“The Incredibles” had a similar sentiment. Both good movies.
Thank you so much for the update! I need to know where to spend my money, and where not to.
“The Incredibles” had a similar sentiment. Both good movies.
“The Incredibles” is for 12 year olds. I liked it.
“Watchmen” takes it to a whole other level.
Very hard core.
Add to that list the big defense contractors...
Add the big defense companies to that list; government contracts have strings attached..
I guess it makes sense that Hershey’s is on the list?
Yes, hard core....but from a basic standpoint Incredibles)....the character ‘Buddy’ was the quintessential liberal out to destroy the world and the traditional family because he was ‘dissed’. The ‘savers’ of the world went underground because of the slimey lawyers and media.
Which of these companies actively support the homosexuals vs those that are just trying to keep the government and gay lobby off their backs? I work for one on that list and best way to describe how the management looks at things is when the company is worth billions, people and the government sue you for millions. Our current government needs to be changed and most likely will not happen peaceably as happened at our founding. If you notice from that time, the first people to step up are remembered, but many died from the forces of the government, who wants to step up?
Ernst & Young, Intel, Merck,...

Hormel Foods. The owner is gay.
I have 8 named on my list and will try to eliminate all from our funds. We will also be looking for associated companies.
http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/hrl/ownership-summary
Wall Street investment funds own a ‘controlling’ share. They are the ones that installed the CEO.
Did you mean the CEO?
Jeffrey Ettinger, the CEO of Hormel, is married with four children.
My shares of Hormel have doubled in value in the past 3-1/2 years I’ve owned them.
I have no doubt the list is huge - trying to boycott all of them would basically mean to stop eating, sleeping, using a computer, a phone, driving, etc, etc - i.e. committing suicide. That’ll never work.
The effective way to do this is to do it the way the left does it - use Alinsky’s rules for radicals on them.
We have to pick one or two high profile companies, maybe Apple, Home Depot, NBC, Starbucks... isolate them and have a coordinated, sustained boycott, including protests in front of their headquarters and inside their stores. Once that one cries uncle we move to the next one, until a sufficient number of example have been set that the remaining businesses will know what to do.
The reason businesses are pro gay-issues is not because they love gays, it’s because they want to avoid at all costs gays (or blacks, or us) getting in their faces and causing vandalism, pandemonium, and negative publicity.
Our side has to do the same and more, to let businesses know that picking sides is not to their benefit and that they should remain completely neutral.
To pull this off requires leadership - leadership to choose the target, rally the supporters and coordinate the attack. Most of all it requires that we the vast majority that way outnumbers the 2% that are gay get off our asses and actually do something - become activists.
We have done this in the past - remember all the tea party protests of just a few years ago that put the fear of god into a lot of politicians and media types? That’s what we have to do again.
I’ve heard many people wonder in disbelief how gays who only represent 2% of the people, could be so successful at establishing their agenda.
The answer is easy - they have 2% more people willing to actively fight for their beliefs, agenda, values than we do.
Who will lead us? I think having a single leader is not good - it would be too easy for the opposition to pick him off. I think the tea party model works best, where the leadership is diffuse. Perhaps the leaders of the various tea party organizations still existing can get together and selects a couple of targets and coordinate the attack.
Any one has any other suggestion?
Picking one is the way to go. Target them for doing business in countries that persecute gays and women and religious minorities. It doesn’t matter if they all do it. Cause some economic damage to one of them, and they all learn.
We just need a worthy company to target first. We can do the rest with social media and snapping our pocketbooks shut. I’m disgusted that most of these companies do business in countries that torture their own people. The hippocracy is stunning.
The hardest part is picking the worst offender. Someone will always be unhappy about the target. But we have to make an example of one these companies. Then we start telling the world about how much money Company X makes in countries that stone women and hang homosexuals.
The nerve of these companies to tell us we can’t practice our faith in America.
It’s time to do something.
“Target them for doing business in countries that persecute gays and women and religious minorities”
This ^^
Political Jujitsu. They’re brave enough to pick on Christians lets see what type of stomach they have for Muslims.
“Hormel Foods. The owner is gay.”
Yea, but is he a gay Nazi. Those are the ones I hate.
BTW: Hormel is large employer of Muslims. I wonder how they deal with the pork.
