The always shrill American Family Association has now officially called for a boycott of McDonald's fast food restaurants. From Edge Boston: "The boycott seems to stem, in part, from McDonald’s having aired a television commercial in 2007 in the San Francisco market during Pride.... But more directly, the AFA’s call for a boycott follows the company’s acceptance of one of its officers, Vice President of Communications Richard Ellis, having joined the board of directors of the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce." (Read it here.)
AFA chairman Donald Wildmon has set up a website hoping to send McDonald's and its Happy Meals to consumer hell. Never mind that AFA's past boycotts of Disney, Target, and Ford Motors failed miserably. Don's constant fearmongering - Watch out for that Gay Agenda! - is loopier than the Golden Arches he eschews.
(And please note: We did not photoshop this image. Mr. Wildmon really looks like that.)
