A Christo-Fascist Thanksgiving

Our friends at the anti-gay American Family Association demonstrated once again that they are NOT a "Christian" organization at all, and they do not understand "Thanksgiving." The AFA once again threatened to boycott a major corporation (Wal-Mart) for the "sin" of supporting their gay and lesbian employees and treating gay people as human beings. The AFA threatened a boycott on Friday, the big shopping day after thanksgiving, complaining that Wal-Mart had donated money to gay organizations (inlcuding the Northwest Arkansas LGBT Community Center), had joined the Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, and had promoted a gay movie (Brokeback Mountain). They have called off their "boycott" after Wal-Mart issued a statement saying that the company would not take any positions on "controversial issues." Although the AFA called off their boycott, Wal-Mart continues to support the gay and lesbian chamber of commerce and the Northwest Arkansas LGBT Community Center, and they still carry Brokeback Mountain and other movies that portray gays as human beings. So Thanks AFA for nothing..

What Did the American Family Association Get from Wal-Mart?
