In 2012 when LGBT people and our supporters started a Boycott of Chick-fil-A for their strong anti-gay statements and donations to anti-gay groups which were fighting against Marriage Equality Huckabee accused of
economic terrorism.
At the time he stated:
On his Fox News show, he said he would never call for a boycott of Starbucks, Apple or Amazon even though he disagrees with their leaders’ politics.
Fast forward to today and Huckabee and David Lane is calling for a boycott of Frito Lay because of their
Rainbow Doritos!
The GOP presidential candidate’s anti-Frito Lay campaign reportedly came at the behest of David Lane, a Republican organizer who has linked gays to everything from car bombs to America’s looming destruction and who bizarrely suggests that the creation of Rainbow Doritos could destroy America and curtail religious freedom.
When it became clear that Frito-Lay would not back down, Huckabee and Lane called on Christians to boycott all snacks made by the company in order to protest the perceived connection to Savage, whom they call an “anti-Christian bully.” In a letter to over 100,000 pastors, Lane wrote that “tolerance for Frito-Lay’s brazen corporate support of hate speech by Dan Savage— that were it directed toward Muslim’s, would warrant a Justice Department investigation and prosecution— is chipping away at the very character and soul of the American experience.”
As I said, hypocrite much Huckabee?
The worst part is when these bigots like Huckabee even stoop as low as to fight against efforts to make it better for LGBT youth!
It just proves these bigots could not even care less about our youth. Of course we knew that all along but its nice to call out the proof when we see it.
