaigning for marriage equality from gathering petition signatures outside its stores throughout California.

Judge Jeffrey Barton ruled that the right of free speech takes priority over Target’s interests, refusing to temporarily remove the group Canvass for a Cause pending trial, according to San Diego Gay & Lesbian News.

He set a trial date for March 25.
