Queerty's 10 Companies That Hate The Gays (via

I'm still on the fence about boycotts, seeing as how they're poorly thought out most of the time but damn, seeing those names on the list just makes me want to stomp on things. Even this:
A Fortune 1000 Company, Brown-Forman distributes Jack Daniels, Southern Comfort, Finlandia Vodkas, Herradura Tequila, Sonoma-Cutrer Wines, Fetzer Wines, Korbel Champagne, Bolla Wines, Bonterra Wines, but provides no comfort to its gay and lesbian employees, refusing even basic domestic partner benefits.
*tear* Oh well, I've still got Guinness. Yeah, I know Guinness isn't vegan ... IDK, lesser of all evils?

I do have a story on the brighter side of SA: during the '04 wildfires in Riverside County, SA helped my classmate find a place with donated clothing and food when he lost his home. But if they had known he was gay... *shivers* It's just wrong. I don't know what part of Christianity would justify turning away a person in need.

Lucky they didn't know about your friend.
