Wingnuts Launch McDonald’s Boycott

The American Family Association has launched a boycott against McDonald’s (with its own website, no less) in protest that an openly gay McDonald’s executive has joined the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. From the site:

What the boycott of McDonald’s IS NOT about

  • This boycott is not about hiring homosexuals.
  • It is not about homosexuals eating at McDonald’s.
  • It is not about how homosexual employees are treated.

What the boycott of McDonald’s IS about

It is about McDonald’s, as a corporation, refusing to remain neutral in the culture wars. McDonald’s has chosen not to remain neutral but to give the full weight of their corporation to promoting the homosexual agenda, including homosexual marriage.

Here’s a commercial that McDonald’s ran last year in support of San Francisco Pride, which the AFA has posted on their boycott site.

The AFA’s site provides a petition for fellow wingnuts to sign and deliver to their local McDonald’s outlets. Me, I having a Big Mac for lunch.
