Did Burger King imagine this would all be win/win and that there'd be no backlash from those opposed to that lifestyle being shoved in their faces 24/7? Are they truly that stupid? I actually like Burger King in many ways versus McDonald's, Wendy's and Subway, especially at that price point, but no more.

I used to eat lots of Burger King when I was in my early 20s, partially explaining why I was fat back then.

Now those fat burgers are $4-5 a piece here.(Whoppers, etc)

Only welfare recipients can afford that,

The pro-gay stuff isnt making them look any better

If they were smart over at McDonalds, they’d introduce the Straight Mac and let regular Americans decide which one is better.

I assume that serial killers are “the same inside”. That doesn’t justify their actions or excuse them from the consequences of those actions. Just because a killer has a spleen and I have a spleen it doesn’t mean I should have sympathy for his depravity. Furthermore, it makes killers happy to kill-just like it makes homosexual males happy to have sex with men.

When BK makes an ad that says they support straight marriage I might buy a burger from them. Doubtful, but still.

No matter how they wrap it, the BK Lounge still processes their third world “meat” with ammonia and makes me sick.

BKs commercials started making me feel grimy inside years ago. Decided to never buy from them again. They seemed to tone it down for a little while and now this - probably doing a K-Mart/Penney’s thing and trying to find a way to go full-blown homosexual (you can decide it it’s a pun) and still keep a viable customer base.

That’s great, right? Well it’s great if you’re Burger King. Now 4.3 million people (and counting) are going to have a positive image of your brand. Burger King isn’t only a fast food chain—they’re an ally They care.


Amazing and actual number versus a ‘percentage’.

Now as for me I’m looking forward to seeing what the ‘fruits’ of this advertising campaign really are for Burger King. My own personal guess is that it will be a disaster in the making if they make this a nationwide ad campaign.

How many ‘straights’ are just going to shrug their shoulders once again and say ‘see! look at me! I’m tolerant.’ As far as I can see there aren’t too many more Americans lining up anymore to buy into that.

On an anecdotal note, I was visiting a nearby city last week, the Burger King drive-through had only a couple of cars in it. The Wendy’s had a double drive-through operating at maximum capacity. My personal guess is that Wendy’s is benefiting more from Burger King’s Gay Whopper than Burger King is.

If Burger King wrapped their Whoppers in condoms, it would be just about as disturbing.

I no longer eat at the Burger Queen.
This is how I chose to, “Be My Way”

Burglar King, and the person who wrote this article can both take a gigantic leap into the septic tank.

My wife and I have went to Burger King for years. We boycott any store that jumps on the sodomite bandwagon. Thanks for posting this. Burger King has gotten their last dollar from me.

I rather have a Subway than a burger king. I love Subway.
