Google boycott too hard, admits AFA

When Google announced its Legalize Love gay rights campaign, many people in the conservative movement were not pleased. They didn't agree that a company like Google should be pushing for workplace protections for its gay and lesbian employees around the world.

Buster Wilson, general manager of the American Family Association's (AFA) radio network, told listeners that a Google boycott “is going to be a hard one for a lot of us,” and would “test the meat of our convictions.”

Yes, it will be hard, but it will prove how committed to the cause the AFA is ...

But when reports of a planned boycott came out, Wilson recanted saying no such plan ever existed. Google is just too hard to give up!

“I was speaking on my show about how horrible it is that companies like Google, like Home Depot and others, use their powerful influence in our communities to push the gay agenda upon the rest of us," he wrote. "Like, pushing for homosexual marriage. Demanding special designations and rights for them simply because of their preferred sexual lifestyles.

“I stated that It would BE TOUGH FOR SOMEONE LIKE ME TO CHOOSE TO NOT BE SUPPORTIVE OF SOMEONE LIKE GOOGLE, BECAUSE I AM SO INTERTWINED WITH GOOGLE PRODUCTS (Android phones, search engines, calendars, to do lists, youtube, google shop and on and on and on…..)"

In other words, boycotts should be easy.
