Gays challenge traditional marriage supporters: put up or shut up
Homosexual group calls for boycott of Wal-Mart, shopping at Target instead
If Wal-Mart sales go down, gays will claim victory in support of same-sex "marriage" benefits
The Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the nation's largest homosexual organization, has issued a challenge to pro-traditional marriage supporters saying in essence: "Put up or shut up." They have called for a boycott of Wal-Mart while urging their supporters to buy from Target.
The reason? Wal-Mart refuses to offer "domestic benefits" (benefits given to married couples) to homosexual partners.
The homosexual organization also urged individuals to buy from Target, saying "consumers should make every effort to support" Target because Target offers "marriage" benefits to homosexual partners. (Target is the company which no longer allows the Salvation Army to solicit Christmas donations in front of their stores.)
USA Today interviewed me November 20 concerning the Wal-Mart boycott, citing--among other things--the number of HRC's "buy and don't buy guide" downloaded from the Internet and the billions of dollars the gays claim in buying power. I told Andrea Stone, the reporter who called, that AFA would promote a "buycott" of Wal-Mart and suggested that she look at Wal-Mart's sales at the end of December to see who won.
However, in her article the next day there was not a single word from her interview with me. Instead, the article was basically a "puff piece" about the homosexual boycott. Homosexuals have challenged traditional marriage supporters to do battle. We will now see if traditional marriage supporters accept the challenge.
Make every effort to shop at Wal-Mart this Christmas season. The gays want Wal-Mart sales to go down so they can claim victory.
Forward this to your friends and family and urge them to buy at Wal-Mart. Announce this in your Sunday School class, at church, etc. Ask your pastor to announce in church newsletters and bulletins that the homosexuals are challenging those who support traditional marriage. Tell them about the homosexual's efforts to force Wal-Mart to offer "marriage" benefits and Target's support for "marriage" benefits.
Could you add the link for THIS article?
TIA!
Damn, talk about a rock and a hard spot. Surely there is a way to make a point against the homosexual agenda without having to shop at Wal-Mart. Which brings me to a question, being style conscious, how many gays would shop at Wal-Mart anyway? I’m straight, married, and can’t color coordinate, and I still can’t bring myself to shop there.
Yah, gay activists are not your typical Wal-mart shopper . . .
Yes, this could actually drive me to making a shopping trip to Walmart. Haven’t been there for several years.
I support Walmart.
LIBERALS ALWAYS HATE a successful CAPITALISM - and WALMART is the quintessential capitalistic story.
Good for Walmart. Sort of makes me want to shop there...hey, wait a minute, I already do. So, shop Walmart, help boycott homosexual sodomists.
Retail giant Wal-Mart has made a substantial donation to “Fisher Houses” on 36 U.S. military installations and VA medical centers in order to help provide a brighter Christmas for military families.
Can’t help but support TRUE, patriotic stores like WalMart!
Sometimes, even I can’t believe some of the ignorant stuff people post about Walmart on FR ... trolls?
If Wal Mart puts up signs in all their stores banning queers I may just ok the Mrs to shop in there. Been a long time since either of us have been on their parking lot, let alone in the store. 2001, I think.
Shopping at Target on only mildly unpleasant while shopping at Wal-Mart is a horrific nightmare.
My local Wal-Mart is a convenient place to grab shotgun ammo on the way to the range
As long as you don't buy the "Made in China" children's toys.
I find NO link on this at AFA?
Is this really TRUE?
If it is, what is the link?
The benefits at Wal-Mart are actually very good and very reasonable, but they make you wait for good reason, it affords Wal-Mart the ability to pass the saving of not having to process 100's of thousands of medical benefit applications for people who only stick around for under six months. Turnover for people under six months is very high due to the nature of the business, so processing paperwork is a hugh expense
Beside what homo's shop at Wal-Mart?
Just came back from Walmart. Bought four 5-gallon containers of oil. They sure have gone up in price. Over $9 now.
so they’re not going to buy vaseline and saran wrap from wal-mart anymore?
I stopped buying at Target just for that reason alone. If I can shop at Walmart & not have to see gays I will shop there more often. My Walmart give the Salvation Army a little shelter to keep them out of the wind & rain, I think thats very nice of them.
Come to think of it, Target does seem gayer than Walmart. Target has better clothes... Thanks Isaac Mizrachi. I try to boycott Target because of that whole Salvation Army thing, though.
Thank you for telling me that they are pro American and not pro terrorist.
