Homosexual group calls for boycott of Wal-Mart

Gays challenge traditional marriage supporters: put up or shut up

Homosexual group calls for boycott of Wal-Mart, shopping at Target instead

If Wal-Mart sales go down, gays will claim victory in support of same-sex "marriage" benefits

The Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the nation's largest homosexual organization, has issued a challenge to pro-traditional marriage supporters saying in essence: "Put up or shut up." They have called for a boycott of Wal-Mart while urging their supporters to buy from Target.

The reason? Wal-Mart refuses to offer "domestic benefits" (benefits given to married couples) to homosexual partners.

The homosexual organization also urged individuals to buy from Target, saying "consumers should make every effort to support" Target because Target offers "marriage" benefits to homosexual partners. (Target is the company which no longer allows the Salvation Army to solicit Christmas donations in front of their stores.)

USA Today interviewed me November 20 concerning the Wal-Mart boycott, citing--among other things--the number of HRC's "buy and don't buy guide" downloaded from the Internet and the billions of dollars the gays claim in buying power. I told Andrea Stone, the reporter who called, that AFA would promote a "buycott" of Wal-Mart and suggested that she look at Wal-Mart's sales at the end of December to see who won.

However, in her article the next day there was not a single word from her interview with me. Instead, the article was basically a "puff piece" about the homosexual boycott. Homosexuals have challenged traditional marriage supporters to do battle. We will now see if traditional marriage supporters accept the challenge.

Make every effort to shop at Wal-Mart this Christmas season. The gays want Wal-Mart sales to go down so they can claim victory.

Forward this to your friends and family and urge them to buy at Wal-Mart. Announce this in your Sunday School class, at church, etc. Ask your pastor to announce in church newsletters and bulletins that the homosexuals are challenging those who support traditional marriage. Tell them about the homosexual's efforts to force Wal-Mart to offer "marriage" benefits and Target's support for "marriage" benefits.

I know & fight with my school all the time. What people do behind their closed doors is their business. Why they have to push their gay agenda on the rest of us is disturbing to me. However I am not going to be able to stop it. But I can teach my child that it is wrong & against our religion. It seems to me that they push their gay agenda on children to get them used to the idea that its ok to be gay & that is just wrong. You are so correct in saying they are indoctrinating our children! I think more parents need to step up & say enough,leave our children alone! However I found at PTO meetings parents really don’t see this as a problem. I don’t understand why they are so stupid but they seem to just go along with whatever the school says. Shaking my head again.

When I ask her to stay out of a store I give her my reasoning why. So far, 30 years, she hasn’t said I am wrong or that my belief isn’t on a solid footing. I haven’t changed my opinion about queers since I was a teenager and caught a couple of them cornholing each other in a public restroom. They are a sick bunch.

This will be a real dilema for the local cross dressing male....I do so enjoy his “costumes” during his frequent visits to Wallyworld.....it’a all I can do NOT to laugh at his “get-ups”.......I shudder when I see children staring at him though.

If my husband tells me not to go to a store I don’t go either. He usually has a reason & when I ask him not to support Muslim owned gas stations & stores he doesn’t. Works well for us.

I didn’t mean to display your support of crime. Sorry for that.

I quit shopping at Target for the same reason.

It’s funny, they talk about Walmart employees being miserable, the Walmart I shop at, I know most of them on a first name basis, they’ve been there for the 14 years I’ve been shopping there.

Why would any rational person want to RISK their kids being MOLESTED by these perverts or look up to them as a “normal” example of a human being?

Gabz:
I guess I’m not “rational” in your mind. My gay friends asre neither molestrs of children or perverted, they are just different.

Then by all means support the perverted and risk your kids being molested by them. Be blind. Ignore that a disproportionate number of child molestations as compared to heterosexual molestations are happily committed by “gay” people. Be an advocate for the ungodly “different” people that are emotionally all screwed up - lovely example for the kiddies ... .

so they’re not going to buy vaseline and saran wrap from wal-mart anymore?

I'm pleased to say I only understand the 1st half of that equation. I request you refrain from explaining the saran wrap part.

So I guess you don't think homosexuality is a perversion, just "different," eh?

So in re-reading your post, I guess my question in #72 should have been addressed to Gabz.

“The gays want Wal-Mart sales to go down so they can claim victory”
You don’t have to search very hard to find humor in this article!
I think this puts target on the “avoid” list.

I know many of the Walmart workers too & the checkers have never even looked in my bag & the alarm has gone off. I have no problem there. Once I did when I wanted Sassy’s ears pierced. The woman didn’t like my husband & was quite rude to him & refused to do her ears. We know the manager & she did Sassy's ears herself & gave us a Walmart $20 giftcard too just for her being so rude.
