While I agree with your sentiment, it's not that easy in practice. Every group in the area uses the Six Flags name in their advertisements. If Six Flags lets other groups use their name, then the courts would toss out any attempt to prevent gays from using their name. The result would be lots of pro-gay advertisement and a wonderful opportunity for the media to portray conservative Christians as haters.I wish that I didn't disagree with you, but Donald Widemon would do better to focus his efforts elsewhere. This one is a lose-lose situation.
Yep. Remember when the Rangers sold a block of tickets to some gay group last summer, and the gay group began to advertise that they were going to the game as a group?
Well, an evangelical pastor decided he was going to protest the Rangers and blame the Rangers for sponsoring a "gay day."
The Rangers were sponsoring nothing; they just sold 50 tickets to somebody.
The pastor ranted and raved on Mark Davis' show on 820 and begged and pleaded for people to come out and protest the presence of gay people sitting together at a baseball game.
Well, when the day came, the gays went to the ballgame and six protesters showed up.
The real issue is the conduct of the "Gay Days" participants at Six Flags. IMO, if there's no inappropriate public behavior in front of the kids, there's no problem. I don't have any knowledge of "Gay Days" at Six Flags these past eight years, but if it's anything like the pictures from "Gay Days" at DisneyWorld that others on this forum have directed me to, I'd be thankful for the warning if I were planning on bringing the kids.
If Six F.ags stockholders really wanted to stop this they'd let the courts prove there wasn't an intentional full park electrical blackout which shut down the entire park on 9/18.
