Oh, boo-hoo.
Our nation defends gay rights as well. Are you going to protest by moving to China?
Thanks.
Why does every business decision have to be politically calculated? How about not shopping there because their stuff is garbage, the employees are incompetent, and management is rude? That's been my Wal-Mart experience and my reasons for not shopping there.
Well, it seems the Left will have to go easy on Wal-Mart from now on;)
"**On Friday morning and afternoon following Thanksgiving day, November 24, 2006, we are calling upon Christians to allow their theology to become biography on the streets in front of local Wal-Mart stores.
We have dedicated a new website www.Savewalmart.com that will enable you to find out the latest news and register your local Wal-Mart where you will be taking your stand for Jesus.

Well, they feed excessive consumerism, which is a form of greed. Supporting other forms of sin would be no surprise, methinks. All part of the same package (see tagline).
I love Walmart.
It attracks many customers.
While all those customers are shopping in Walmart, I can go to Freds Discount, Family Dollar or Dollar General, and avoid the crowd.
I love Walmart.
We have stopped shopping at Wal-mart, mainly because of the Gay Chamber of Commerce issue.
We spen(t) alot of money there each week, not that I'm boycotting or anything...shopping there doesn't seem right anymore. I'll be cutting up and cancelling my Wal-mart credit card, also.
Our local Walmart stopped taking checks. They only do electronic withdrawals (echecks). I would not dream of trusting their employees with my banking information. I had a bad experience and just don't do e-checks.
Myself and my company simply quit going there. Haven't missed it whatsover.
I'm a WalMart supporter and shop there every week. But this is a bad business decision by WalMart.
Liberals feel, they don't think. Since they already "feel" that WalMart is bad, promoting the gay agenda isn't going to change that, but it does have the potential to turn off shoppers in middle America.
Bad move, WalMart.
WalMart Ping.
The folks in this household really need to get lives. Big companies "sponsor" activities by just about every special interest group that could possibly include customers or potential customers, and just because a company is one of many sponsors of something doesn't mean it's endorsing the activities of every other business and individual that's also a sponsor.
I don't shop at Wal-Mart because their products suck, their store layout is terrible, their prices are not worth the cost of gas to drive there. Target is closer, higher quality products and competitive prices.
Well, let's see: Liberals hate Walmart because they "exploit" their workers. Now the American Family Association hates Walmart because they gave some money to some gay organization.
I guess Walmart will be closing its doors any day now. Oh...wait...they're making record profits. Never mind.
Wal-mart should cut it out. A boycott of their Chinese crap by a disordered 2 per cent of the population isn't going to put them out of business.
I live in Boise so I can watch to see what happens.
If this is just taking place down at BSU then it won't really effect me, and pretty much won't effect anyone else except the people that already support the "diversity week" and would be at the event anyways.
Now if this were taking place AT the walmart stores themselves then I would have a problem with it.
Counter-protest? Probably not, but I definitly wouldn't shop at the stores during the week this was taking place and 95% of my daily shopping is done at Walmart, the other 5% at WinCo (WinCo has better meats, produce, and deli).
In a fine Western state like Idaho, what would that consist of? Some Brokeback Moutain action, maybe?
