Maybe others should join in this boycott....

This is not just something for Catholics to boycott...

Maybe it should become a political football so that the Mayor of New Orleans and Governor of Louisiana put roadblocks in this effort...

It would not hurt their popularity.

However, the mayor of New Orleans is a Landrieu, and that family tends to be pro-abortion...

How about excommunicating high profile politicians that support abortion and homosexual “marriage”?

Sounds like all Democratic politicians in New York and Massachusetts (as well as some but not all Republicans) would be ex-communicated...

Yes, that would send a very much needed message.

Of course, the same housecleaning needs to be done in the “Evangelical” camp, but it’s such a mixed bag. Many of those denominations actually support prenatal infanticide and homosexual “marriage”.

Thank you Archbishop. No Archdiocesan $$$ for the collaborators of the death merchants, Planned Parenthood.
