Anheuser-Busch, the largest brewery in the world has just announced it may pull out of Boston's St. Patrick's Day parade after finding out a gay veterans group had been excluded.
According to reports, South Boston Allied War Veterans Council, an agency involved in organizing the parade has banned OUTVETS, a group of U.S. veterans which honors the LGBTQ community:
A spokesperson for the company said in a statement:
"We value equality and believe diversity enriches our workforce and our world. [...] We are disappointed to learn that the OUTVETS, who have proudly served this country, have been denied entry to the South Boston St. Patrick’s Day Parade.”

Equating your product with males having anal sex is not a winner.
I quit drinking Sam Adams when they caved on the whole gays -vs- sanity thing regarding the St. Patrick’s parade a few years ago.
But now I’m older and wiser. And now I realize there is a valid place for these people in the parade...
...somebody has to play the part of the snakes!
Yeah, AB, keep flipping the bird at your biggest market share (straight, white males) and see what it’ll do for your bottom line. Look what it did for JCPenney and Target!

St. Patricks went to the top of a mountain in Ireland and told God that if God did not promise to bring salvation to every person in Ireland, then he, St. Patrick, would not leave the mountain top and would not walk down to the base. After bargaining, St. Patrick walked down to the base of the mountain.
Budweiser should know better and should not promote sin to young people.
Coors light tastes better.
I never pictured toe-dancers and interior decorators as the type to make up much of the beer market...but I guess these clowns must think they are.
It’s horse piss. I’ll take a Red Stripe or Harp any time over Bud.
One suspects many posers and other-than-honorable dischargees in the ranks, here.
No proof, just a hunch.
Bud Lite in the loafers.
LMAO you posted a reply so you do care. Heh
LOL Half Irish half Italian, but American. Do you wear green one day and the red white blue on the 4th? I mka guessing you think you are other nations too. Why not just say you are the UN?
Most of these liberal “vet” groups are made up of “associate members”. Snowflakes who have never worn a uniform but “support” the group’s “support” for the homosexual community.
most liberals state they are something, but are not.
Well you totally misinterpreted that so whatever you think sweetie is ok. I couldn’t roll my eyes anymore.
Um no. I gather the point was totally out of your realm of knowledge.
Now I know. Avoid posts by manc who is a moron. Good to know.
LOL
I love it when retail corporations when to engage in racism. It allows me to reflect on whether they deserve my future business. Is the an enemy of the conservative people website. First can list the press, then start with this brewery, Starbucks, Nike, etc.
Budweiser. King of Queers. Horse Piss Beer
I’ll take an Alaskan Amber.
