from the American Family ASSociation: :crazy:



Home Depot exposes children to homosexuality in celebrated style


Home Depot is a willing participant in exposing children to unhealthy and risky homosexual events.

Clad in rainbow colors and Human Rights Campaign stickers, these Home Depot employees help promote the company's outspoken pride for homosexuality.According to the 2010 Southern Maine Pride website, Home Depot signed on as a major sponsor of its 2010 Gay Pride Festival. But simply financing the event wasn't enough for the big box chain.

Home Depot also signed on as a vendor, conducting kid's craft workshops for children in the midst of loud and boisterous gay activities.

To this end, Home Depot is basically encouraging the attendance of children at events which openly expose them to transvestites, cross-dressers, and homosexual activists.

Unfortunately, Home Depot's participation in the Southern Maine Pride Festival doesn't stand alone. It has also sponsored and participated in the 2010 Boston Gay Pride parade.

Homosexuals often exploit young children in their desire to 'normalize' their gay lifestyle.Gay pride events have a long track record for offensive public displays of homosexual conduct. Obviously, Home Depot is OK with the idea of exposing children to an unhealthy and risky environment. So much so, it is willing to also celebrate it by participating in its promotion.

right wing! I'll have to reassess.

6. If these freaks are so offended, why are they taking their kids to Gay Pride Festivals?
Shouldn't Child Protective Services be alerted to these perverts who are forcing their kids to experience these things so that the parents can be indignant about it all?

:crazy:

7. Guess the AFA didn't get the memo
Home Depot is a right wing corporation based in Georgia. They were HUGH Chimp contributors, and it's rumored that's why there was the one infamous color coded terra alert where Chimp and Ridge told us all to buy shit loads of duct tape and plastic window coverings. They got all their money back from that little panic.

9. Is getting The Gay actually cheaper there?
I'm going to still shop around, I hear that online prices are sometimes cheaper, even though you have to wait a week or so for delivery.


Home Depot is doing what any smart retailer should do...see who has money to spend, and try to get that demographic to spend it on their store.

Last time I heard, everyone's money is still green, no matter their sexual orientation.



And the AFA is still run by certifiable loons.

16. I get my gay locally, part of the
Edited on Tue Jun-22-10 09:51 AM by cliffordu
"100 miles" gay program.

If you get your gay from within 100 miles of where you live, the gay is fresher and the carbon footprint is lower.


Unless, of course, you drive a hummer.





I get the feeling more companies are going to have to vote on these kinds of things with their bottom lines rather than kowtow to the clowns at the AFA.

21. "GEIGH MANSECKS!"
Seriously, what is it with these Association of Fucking Assholes idiots and their blatant perversity? John Rechy couldn't describe sexual acts, invented or not, with such graphic detail.

Just like Republicans with their perceived image of anyone to the left of Joe Lieberman being a Leninist, these AFA asshats have the conception that "Same Sex" must equal "Nude Wesson Oil BDSM and Twister 24-7". They will never see them as normal everyday people who just want to live their lives like the rest of us do.

17. Home Depot sucks ass for a number of reasons, but this isn't one of them
I guess nobody at the American Family Association never tried to get some help in their plumbing department :rofl:


I can't wait till this old leftover generation of racists and homophobes dies out...The 40's and 50's sucked, and you are not bringing them back thank you very much!
