Straight from their website:
Great News!
Because of AFA supporters like you, McDonald’s has told AFA it will remain neutral in the culture war regarding homosexual marriage. AFA is ending the boycott of McDonald’s. As you know, AFA called for the boycott in May after McDonald’s joined the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC).
McDonald’s said it’s Vice President, Richard Ellis, has resigned his position on the board of directors of NGLCC and his seat on the board will not be replaced. McDonald’s also said that the company has no plans to renew it’s membership in NGLCC when it expires in December.
In an e-mail to McDonald’s franchised owners, the company said, “It is our policy to not be involved in political and social issues. McDonald’s remains neutral on same sex marriage or any ‘homosexual agenda’ as defined by the American Family Association.”
We appreciate the decision by McDonald’s to no longer support political activity by homosexual activist organizations. You might want to thank your local McDonald’s manager.
Yea Baby!!! - Just these past weeks this has been on Easton's prayers. No joke, he had heard the commercials about the boycott and asked what that meant and why we hadn't eaten there lately.
I told him that while Mc donalds spent there money irrisponsibly in a way not ok to us, then we would not support them.
Just last week he was sharing this "boycott" info to his Grandma and uncle. It blew them away he didn't want Mckey D's.
Carlos just called to tell me. I stopped what i was posting and wrote this instead.
Seriously, just this week Someone gave Easton a Gift card to Mckey D's, then we asked when he wanted to use it. He said " not till they are wise with our money."
I love this Kid.
The way he's sees this so clearly, the way that he's prayed for this, The way he will see the results of praying and fasting from Mckey D's. This is sooo Good!!
