I just went ahead and 'liked' all of these companies on Facebook: Home Depot, Ford, Pepsi, Campbell Soup Company, McDonald's and Hallmark

Honestly this is laughable. Going after Home Depot now? why? because legally and politically they have long lost their cause. This is just pathetic on the part of the AFA and in the eyes of anyone with a brain makes them an easy target for mockery. I mean What's next Chuck E Cheese?

Pathetic.

There's actually a nice list of LGBT-friendly and supportive businesses somewhere on http://www.hrc.org/ . I make sure to use Home Depot for exactly this reason. I love businesses who care enough to actively support these causes.

While supporting human rights is to be commended I'm not sure corporations/companies need to get on this human sexuality bandwagon. Staying neutral makes more sense. You don't piss anyone off then. While I don't consider myself a homophobe I am not entirely comfortable around them. Working as a correctional officer in a state prison unfortunately has skewed my feelings. I won't get into what I saw. Having said that I am all for treating anyone fairly and without bias no matter their individual sexual persuasion. Legislation should not attempt to control their actions.

I personally have a "hard on" for the megastores. Their product line is almost 90 percent CHINESE. Support America and visit the Mom & Pop hardware stores. Although they sell some crap from China also.

I'm not a big Home Depot fan, but I do applaud them for not backing down in the face of religious insanity. Methinks I'll swing by there, armed with anti-religion tracts, and pick up a new houseplant.

As long as you know what you need and don't need a sales droid Home Depot is just fine.

As for homosexuals, I have no problem with how anyone lives their life, as long as it hurts no one else or doesn't effect me.  No one can agree with everything after all...

I think I can agree with pretty much everyone that Home Depot should be applauded. It's great to see companies come out against bigotry and hatred.

@Flower- All well..I find that some of my family [specially my mother] can be the 'run-away' type of Christian. They hold what they believe so dear but don't dare to discuss it or their own opinions. Sometimes, it's just fun to hear their side and learn about their views.
