According to the Nashville Gay Pride website, Home Depot gave over $5,000 to be a major sponsor of its 2009 Gay Pride Festival in June. But simply financing the event wasn't enough for the big box chain.
Home Depot also signed on as a vendor, conducting kid's craft workshops for children via a special booth set up just for them.
To this end, Home Depot is basically encouraging the attendance of children at events which openly expose them to transvestites, cross-dressers, and homosexual activities.
Unfortunately, Home Depot's participation in the Nashville Pride Festival doesn't stand alone. It has also sponsored kid's booths at other gay events in Atlanta, Kansas City, Durham, Portland, and San Diego.
Gay pride events have a long track record for offensive public displays of homosexual conduct. Obviously, Home Depot is OK with the idea of exposing children to an unhealthy and risky environment. So much so, it is willing to participate in it.
TAKE ACTION
Let Home Depot know you are sickened by their support and approval of children at homosexual events. If you are a customer, please add an additional personal line to our prepared letter to Home Depot.
After sending your email, make an extra effort to protect children by calling Home Depot personally. Paula Drake is the Senior Manager for Corporate Communications. Her number is 770-384-3439.

Thanks for this post. I won’t be shopping Home Depot anymore. I hope other FReepers will do likewise.
Looks like Lowes for me from now on!
Lowes it is from now on.
I’m done with Home Depot too. Setting up booths for kids to be exposed to pedophiles which all sodomites really are.
Home Depot; just another “cave-in” along with: AARP, GM, Levi, Hallmark, Allstate, etc.
May we keep them all on our lists,our God is shuting them down.
So called “Gay-Pride” seems to be in harmony with the casting down of Satan.
The first listing of what sin is, according to the Bible is found in Proverbs 21:4, “A high look, and a proud heart and the plowing of the wicked is sin.”
May we recall: “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the Word of the LORD, He also hast rejected thee.....” (1 Samuel 15:23).
Please read: Proverbs 24:9, Romans 14:3, James 4:17, 1 John 3:4, 1 John 5:17, Romans 6:23.
And may we not forget: “But God commended His love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
My problem with these gay parades goes beyond the weird constumes and nudity — you can see that in New Orleans during Mardi Gras. My problem is that children are naturally curious and that they are going to be taking in all the concepts of sexuality at ages they are not thinking abstractly or can critically analyze and make choices.
These kids, are they going to be children of homosexuals or are they being recruited by Home Depot for participation?
Gay Pride Festival LOL they are clueless about pride.
I can’t stand Lowe’s, but what else is there? Has anyone checked out Lowe’s stand on sponsoring perversion?
I now call them “gay haughtiness festivals.” This is much more appropriate.
Not to sound like DU spew, but are there any Fortune 1000 company that don't suck the tit of PC oppressiveness?
No more home depot for me.
What's new. The GD company has been an illegal alien sanctuary for years.
Why wouldn't they pander to homosexuals?
After spending thousands of dollars at Home Depot the past couple of years to build a deck, put in hardwood and tile floors and other remodeling stuff they won’t see another dime from me. I have always liked them better because their items always cost less... I’ll spend a few bucks more and shop and Lowe’s from now on though. Just wish I had known about this sooner.
