Last March I was tickled pink (of course) over McDonalds decision to make a donation to the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC. I ended an eight year hiatus of eating their junk food in order to be supportive of the company’s outreach to the LGBT community.
Today I must swear off spending money at McDonalds- They caved to the American Family Association’s (AFA) boycott concerning the “The Big Mac attack on family values.” The Church of Our Lady of Gentilly has now black-listed McDonalds.
I guess that the rabid cross-bearing fanatics eat mainly fast food, because that boycott would not have worked if they frequented these kinds of eateries in a manner which intelligent people do- which is rarely. These people must be so short on time to home-cook meals due to their rabid attracts on anything/one that does not swallow their Cultural donkey poop.
I guess I’ll just have to wait until clogged arteries and obesity claim the fools at the AFA. (Maybe this is McDonalds secret and cunning plan- kill the Religious Reich by poisoning them. One can only hope…)
Ugh! Guess it’s bad (that my already not eating there won’t make a mark) and yet good that I don’t care for McDonald’s foodstuffs (?) anyway.
I would have let the stupid AFA boycott – their kids would have them back to the drive-thrus in a trice once they went a day w/o a “Marginally Happy Meal”. They would be tormented by the ads all over tele – there’s NO way a boycott would have worked and I am ashamed for McDonalds. I hope it totally backfires on them.
So, any word on Popeyes, Burger King or the Boston Market type places (yeah, I sometimes HAVE to have a whopper, but it’s rare – would rather wait until NOLA to get a Port of Call!) regarding LGBT relations? I may be a boring ol’ straight gal of the Witch stripe, but w/you and other friends I have to help out whenever I can!
Blessings,
Elspeth
