Why does it seem that only companies supporting homosexual marriage ever make announcements like this? All the companies against it just seem to stay silent. Maybe I only notice it when the bad guys speak up because it get's me so mad, but it really only seems to come from one side when companies speak out. Can anyone point me to some companies that have spoken up specifically against gay marriage so I can support them?

I just put in my datebook for Feb 13 to 15th to buy something there and support Starbucks for their pro-gun stance.

Now this. Why can’t these companies be consistent.

Erase, erase, erase.

What Starbuck's wants to do with their own employees is their business;
but Big Coffee has no business foisting this on the general population.

Shut up & pour!

I wish companies would stay out of politics. I assume that they did some market research and realized that a large part of their customers are homosexuals. This is just about money for them, that’s all.
I don’t like Starbuck’s products, so I don’t buy them.

Another company I'll have to boycott now. I always thought their coffee was too bitter anyway.

Starbucks today joined a growing list of corporations, including Microsoft, that have endorsed gay marriage legislation in the state House and Senate.

Can a corporation really endorse something? Or is it the people running the corporation who do the endorsing?

We can officially call civil unions 'marriage' when every religion, every country and every other group that has, throughout history, defined marriage as a union between a man and a woman agrees to change their definition.

It's kinda like if someone wants to cut in line in front of me. If they can get my permission and the permission of everyone else in line that would end up behind them, it would be ok.

Otherwise, things stay as they are. No forcing change on those who have, for whatever reason, absolutely no interest in changing.

Most companies have headquarters or affiliates in cities and states controlled by anti-discrimination laws. They are either already subverted by the "diversity industry," or fear lawsuits and organized activism.

This is one reason why we should oppose corporate tax cuts and favor individual tax cuts on payroll and income taxes. Large businesses are left-wing, and we're better off making them economically inefficient compared to small, more independent-minded businesses.
