Golden arches gone rainbow?

Recent news has gotten my dander up. As a disclaimer, I have nothing against these alternate lifestyles. I don't think it's the best, and certainly outside of God's design but I've have also known some very kind gay men back in my college days that treated women much better then some of the straight fellows out there.

Some may know that we have been boycotting McDonald's since they paid $20,000 to become a member of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce and have a seat on the board of directors. There are a whole bunch of issues that McDonald's has been involved in and I think it's inappropriate for a business to get that involved. Although, some would say that remaining neutral is hate against the Gay and Lesbians...

Anyway...There was an annual parade in San Francisco demonstrating Gay and Lesbian pride which AFA say McDonald's help sponsor. The pictures from the parade included full frontal nudity. Men walking down the street in nothing but rainbow paint. Men and women in leather studded get-up that covered nothing. I could go on....but I think you get the idea. By the way, there were children at the parade who saw all this.

They (They, being those within their community who shout the loudest) say they want equal rights...but if the straight community was to have a similar display they would have been arrested for indecent exposure AND hate crimes. They want to be above the law and have proven that they can get away with it.

Now the part that really gets me is compare this to the harassment that a breastfeeding mother gets. Here she is doing something that is natural, and within God's perfect plan and that is considered indecent exposure but many, many people. I'm not talking about someone breastfeeding a 5 year old...that I would admit is difficult to watch.

  2. Isn't it amazing how offende people get over nursing, but they think nudity in this context is no big deal?
