Oh noes, it’s “Homo Depot”!
Over 250K sign pledge to boycott ‘Homo Depot’
Over 250,000 people have signed an online pledge to boycott The Home Depot for its “sponsorship and participation in homosexual events,” according to the American Family Association (AFA).
“The Home Depot, through any number of its affiliates, has given its money and its name to gay pride parades and festivals,” said AFA president Tim Wildmon. “We’ve appealed to them to stay neutral in the culture wars, but they are determined to keep using their influence to push the normalization of homosexual behavior. Everyone of these pride events pushes the recognition of homosexual marriage, so The Home Depot has clearly chosen sides on that issue.”</em>
Wow. 250,000 people pledge to boycott a private business for treating gays as human beings. That’s what, .000001% of our population? Really? Is the total amount of theocratic cretins among us that few? And going up against what, exactly?
Along with Home Depot and Sears, the AFA has also boycotted 7-Eleven, Abercrombie & Fitch, American Airlines, American Girl, Blockbuster Video, Burger King, Calvin Klein, Carl’s Jr., Clorox, Comcast, Crest, Ford, Hallmark Cards, Kmart, Kraft Foods, S. C. Johnson & Son, Movie Gallery, Microsoft, MTV, Mary Kay, NutriSystem, Old Navy, IKEA, Pampers, Procter & Gamble, Target, Tide, Walt Disney Company, and PepsiCo.</em>
Well, lets see. That’s about as mainstream as you can get. Methinks the AFA represents…nobody. So, lets all chip in and get plane tickets for these 250,000 poor souls who are so scared of the “gay agenda” and relocate them to somewhere that is more accepting of intolerance toward their fellow man.
Like with the Taliban in Afghanistan.
