The antigay American Family Association is targeting Home Depot because the retail chain sponsored pride festivals and offers domestic partner benefits to its employees.

Boycott The Home Depot

I think actions like this only make the AFA look like an extremist organization.

I go to Home Depot for my hardware and building supplies, why should I give a @x!* about anything else but price? If I need to brush up on morality issues, I'll talk to my clergyman.

And the Home Depot will care about this why exactly? The spending power of all 3 AFA members living in Tupelo, Mississippi versus the spending power of a demographic well known for taking pride in their residences and spending a lot of money on home improvement projects. No brainer.

Except you realize your hatred for gays makes you the losing party in the culture wars, right?

Like everyone else has moved on. Stop being obsessed with gay people
