They’ve had this for a long time. You just now noticed it?

why don’t you complain to them?

Bring up the fact that Homo Depot and other places have lost business for supporting such causes and to look at the sales of Chick-fil-a during the anti gay protest.

Their sales and stocks went into the tank after some idiot released a snooty letter giving a rate hike. They last thing this company needs is a boycott like that is killing Home depot. A boycott like that would put them under.

Just present the facts and send it.

For Pete’s sake that catagory has always been there. Always. Ignore it.

Netflix allowed me to provide family entertainment for my children on my terms and at a good price. No outside influences, nothing through broadcast or cable. For years we had the three cd package and the children enjoyed them and so did I,

You can make this work in a terrific way. or not.

If you will elect to support the makers of media you prefer by buying their DVDs instead of renting from a company that wants to get as much volume as possible from everyone, you will not contribute to something you oppose. Of course, in order to be true to your beliefs in this fashion, you will pay more, but isn’t that worth it?

For me, I buy the hunting and fishing videos and few movies I am fairly confident I will enjoy. My money goes to the specific producers. It’s like no longer contributing to the GOP when I can send my donations to the specific campaigns of candidates I want to see in office.

“Imagine if they had a ‘black’ section. There would be outrage.”

There certainly would not be outrage. They have BET,don’t they?

The outrage would be for a section for “white” films.

If you’re going to sit and stare at the idiot box, then Netflix (which is how the name is spelled!) most certainly beats broadcast TV, because it gives you choice what to watch and when, and as far as homosexuality, well, there is plenty of it in Hollywood, in advertising, fashion and interior decorating, so whatcha gonna do, walk around nekkid and live in an unfurnished house to protest the trends and the fall of Western Civilization?

Video rentals have had homosexuality as a category of their own for quite a while. Believe me, rental stores have had it, and Netflix, well, they’ve had it for some time. Frankly, right now, you have the choice to ignore such films. Netflix to me, anyways, allows me the option of choosing whether or not to watch such films, and allows streaming of content of my choice, I don’t have to see ads for such films, should I not wish to see them. And most of these films are pretty much obscure pornos anyhow. It’s not much of an issue to me, and frankly, the fact that Netflix makes such films totally optional to me is the good part about it.

Can I remove people who are homosexual from flaming their sexuality around? Can I close all the man-dancing clubs in Rehoboth, Delaware? Nope! However, whether or not I watch those porno films is another story, and it’s my own decision.

I’d rather do without
