So I got a big lecture about McDonalds and how I shouldn't eat there because they fund antigun groups.

First of all, is this true?

Secondly it got me thinking. If not McDonalds, what other big companies are anti-gun?

I've always understood that to some degree many big companies shell out money to groups I oppose. But I figured that to avoid spending money where that wasn't the case would be about impossible.

Am I wrong here? Do many of you actually boycott certain companies? And which ones?

McDonald's is anti-gun because they belong to PETA...

????  One of the largest purveyors of beef supports PETA?  What about all those cattle that gave their life to become a hamburger?

Ben & Jerry's? No shit?  Dammit, I really liked their ice cream.  And they're from Vermont, too.  [:(]

ROFLMA!

I just [i]assumed[/i] they are meat.  I can't remember the last time I had a McDonald's hamburger.

(Note:  assumption is the mother of all screwups!)

I heard something about Mac getting their meat imported from Australia. Supposedly kangaroo meat. They don't support our cattlemen. Anybody hear about this?

Sounds like a variation of the "KFC" Urban Legend...

How can a member of PETA server Chicken to so many people each day?  Oh, uh, I forgot......That's not Chicken!  

Mystery Meat McNuggets, anyone??
