Some of you might have seen this before, from mutual friends or because a lot of us seem to be from Texas, but here goes:


Recently, HEB spent $300 to support the Gay Pride parade in San Antonio. Take a look at what a Christian radio station in SA has done with it.

Now, don't get me wrong - I have no problem with people not supporting businesses that they don't agree with - I don't buy Chick-fil-a anymore for the same reason. My ire comes at them comparing supporting gays to supporting terrorists; to this group demanding that HEB rescind it's support and apologize publicly for said support, etc.


And if you take a look at Adam's Stands, you'll just vomit. This stood out to me:


"I've been accused of being 'homophobic'. But I'm not afraid of homosexuals, I'm afraid for homosexuals. The average age of death for a homosexual male with AIDS is 39. And the average age of death for a homosexual male without AIDS is only 42. It seems like the compassionate approach would be to challenge the person to stop participating in unnatural deviant behaviors that lead to his own premature death."

Where the fuck does this guy get this statistic? I've heard of zealots thinking that gays are just killing themselves off and only live a few scant years because of their 'deviant lifestyle' but ohmigod.

Anyway. Write some emails of your own and show your support.
