Petition: Tell the Apple iTunes Store to remove anti-gay, anti-choice iPhone application
Et tu, Steve Jobs?

Last month, The Apple iTunes Store approved and made available an application for the iPhone that invites users to join anti-gay and anti-choice campaigns.

Let's send a strong message to Apple that supporting homophobia and efforts to restrict choice is bad business.

You can tell Apple that applications that support hate and division have no place in the iTunes Store here:

1. I'm a big Apple supporter (and often apologist), but this is sickens me.
I'll pass this along, too. Thanks for the headsup - I had no idea.

3. Oh, but they don't have porn.....
..or even anything remotely deemed "adult", including the latest issue of GQ.

But they'll have this crap.

I'm also an Apple devotee and apologist and this infuriates me.

4. Thank you for putting this up...already signed!
I would have recommended this if it wasn't for the 24 hour rule.
