Is Safeway, Albertson’s, Whole Foods, KFC, JCPenny, McDonalds, Starbucks, Apple to , Levis, and Google on the boycott list?

Many of these are already on a botcott list pertaining to support and donations to the abortion mill, Planned Parenthood.

Interesting how support for gay “marriage” seems to go hand in hand with abortion.😦
 
I don’t do boycotts. I shop for my convenience.

Frankly, almost every company either takes stands you don’t agree with, or gives money where you wouldn’t, or pays people who do things with their salary you don’t agree with, or…

If we want Christian businesses to survive in the next decades, we need to embrace freedom for all companies.

Yes, but “we” very convieniently “boycott” at the drop of a hat…except when I need a carton of milk of course and don’t want to drive across town to the only market that doesn’t supply same sex partner benefits…then I’ll “sneak” into Safeway and buy my milk…BUT I AM BOYCOTTING!!!..Just not this time as it’s not “convienient” for me to do so…and no one is looking.🙂

AMTRAK…used by so many…can’t boycott them though…it would cost us something and be an HUGE inconvienience to those of us who use it for transportation…they get a “wink and nod” I guess.🙂

I’m thinking we only really want to boycott those companys that we don’t patronize in the first place…but then…that’s not really a boycott…is it? But we do feel good saying we do.🙂
 
Ack. Stab… my heart…

I love Target, or Targét - as I call it.

I’m heart broken, but I have questions. Is this just a function of their wedding registry on one of their kiosks? Because that’s how it looks. Will it only be available in areas where gay marriage is legal?

I have no problem with, a few T-shirts being discretly sold for a week. And I think I could stomache an extra tab under the wedding registry - if gay marriage is legal where I live. I wouldn’t buy that shirt or click that tab, but it’s not as in your face like a commercial on TV or a full out campaign promoting homosexual marriage would be.

I feel like there is almost no where I can go now where my conscience isn’t being assaulted, but even as I type that I feel like that statement is a no-brainer. This world is the Devils playground, afterall.

The nicest way to get between two cities on their routes. No view like that from the Lake Shore Limited racing along the Hudson River south into NYC, and a grand way to enter Chicago on the Texas Eagle. You don’t get that by car or airplane. 😃

Not to mention that American Airlines is gay friendly…so perhaps by car would be best way to not support same sex marriage…unless of course one owns a Ford.🙂

Well worth it considering they’re losing $10,000/ mile:D

Me, too. Bought a laptop there that was $100 off the regular price, and like a lot of their proprietary food items. They’re also the only place around here that sells Tab.

Did you ever doubt that? 😉
 
I find this whole issue so frustrating. A boycott can be a very effective tool in a capitalistic market. But one has to either have an alternative, or be willing to go without. It seems there isn’t really an alternative these days. Almost all major department/household goods stores seem to be supportive of the gay agenda. I would love to shop at a mom and pop shop, but there aren’t any in this area. Even the dollar stores are big chains.

I have quite a bit of “back to school” shopping to do. I think I’ll just pare my list down and pray hard, but shop at Target/Pennys/Walmart/Costco/Kohls anyway. 😦

For clothes, yes. Some of the parishes here that have schools sell school supplies. Not discounted, of course, but one is helping the parish by buying from them, albeit by spending a few dollars more.
 
My wife and I have done some back to school shopping at flea markets… we have a large flea market here in Roseville… brand new clothes for usually around WalMart prices. Just saying.
