Everyone should boycott McD's..but for other reasons! Personally I don't care who's making my food, what the politics are of the company, none of it..so long as they don't spit in my food :p  |

They should start their own Christian Conservative Hamburger joint of their own and tell everyone that they don't treat gay marriage as a legal union.Want Fries with that speech.LOL  |

My dad is boycotting them for this same reason. Just because I agree with same sex marriages I now buy a big mac once a month, and I eat it infront of my father :)  |

I'd kill for a big mac with mayo instead of "special sauce" and with NO onion. But seeing as I'm in France and my French isn't fluent - it just never turns out quite right... And I'd love it even better if it cost me $3 (2 Euro) - The combo meal here is about 7-8 Euro (12 Bucks) and the drink is about the size of a small drink in the US. pfffff - gotta love Paris! :)  |

I'm sure this boycott will just about destroy the very foundation of the McDonalds franchise. AFA no, what have you done?! Yeah right.  |

Now I neither diagree or agree with boycotts. Let me play devil's advocate. Would you buy products that was owned by an advocater of terrorist organisations? Or one that pay's their workers 20 cents a day to make sneakers. The only difference is that we think these things are bad. The sad thing is that money talks these days and we often speak with our money now.  |

"Aren’t people kind of over reaching when they act like it’s our moral obligation to refrain from buying products because a company does something deemed as immoral?" What about stores that are supplied by sweatshops? A boycott is a perfectly reasonable way of expressing one's opinion, even if the opinion itself is idiotic.  |

See I can understand boycotting for worker rights, because that's actual quality of living stuff....This gay boycott is just...gay...aka dumb  |

well technically gay rights is human rights as well? I don't have an opinion as such I am just playing the devils advocate. |

Weather or not a gay (aka dumb) employee can have their spouse on their bennifits isn't a quality of life thing?! It is for me, it means that my g/f can go to the Dr. or have her teeth worked on or get her eyes checked, it makes a BIG difference in the quallity of our lives thank you very much! I know this is not a debate about the whole gay marriage thing, but I just had to say that. Now, a boycott is the only way for a group of people to put their money where their mouths are. That would be why many gay people stamp their paper money with a "GAY MONEY" stamp. Money is the only thing that makes a company choose what to do in any situation. The bottom line is what matters most to them. I don't usually eat at Mc Death, but I may very well just go there tomorrow now that I know they need the support of this gay consumer...  |

*rolls eyes* The American Family Association should concern themselves with their own individual families, not with whom is with whom. Or if same-sex couples get benefits.  |

OMG! we got so many real problems in this country and people are hyped up over this? i bet ronald is shaking in his big red shoes! my aunt was fussing about me going to mcdonalds a few weeks ago. i told her i was going to drive thru for a buscuit and a sweet tea while we were waiting for my mom to have surgery. my dad said to get him something too. my aunt wanted me to go someplace else. i told her i would go someplace else for her (thinking she just wanted hardees or something) but i had to have my sweet tea. she said i was to go to hardees for everything because we (as in NOT me) no longer support mcdonalds because they support "the gays". i am not kidding!! she actually said that out loud! what a moron. i told her i didn't care who they did or didn't support. i have to have my mickey d's sweet tea and you can't get that at hardees! then she started preaching to me. like i give a flying turd about what people do. then some random stranger joined in the conversation and said she no longer takes her grandson there because of the gays. by this time i still need my sweet tea and i'm getting cranky and i told them both i would go where i want when i want and it wasn't nobody's business. and i will continue to drop my change into the ronald mcdonald house fund right outside the pay window. and pray that neither one of them ever finds themself in a situation where they may need to stay at a ronald mcdonald house. who knows, they may let the gays stay there!  |

i have no problems with same sex benifits i think it's a liberal thing for them to do (taking a step up where other companies have not).. and question 2 McDs and any private business has the right to deny service to anyone who they wish to, but they don't because it gives them a bad repuation any store or restarunt is in thier legal right to ask someone to leave  |
