  • WarpDigger1492, on 07/03/2008, -4/+183There are many reasons to boycott McDonald's; gay clowns and hamburglars, however, are not one of those reasons.
  • FuryOfThor, on 07/03/2008, -4/+136Because it's their tolerance of a homosexuality, not their nutritionally void food, increasingly obnoxious ads, and questionable environmental practices, that is destroying the American family.

    But thanks to AFA's protest, McDonald's sounds pretty appealing. Mmm, super-sized fries with a side of personal freedom. Delicious.
  • mentallyinhell, on 07/03/2008, -4/+122Seriously? You couldn't think of another reason to boycott McDonald's? You had to go and attack gays too?
  • inactive, on 07/03/2008, -2/+97Okay now that's just ridiculous
  • BevansDesign, on 07/03/2008, -11/+86What makes Ronald gay? He seems to like boys and girls equally.

    That makes him a pedophile, not gay.

    Of course, the right-wingers have a long history of protecting pedophiles.
  • mediaspree, on 07/03/2008, -3/+65Grimace doing the Hamburgler doggy style. Where is your god now?!
  • Hetman, on 07/03/2008, -5/+59LOL The christian right are the most homophobic people in the world. It is border line ridiculous. Half of them must be in the closet it is the only reason I can see why they would go out of there way to see a gay agenda where there is no gay agenda. I do not know if I should laugh at them or cry because of there ignorants. If Ronald McDonald is gay then every clown should be considered gay.
  • Dumbledorito, on 07/03/2008, -4/+52So according to the AFA, McDonalds is about toys and families and kids?

    I thought it was about selling you the comfort of knowing you'll die from heart disease while making you and your kids look like the illegitimate offspring of the Michelin Man and a bean-bag chair.
  • pintomp3, on 07/03/2008, -6/+51i guess that makes him an assclown?
  • Vegabondsx, on 07/03/2008, -5/+50Ignorance and Intolerance FTL!
  • shutaro, on 07/03/2008, -1/+39At Burger King...
  • Infidelcastr0, on 07/03/2008, -1/+38The Right would be hilarious if they weren't so dangerous.
  • mattluiz, on 08/28/2009, -1/+34PLEASE let Colbert or Stewart see this!
  • inactive, on 07/03/2008, -4/+37Oh dear God, I just ate a Big Mac today - I really hope I didn't catch the gay.
  • prompel, on 07/03/2008, -8/+40Only in the US, the Land of the Free.

    Seriously, if your tiny little world doesn't have bigger problems than that, then you live in a fairy tale.

    Fairy tale, heh heh heh heh
  • smashingmonkey, on 07/03/2008, -2/+33How many anti-gay activists need to be outed before people realize that there's nothing gayer than being anti-gay? In other words, methinks the lady doth protest too much.
  • netneutrality, on 07/03/2008, -5/+36Loonies. Ah well. At least it gives 'em something to do and keeps them from getting into government or anything.
  • CrashKC, on 08/25/2008, -2/+31I know, right? It's not an agenda. It's more of a day planner, really.
  • burnstyle, on 07/03/2008, -1/+29so we should boycott the AFA?

    alright... im down for that.
  • damntourists, on 07/03/2008, -4/+31yes.
  • markperia, on 07/03/2008, -4/+30Seriously, what the ***** is this gay agenda they're talking about anyway? Do they think there's like a board of gay men and women planning to take over the world by turning everyone gay or something?
  • MScrip, on 07/03/2008, -1/+25Ronald is OK... but that new Burger King is ***** scary. His plastic face never moves and it freaks me out the way he smiles.
  • marx2k, on 07/03/2008, -1/+24The AFA: getting less relevant by the day
  • KLowD9x, on 07/03/2008, -2/+24Typing like that is not a good way to get your point across.
  • MScrip, on 07/03/2008, -0/+22He's not a pedophile... he's a clown. Kids are his clients.

    So are elementary school teachers pedophiles too?
  • CaptShmo, on 07/03/2008, -3/+24He likes it in his Golden Arches
  • artofficial, on 07/03/2008, -1/+22I could defiantly see the King filming that...giving the thumbs up.
  • jaybol, on 07/03/2008, -0/+20dugg for digging the mental image
  • BevansDesign, on 07/03/2008, -1/+21Dugg for the mental image.
  • shondell, on 07/03/2008, -1/+21If anything, I always considered Ronald as pedophile.
  • StaticThunder, on 07/03/2008, -0/+20For every hamburger they don't eat, I'll eat three.

    On a less sarcastic note, who are the AFA and why should I give a *****?
  • amoirae, on 07/03/2008, -1/+21So eating Big Macs leads to eating *****? If that were true, staight guys everywhere would be feeding their women McDonald's morning, noon, and night.
  • a1cd, on 07/03/2008, -1/+20So you would be fine with a man and a woman doing the same thing? Heck the only way we can be safe is to fire all the humans and hire Robots.
  • spence448, on 07/03/2008, -3/+21No it's true all those hormones in the beef are making people gay. Sen. Larry Craig never had sex in a bathroom till he started eating big macs....
  • atlquaker, on 07/03/2008, -1/+18Over 1 Billion Served
  • Bjover, on 07/03/2008, -1/+16Yes he is gay and the "King" is a stalking pedophile waiting to give you sexual favors when you wake up staring him in the face. I saw it on the television it must be real.
  • Animal, on 07/03/2008, -1/+16That would certainly cause the Hamburgler to grimace.
  • BeefBaron, on 07/04/2008, -3/+16Welcome to the "conservative" side of life!
    Randomly boycotting corporations, one gay excuse at a time.
  • Wangeye, on 07/03/2008, -1/+14Crab people.
  • therealrico, on 07/03/2008, -1/+15Does anyone really even care what the American Family Association says? They can go to hell for I care!
  • Samo89, on 07/03/2008, -8/+20o just stfu u stupid conservatives

  • CJ117, on 07/03/2008, -1/+13How dare they call themselves an "American" association.. this is why so many other countries hate ours.
  • JoaoPe, on 07/03/2008, -2/+15Dugg for a turtle driving a car in the middle of nowhere, during spring, of course.
  • tj111, on 07/04/2008, -2/+14I heard eating at McDonald's can give you the gay.
  • SimonTB, on 07/03/2008, -1/+12Dugg for sarcasm.

    Or incredibly hilarious ignorance. Either way, dugg.
  • Crossmenjeff, on 07/03/2008, -1/+12by the transitive property they've just boycotted America.
  • artofficial, on 07/03/2008, -1/+13yeah, now it's just one size fits all.
