McDonald's, home of kids' Happy Meals and the Big Mac, has been cited by a boycott campaign for sponsoring conferences at which homosexuals are trained to be activists in advancing their own sexual preferences, according to the American Family Association.
The AFA has launched a boycott campaign of the company for an anti-family agenda and public condemnation of traditional family supporters as being motivated by "hate."
The AFA's petition and other outreaches have been assembled at the website BoycottMcDonalds.com.
Now there's more reason for members and supporters of traditional families to be upset with the fast-food chain.
"McDonald's does it again," said the AFA in an alert to constituents yesterday.

I don’t think anyone’s actually “eaten” at a McDonalds in decades.
McDonald’s premium iced coffee is better than Starbuck’s and 1/2 the price.

I’m not lovin’ it...
Their food is not good for you, doesn’t taste good, and the profits are used to push political agendas. I don’t agree with their political agendas so I won’t be buying their product.
My heart thanks me.
We go to Wendy’s instead. Their $1.00 chicken sandwiches are a lot better than McDonalds and Wendy’s founder was a big supporter of adoption. I don’t know if Wendy’s/Tim Horton’s still holds true to that idea.
Gays are always disappointed when they go to McDonalds when they find out that “Big Mac” is just a hamburger.
You really think that's meat?
Well - if “premium iced coffee” is important enough to you that you are willing to support MacDonald’s “Queer Cause”... then go right again.
I stop at McD’s when all I require is caloric input, but there are plenty of other choices out there; I can easily join this boycott.
I’ll put them on the family boycott list along with Miller beer and Levi Strauss.
If McDonald’s depended on my business, they’d have gone broke years ago. Add a little more money to what you pay for a combo meal and go to a steak house buffet.
Same reason Miller Brewing (Molson's) does:
they put money ahead of any principles they might still have.
The buffets here cost about double compared to a combo meal at McDonalds but yes, still a better value. A rare luxury for me, though.
