But they're going to run out of companies to shop at by the time they're done boycotting companies that are gay-supportive. I also often wonder how the anti-gay folks go through their days without encountering gay folks. I mean, they eat in restaurants, they travel on planes, they check into hotels, they use conference centers -- how do they avoid gay folks when so many gays are employed in these fields? Are they so willfully blind that they really don't see us? Or are they simply so driven by bile that they ignore the evidence in front of them that we're decent folks who do a fine job for everyone. Or do they have a network of "no-gay-workers" companies to avoid us completely? I find it ironic that the anit-gay folks use Facebook, what with its gay founders.

So they can use stone tablets and chisels! I have a strong suspicion that the creators of various Linux distros might not agree with the bigots either.

I suggest they boycott certain states. If I lived in Massachusetts, for example, I'd offer to help anti-gay residents pack their bags if they would migrate to a real bigoted state, such as Mississippi. It'd be a win/win for everyone: I'd be happier, and they'd be happier being closer to the AFA. Why stop with just boycotting businesses? I suggest they boycott certain states.

Didn't you know that the anti-gay side is boycotting Google as well, as both the company and its 2 founders support marriage equality? You need to send a letter of inquiry to Alta Vista or HotBot.
