McDonald's boycott blows into Chicago
Charlie Butts and Ed Thomas - OneNewsNow - 7/16/2008 8:00:00 AM

UPDATED: A demonstration was held near McDonald's national headquarters in Chicago to draw attention to their pro-homosexual stance.

The protest was in response to the corporations $20,000 donation to the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, and a McDonald's executive who was seated on their board.

American Family Association's Buddy Smith was on hand for the event, which included a press conference. Smith said that McDonald's needs to project a pro-family philosophy. "They need to line up their associations with that message and drop their membership in the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber," he stated.

He adds that the chamber is a political machine that is out to radically redefine marriage and family in America.

Peter LaBarbera, of Americans for Truth, supports the boycott, and says their message is that "when you take sides in the culture war, at some point there's gotta be a price to pay. And we're hoping that millions of people join this boycott and it becomes really something the entire pro-family movement gets behind." He stresses that unity is the key to success. .....(more)

1. I doubt that a fundy boycott of Mickey Ds is going to be successful.

Lot of fundies probably consider it a fine dining experience.

12. they do!

I've been trolling on the right wing sites and after reading some of the comments from people boycotting McDonald's now, I don't think they've ever stepped into a real sit-down restaurant

People said that they eat there like 5 times a week

I have trouble eating there once a week!

2. "Unity is the key to success??"

Getting a bunch of yahoos who hate a group of their fellow American citizens who happen to be law abiding, tax paying productive citizens. There must be some sort of vitamins in hate cause these pukes who hate in the name of Jesus Christ seem to thrive on their efforts to destroy some of our fellow citizens.

3. do they want fries with that?

[sharp_stick]

4. I hate McDonalds

There is nothing on their menu that even remotely interests me but damnit, if the putzes that form the American Family Association are pissed at them I'm about to go eat a Big Mac. I try to make it a habit to support organizations that the American Family Association boycotts. It was nice going to Disney when the fundies were avoiding the place and I now love vacationing in Aruba because there is a distinct lack of rednecks.

Jim Dobson needs to be kicked in the crotch repeatedly.

5. Let 'em eat McShit.

:evilgrin:

6. This is awful news!

If fundies start boycotting McDonalds, they'll probably live longer.

That's something we really don't need.

7. ......

16. Oh, that's too funny.

I still like their Big Macs and fries. I hardly eat there but I like it better than Burger King most times. Their fries are awful, but Jack-in-the-Box has milkshakes made with real ice cream.

8. What a bunch of Morons

It was only a $20,000 donation. Falwell, Dobson et al get billions from these idiots for for being hateful bastards...

I guess we should just start calling it- Fundies, the worshipers of Hate(Which, coincidentally, is the sin Satan represents).

[Gidney N Cloyd]

9. I sense a conspiracy afoot.

[marmar]

11. That Burger King character completely creeps me out....

:scared:

[davidinalameda]

13. me too

I would totally freak if I saw that at my window

[Kittycat]

10. Just what that cooridoor needs - a bottleneck of assholes clogging the highway.

That's already a bottle neck area. I'm sure they did nothing more than piss off the regular commuters as they drove in to that area (88/355/290/294 all come to a peak in that area).

Morons.

[guitar man]

14. they might fuck with Ronald

but they don't dare fuck with The King! :D

[AndyA]

15. Because war, death, destruction, hypocrisy, lying, and criminal

activities are so pro-family... :eyes:

They can all just go f*ck themselves.

18. Yeah, the AFA seems to have some kind of defense shield....

19. I wrote and thanked them

Since I don't eat their food I thought thanking them via snail-mail was in order. I'm guessing they're getting hammered with negative comments so I hope my praise of their support for the NGLCC won't be lost in the shuffle.
