Walgreen's and Home Depot added to the boycott list. Here's from Wikipedia on Home Depot.

"The Human Rights Campaign thanked "a group of dedicated HRC Partners", including Home Depot, for providing the resources necessary to help pass the New York State gay marriage bill. The Home Depot says on its web site that they are "honored to say we support" HRC and other LGBT advocacy groups."

Considering that Walgreens profits from the diseases caused by this kind of behavior, why shouldn’t they support it? It’s just good business.

Good business call.

Gays die 7 to 11 years earlier and are far more unhealthy. So they buy a lot of prescription drugs.

I’d prefer we skip links from that Mr. Conservative site. They are often completely wrong and almost always overblowing things. The site is totally unreliable.

That's a shame. Always liked Walgreens. Guess I'll be shopping at Rite Aid instead...unless Rite Aid is also an LGBT supporter.

I tend to admire the Russian approach

50 to 100 year from now I hate to think which society is likely to be in tact .

Is there a comprehensive list of gay proud companies somewhere , so that supporters can make informed choices about what to buy and where to shop? (wink, wink)

How do they prove that they’re gay?

CVS discontinued tobacco sales—a $2 billion item—to curry favor (IMHO) with the government, their biggest customer on the pharmacy benefits side of the business.

Now Walgreens is going them one better in the PC department—at least with this administration in charge. Maybe a little homo friendliness will grease the skids of approval for the temporarily stalled inversion they had contemplated with Alliance Boots.

Well, I guess I’ll keep my rx refills with CVS after all.

Tomorrow I plan to meet with my local Walgreen's pharmacy manager and setup a transfer of my prescriptions to a local pharmacy and let him know why I'm moving my 'scripts' from Walgreens after about 20 years of business.

It's going to be a little more expensive and inconvenient but there's no way I can support Walgreens if some of my money goes to supporting the HomoNation.

Damn...when is this political correct sh!t going to end?!?

Walgreen has gotten creepy with their ‘be well’ program. All the employees say “Be Well” very politely and very robotic like. Reminds me of Logan’s run or Dark City.

Had to look. What’s with the brightly colored mini faux war bonnets. Of course, they are wearing Mardi Gras beads.

The ice skaters wearing the unitards and nude stocks are hilarious, as one shaker holds the leg upward of his partner in a semi-crouch position. I don’t think this a regular move, but it sure doesn’t look lady like.

And here is an interesting comment”

“Look, religion is like a penis, if you have one, awesome for you. Be proud of it if you like, but don’t whip it out in public, don’t trying forcing it on anyone and keep it the hell outta politics. This is coming from a bi-sexual conservative male who is married to a wonderful bi-sexual conservative woman.

I have many friends in the LGBT community who want to vote conservatively but because it’s the dems who accept and back them, that’s how they vote. Maybe if you got to know the LGBT community around you and gave them the same basic rights as the hetro community you might just get a Republican controlled Washington in 2016... just saying... besides, if what goes on behind closed doors of private bedrooms doesn’t affect or involve you... leave it alone.”

I always assumed that FIGURE SKATING was a gay event, at least for men. This CONFIRMED it.
