For months, the American Family Association has been running a boycott against Home Depot because the company "has chosen to sponsor and participate in numerous gay pride parades and festivals."
Today, the AFA's Executive Vice President, Buddy Smith, traveled to a Home Deport board meeting to present the company with a petition bearing nearly a half-million names of those who have vowed to stop shopping at Home Deport stores until the company decides to "remain neutral in the culture war."

Standing up to those who claim moral superiority, and doing what's right? Why - that's Villainous! When next you need to shop for some Do-It-Yourself Home Improvement items, you have many choices. But really, do you? the Choice is clear: Home Depot has shown Villainous Leadership, and deserves to Rule the Home Repair Business.
