‘Disgusting:’ McDonald’s introduces ‘gay pride’ fries, Christians call for boycott

[Sower]

This is why I will frequent and patronize the local mom and pop type of diners, restaurants, and small businesses. If possible, avoid chain and franchise businesses that put the small shops under.  The smaller business  will typically/usually have a more conservative, and personal outlook on life. (Not swayed by corporate) I shy away when possible where the heard feeds at the trough. I do alert friends about businesses/services  taking a stand/support for  corruption, blatantly  public or political types slipping bills through on the sly. In the early eighties, our home school league  had pole watchers in Washington, who would catch  politicians trying to quietly pass an unknown/unpublicized  anti home school or other anti family  bill  through, and would alert key people throughout the country, and they,  in turn they would alert each group within the state and cities and towns, then families. The phones in Washington would get so overloaded with calls, they could not conduct business. Home schoolers were well known back then in Washington. They were very diligent/vocal.  It worked back then.  (And this was PRE-INTERNET)    Ma Bell or Snail Mail.............

What a majority of the public think of boycotts such as this:  Christians hate gays.  

You are not suppose to hate in the name of Christ. You are suppose to love.

McDonald's markets for their bottom line.  If this gets them increase in gross revenue for the month of June that's really disgusting. Especially if all it took was to put a rainbow on the back of the large$ fries with the branding, "I'm lovin it", that  McDonald's already uses every day? 

That's cheap pitch. Possibly because their marketing team knows LGBTQS will fall for it.

To me, boycotts are pointless.  They never really work.  There are a million different reasons to avoid McDonald's that have nothing to do with gay pride.   For instance, if they can sell you  a double cheeseburger for $1, what are they passing off to us as "meat?"  

  Indeed , they are already poisoning the body , now they are poisoning the soul too .

Now? 100% pure beef.  The McDonald’s hamburger deconstructed

Which is why McDonald's is one of the villains in deforestation of the rain forest. http://factsanddetails.com/world/cat52/sub329/item1299.html

Before it was 100% pure beef? Not so much.

If ever Christian decided to stop all McDonald's patronage for one week. They would notice and would think twice about celebrating it. Problem is Christian just don't care or are too apethetic and don't do anything. 

Boycotts use to work and corporations targeted by that would change policies to make it all go away. Al Sharpton and his group made quite a bit of press and money engaging in such actions. But theirs were racist and separatist inclined . And now they've gone away being Al Sharpton's dark side also made news. 

And in todays world that has rapidly declining morals, boycotts now invite commerce rather than impact it negatively. It's the, come see what's wicked and worthy of dissent! And support it as counter protest. 

The world seems to be turning in the direction of giving the antithesis of righteousness its turn. And it seems it is only going to get worse.
