There are billions and billions of reasons to hate McDonald's. They took the McRib away, for one, and that burns. (Sometimes I almost wish I'd never loved it at all.) There's at least one good reason to like McDonald's: They're being boycotted by the American Family Association.
What did McDonald's do to cross the AFA, its president, Donald Wildmon, and -- by extension -- Jesus (R-Nz.)? They donated $20,000 to the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. McDonald's' revenue runs about five billion dollars a quarter, so you can see their profound commitment to destroying the family through sodomy.
The AFA says that by donating one thousandth of one percent of its 2007 earnings,
"McDonald's has chosen not to remain neutral but to give the full weight of their corporation to promoting the homosexual agenda."
Which seems like a kind of shrill definition of "full weight," but maybe it's like the Quarter Pounder®, and it's the weight before cooking that counts.
It feels a little like the American Family Association was looking for someone to boycott and it was just McDonald's' turn. They've already boycotted Sears, Kohl's, Kmart, Target, Old Navy and IKEA. As a result, they're naked and don't have anywhere to sit. The McDonald's boycott follows boycotts of Burger King, Carl's Jr., 7-11, Proctor & Gamble and Kraft, which means Donald Wildmon hasn't eaten anything for sale in America since the late '70s. You'd think he'd be dead, but no.
(He's a good guy. I'll bet he loads up on locusts, beetles and grasshoppers, like it says in Leviticus. The same book that -- there's no getting around it -- says homosexuality is an abomination, absolutely as heinous in G*d's eyes as strong drink.)
Does the AFA hate homosexuals? Absolutely not! It says so, right on their website, under the heading and sub-head: "Does AFA Hate Homosexuals? Absolutely Not!"
Should McDonald's take the boycott seriously? The customer is always right, I guess. (I think that's from Deuteronomy.) But McDonald's might want to think about the kind of customers they're losing. They appear to be lunatics.
Oh look, here are some of their thoughts:
"YOU DID NOT BILD YOUR COMPANY ON HOMOSEXUAL PEOPLE! IT WAS BUILD ON FAMILY VALUES! MAN,WIFE.CHILDREN!MOSTLTY CHILDREN! THEY DON'T COME FROM HOMO PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"What next, Adam & Steve in the children's happy meals? i WILL not condone the Corp. of Mc Donalds to force me to shop where it is not in lign with my believe in God and HIS scripture..."
"I have stopped at my last McDonald. If you support homos, that is fine with me. I do not have to eat your burgers. Maybe there are enough homos around to keep your arches open."
"I suppose next the playground will be open for pedifiles in order to not offend them."
"You have joined God's list of enemies!"
"What's next? Support for the Man-Boy Love Association! This shall not stand!"
"The McFaddin Family will vote with our Money and Feet and take our business elsewhere! You can stuff your Happy Gay Meal and Happy Gay Agenda where the Sun don't Shine!"
"If the McDonald's heirarchy thinks we'll buy their burgers and support deranged homosexual activists who force their lifestyle on innocent children in the public schools, they had better think again. Their burgers now have a smelly odor to them."
"You advertise straight to children (Happy Meals). Can anyone say pederasty? This lifestyle' you embolden is really a deathstyle!"
"The only thing you'll be cooking is yourselves, for eternity."
"the next thing you know RONALD will be molesting our children. No big macks for this family."
"Are you also going to support open activity between man and beast? You are helping to open the door to bestiality, sex with children, plural homosexual marriages and the list goes on!"
"Dear, McDonald's. Last week I ate a cheeseburger at your restaurant. If I would've known it was created by gay loving hands, I wouldn't have purchased it. Don't you guys know gays were behind the holocaust? First Jews, and now the family. What is next, McDonald's? Are you going to help gays eradicate sand? WHAT WILL WE DO WITHOUT SAND!?!?"
"I recently saw two young teenagers making out. I figure McDonalds is no longer my kind of place. I think the sixteen year old worked there."I just had a thought -- honest to God, I swear this wasn't where I was heading with this thing; I was just going to make a lot of snotty remarks about reductio ad absurdum and the McFaddin Family's feet -- but it occurs to me that McDonald's has done something brilliant:
They've deliberately offended a demographic they don't want.
For just $20,000, they've chased off all the crazy people who hang around McDonald's sputtering and ranting and making me not want to eat there.
It's genius.
Now, if they'd just bring back the McRib.

You know, a whopper sounds good about now.
"The only thing you'll be cooking is yourselves, for eternity."
Damn is no one laughing at this? Who knew God lovers were so funny, lmao.
Hmm I think I will get some fries from there on Monday.
Blast, now I have to decide whether to continue my one-man boycot of McDonalds over their business practices or start eating there again because they support LGBT rights and offended the AFA (always praiseworthy).

Go McDonald's. Who knew?
The fundies can rant but they're doomed too. Their Old Testament God also condemns people who wear cloth woven of more than one fabric and we all know dacron-polyester was a big hit with the Bible yahoos. Just taking the Bible literally, that's all.
LOL.....but, the statement about mixed threads and cloth is correct.
There's something in there about shellfish too.
HA, they are really bad at spelling.
Why do these guys believe that all pederasts are homosexuals? It's like they are forgetting about all the young girls and women that get raped each year, by straight men. But I guess you can't really expect reason from people who would support this boycott.
Oh and as a side note if McDonalds helps homosexuals to eradicate sand, I think I would be for it anyone with that amount of power deserves our respect. I'd apply for a job right away.
"It's like they are forgetting about all the young girls and women that get raped each year, by straight men."
BINGO!!! You would THINK that the AFA would spend less time harrassing McDonalds and a bit MORE time with all of those pesky Mormon compounds in the S.West. (Or all those pesky catholic PRIESTS! but thats another matter..)
Let me see photos of these folk and I'll tell you if they are boycotting fast food.
My hunch is that you would need an ultra wide angle lens to get them in their entirety into the frame.
People aren't okay with the snogging?
So, Chris, do you mean that that pencil-eraser-across=teeth sensation that you get when you bite into a McRib did not bother you? Me neither. Yum!
"Plural homosexual marriage"?
I must admit, I hadn't thought of that.
Great post, just one thing...
It would be better if you changed the title to "McDonald's Makes BABY Jesus Cry". It's always funnier when people refer to baby Jesus. ah, the crazy religious fundies, where would we get our daily dose of crazy without them? lol
Actually, if Jesus had a political agenda, He would probably be a Democrat/Liberal and not a Conservative. But hey, thanks for going with the stereotype!
What is worse, ignorantly following a book or ignorantly consuming food that is bound to kill you?
It's funny really. They cling to a passage in Leviticus which calls homosexuality an abomination but conveniently ignore the rest of the book. Gotta love self-righteous hypocrites.
To paraphrase: The enemy of my enemy is NOT my friend.
Dear God!
NOW I am super super Hungry for a yummy
McDonald's Hamburger!
The regular one. The one that tastes like candy.
I could eat about 3 of them right now!
YUM! I have the munchies.
