The American Family Association (AFA) is rightly recognized as a hate group by multiple organizations such as the Human Rights Campaign.

The second of the three short clips featured Andy and Pat, a same-sex couple. The ad showed Pat and the domestically challenged Andy humorously poring over items such as a cast-iron skillet, soap, and oatmeal cream pies:
The APA issued a statement…
“It’s clear that Walmart is on the path of elevating homosexual relationships to the same level as the male-female model of marriage,” AFA president Tim Wildmon wrote in a late February 2019 message posted to AFA’s web site and emailed to potential supporters.
“We have no choice but to ask our supporters to let the company know how they, the customers, feel about Walmart’s shift away from neutrality on this controversial issue to full support for same sex relationships,” Wildmon continued. “At least with a company like Amazon, we knew they were liberal from the outset. But this seems more like a betrayal from a well-known friend. Sam Walton is probably turning over in his grave.”
Ruh roh… the AFA is wearing their angry pants.
I never thought I would say this, but… Way to go, Walmart.
