Wal-Mart Contributes 5% Of Online Sales To Homosexual Group
Sign the pledge not to shop at Wal-Mart or Sam's Club on the Friday and Saturday following Thankgiving
Help recruit 1,000,000 to agree to not shop at Wal-Mart or Sam's Club (owned by Wal-Mart) on the Friday and Saturday following Thanksgiving. Here's why:
In a show of support to help homosexuals legalize same-sex marriage, Wal-Mart has agreed to automatically donate 5% of online sales directly to the Washington DC Community Center for Gay, Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender People. The cash donation will come from ALL online purchases made at Wal-Mart through the homosexual group's Web site. This move follows Wal-Mart's joining the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce and agreeing to give generous financial help to that group.
Every purchase made online for books, music, videos, clothing and accessories, children's clothing and toys, and electronics at the site will automatically send 5% of the sales to the homosexual group.
With this agreement, Wal-Mart made clear their support for the homosexual movement was a total commitment to the cause.
Many observers feel it would have been a wise business decision for Wal-Mart to remain neutral in the cultural battle over homosexual marriage. But this was an ideological decision by Wal-Mart, not a business decision. Wal-Mart decided to give the promotion of homosexual marriage their full support.

Yo, Gabz. Have you read the statement from the founder? It says in part: We oppose all forms of ...homosexualism... etc. That's what this thread is about and it's one of the reasons why we gather at FR.
I thought we were actually having a good conversation even though we basically disagree about the deception used by AFA, but after this particular post of yours, I'm done with you.
Wow. There wasn't much in that post to get so excited about, especially considering the statement from the founder. BTW, you already said you were done with me once so I was a little surprised to see you continue.
Maybe we can start over sometime in the future, as you can start over with me anytime.
Wasn't that a song by the Byrds? I didn't know they wrote part of the Bible. Those guys must be really old.
"All I'm seeing are people being legalistic and nitpicky."
I believe you saw the point all along, it is you that have wasted my time with feigned ignorance and legalisms.
I believe somebody in the band had a father named David...
Wasn't he the lead guitar player?
See what you like and support what you like.
I thought he was the song writer but I don't see why he couldn't be the lead guitar player as well.
You might not have noticed that scripter did not ping you. There was only one person he pinged to that post and that was P-Marlowe. It might also interest you to know that scripter and P-Marlowe are old acquaintances, and that when scripter said, "why we gather at FR" that he was specifically speaking of why he and P-M gather at FR.
Also with me....we've all been friends here for a very long time.
I will disagree with p-marlowe on this one, because I'm part of an organization that has had a serious fight against takeover by a gay caucus. I know how they come in, and I know the little inroads that were gradually made.
I don't think it accidental that Wal-Mart published their gay ties, and I don't think it accidental that information about their 5% web link to homo-advocacy is public.
the headline gives it all away:
Wal-Mart Contributes 5% Of Online Sales To Homosexual Group
That headline would give the average reader/consumer the idea that anything purchased online from WalMart gave a kickback to this particular organization. Of course people that read beyond the headline know the headline is an outright fabrication, but the average person just reads te headline and AFA kows this and thus their misleading and deceptive PR campaing against WalMart.
Finally getting to read the thread. I hope you're saving your comments. Excellent and promoting deeper thought.
Regarding the AFA/Walmart debate, I think some people just hate the AFA and Dobson and that's the beginning and end of it.
This bigot here is glad that there are some people still fighting the homosexual agenda. Maybe these people aren't all perfect. But rather than criticize the AFA, I think the "gay" agenda promoters should be criticized.
Indeed. Neeners to the end.

I think that's a great way of looking at it. The AFA isn't perfect. I'm far from perfect. Nobody is perfect. It's as you said, the gay agenda promoters and the radical homosexual activists should be criticized for what they're doing to our culture.
And if someone doesn't like how the AFA is trying to promote traditional (aka as "real") values, then find another way to promote them.
One way or another, there's as many ways as there are people!
So, the AFA is expected to write misleading headlines to sell newspapers and/or advertising space now?
AFA is all about morals, right? Get a clue.
No, it's not. Again, my point here is about this article and the AFA's making a mountain out of this mole hill.
Forget it.
What are we going to do when the Chocolate market is cornered by gay activists? Are we going to simply boycott? Or take up arms?
