Support the supportive.....

Ignore the ignorant

Borrowing a frequent comment from one of my fellow posters at excite.....

So in that vein, I suggest supporting Kraft Foods, because they are standing firm to the pressure from American Family Association to drop their sponsorship of the 2006 Gay Games being held in Chicago.

Disagree with the whole concept of gays having rights? Then still consider the right of an American Corporation to choose how it sees fit to help contribute in it's own hometown. Kraft Foods sponsors almost 1700 local cash in kind type grants on a yearly basis.

An organization such as American Family Association should not dictate to Kraft Foods who they can help. If the stockholders of Kraft have an issue with it then so be it. But this ever increasing system of a small yet vocal minority creating pressure should be looked at.

Personally I feel it is not my right to judge my fellow man on the basis of his or her sexual preference. Nor is it my right to tell people to stop partaking in the Kraft Mac and Cheese, as it is good.
