Hold on. Just because they explicitly say they won't discriminate against someone because they're gay...this is a reason to boycott? Look, I don't care if the person stocking the shelves is gay--I just want my tupperware to be reasonably priced.

I am a strong conservative, but I do not agree with you. Of course if you think a boycott is justified, then go for it.

I've got co-workers who are gay. What do I do: refuse to talk with them? Associate? Some are better employees than some "straight-laced, religious" co-workers.

We're not talking about buying a militant, pro-gay marriage agenda here. We're talking about having a workplace where people can earn a living.

Well said.

I believe most conservatives support equal rights under the law for gays when it comes to housing and employment.
