this, i mean boycotting  "back then" during revolutionary war times was deserved, now it's just "wow this guy is entitled to his own opinion, what a loving douche let's not buy anything and boycott him to stuff"

i disagree. if someone said "blacks shouldn't be allowed to vote", wouldn't you want to dissent that kind of behavior? boycotting it makes sense; it's just the stufftiest PR move to oppose the LGBTQ community now; they have buying power.

it's the same fundamental idea; you shouldn't oppose how somebody is if they were born that way and can't help it.

it makes sense though. once again, if somebody said "i hate spics they will never be in my commercials", would you not feel that they're an starfish? besides, if people like barilla are the ones preventing you from marrying the person you love, why is it so bad to get some revenge by boycotting them?

but they aren't preventing it

[ultimamax]

what? people with this opinion are the ones preventing these guys getting married, something which doesn't effect them at all. that's my point.

but if you read the article he says he supports gay marriage, just not the right for gays to adopt....

same logic applies.
