McDonalds promotes the "gay agenda" at a 10% discount.....
:scared:


.....just when you think these people can't get any crazier......:crazy:



from the American Family Assocication-affiliated Boycott McDonalds website:



McDonald's to gay event: We qualify for your group discount

Take Action!

• Sign the online Boycott McDonald's petition.
• Forward this to family and friends and ask them to sign the petition.
• Print and distribute the Boycott McDonald's petition.
• VERY IMPORTANT. Call your local McDonald's. Speak with the manager. Tell him or her (in a polite manner) that you will be boycotting McDonald's until they stop promoting the homosexual agenda, including homosexual marriage. To find the phone number of your nearest McDonald's, click here. Enter your zip code and click "Enter," then click the "Visit/Apply" link for your store, then click the "Click Here to see what's happening at the restaurant" link. The phone number will appear.


September 16, 2008

A document shows McDonald's requested a 10% "group discount" to a recent pro-homosexual training seminar. Eligibility to receive the discount required "groups of 15 or more registrants for the full price 3-day (Out & Equal 2008 Workplace) Summit."

McDonald’s applied for the special "discount code" off the regular registration price of $775 per person. The registration price did not include the employee's air travel, hotel and meal expenses.

The conference, held in Austin, TX, was designed to train employees how to effectively advance homosexuality in the workplace and to persuade top corporate officials to embrace the lifestyle by offering special recognition and benefits to gay employees.

For example, McDonald's health benefits package includes full coverage for sex-change procedures, post-operative recovery, and mental health counseling throughout the process.

1. I have NOT eaten Mickey Yucks in well over a decade
Is that boycott enough? Almost as long as not shopping at WalMart.

8. Did you ask WHY I won't eat at Mickey Yucks? Of course not
Just jump down my throat. I'll let you keep guessing, since I'm going to bed, and my PERSONAL boycotts of their shit is none of your business anyway.

3. Well, that just means I am going to go peruse the McDonald's menu online now.
So, I can eat at McDonald's more to counteract them.

Note to self: Also look into cholesterol meds and a jogging regiment.

5. There were two older people outside the McDonald's in Aberdeen NC last week picketing over this.
Edited on Tue Sep-23-08 08:36 PM by Hissyspit
They had signs like "Marriage is Between A Man and Woman." Two Aberdeen cops were standing there with them. I didn't stick around to see what happened. Apparently they think it is really important that McDonald's should discriminate against their employees.

I was wondering what it was about.

13. What am I suppose to be afraid of exactly?
I think we need to boycott the AFA and have them tagged as domestic terrorist.

I have a sneaking suspicion that all clowns are crossdressers....

Doesn't the Bible say all clowns will burn in hell? I know it's in there somewhere...
