meaning you didn't truly research your reason for buying the Honda.


For the record... Allan Gilmour is gay.

He was one of the men involved in making your F150.

Guess you need to trade that one in.

My purchase of my F150 is money already spent before any enlightenment on my part.

Who the hell cares where Ford advertises? I'm sure there are ads in Playboy and Penthouse too (would that mean they are pushing ****?). Just like any other product. So if a "GOT MILK" ad is published in a gay magazine, should we stop buying milk?

Yea...yea and I heard that Hitler admired Henery Ford and quotes him in Mein Kamfp ( spelling?). Even though Ford had black foremen on the assembly line, back in tyhe 30's. he was on of the first to do so. Promotion based on merit and the work ethic is a good thing.

So many conspiracy theories.

I don't care... Ford makes a good truck

That one about the animal cruelty is quite the hilarious spoof.

The one about racisim is open to debate. Did Honda also charge extra based only on the merits of a persons credit history. If they did then you cant call that racial profileing just because the greater proportion of poor credit history may be in its nature predominantly associated with a black person.

The issue here is that the money spent advertising in a magazine that may promote a homosexual life style is indirectly supporting that magazine and thereby supports that life style. I don't know what that magazine is nor have i ever read it so I do not have an opinion other than the one stated above.

It's so strange to me that there is such close mindedness around homosexuality. I guess it just doesn't bother me. I mean, gay pride parades and stuff are bit over the top. I don't want to see homosexualtiy pushed on the general populace as much as I don't want to see any other sexaul preference/nonpreference pushed. This whole I "won't buy whatever, because they have associated with gays" thing is, to me, just bizzarre. I agree totally to the companies advertising in Playboy, Penthouse, or whatever else. If there's a market for a product then the ads should be there, that's just common buisiness sense.

I guess in the end, if someone chooses to persue homosexuality it's their choice. I personally stand behind the belief that as long as noone is getting hurt who cares. That's the only thing that holds me back on gay marriage is I don't know if that's the best environment to raise kids, becasue you know some will want that if "married". Just like being a single parent, except most single parents don't actively intend to be in the situation they are in. So, I can't say that it's wrong to be that way, just unfortunate. And sometimes it's actually better for kids to have seperated parents than seeing their parents be at odds all the time. So, that's all very complicated. Gays on the other hand have to actively choose to put kids in that situation. I'm not so sure if that's the best. I know a couple gay men that I would trust my child with no question, I just wouldn't want him raised thinking that was the way things should be.


Bleh, hard topic. But I know that calling someone "bad", to the point they actively work against that goup for their sexual preference is just shallow to me. But that being said, it's free country, you're all entitled to your opinions as I am. God bless the USA
