McDonald's Ad Promotes Teenage Homosexuality

France, June 2, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A new McDonald's ad in
France, part of their large "come as you are" ad campaign, features a
homosexual teen speaking sweetly to his male paramour before he is
forced to closet his emotions before a presumably insensitive father.
"We see McDonald's decision to backhand hundreds of millions of
traditional family values people," Bill Johnson, President of the
American Decency Association, told LifeSiteNews, "and align themselves
with promoting the godless behavior of a few."
In the ad, a boy sitting in McDonald's receives a call from his lover
while his father orders a meal. He tells his lover that he was
thinking about him, and that he misses him, before he hangs up because
his father is coming.
After his father sits down next to him, his father tells him that it
is a shame that he is in an all-male class, because otherwise he would
be able to get all the girls.
This is not McDonald's first homosexualist activism. In 2008,
McDonald's paid $20,000 dollars to become an official "organizational
ally and corporate partner" of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of
Commerce (NGLCC).
In the same year, McDonald's also helped sponsor the San Francisco Gay
Pride Parade; Richard Ellis, vice president of communications for
McDonald's USA, was also appointed to the board of directors of the
NGLCC..

It would be exactly as stupid to claim that an ad showing a black person
flaunting their ebony skin means the company advertising is "pro-black"
and anti "KKK values". Black, Klansman, what's the difference to the
company, their money is just as green.
More likely the company is simply showing *real people* in the ad, or at
least a reasonable (and representative) facsimile thereof.
And if they didn't ever show blacks in their ads, they'd be attacked for
being racist, and rightly so.
Apparently, advertisers can't win with the rightards.
Then again, *nobody* can win with the rightards. Including the rightards
themselves, who fumble a satchel with a few trillion small unmarked
bills in Iraq here, fumble an election there ...

Uh, Disneyland's health insurance benefits cover gay partnerships.
How about you go protest Disney for "attacking traditional values"?

So we have a humorous ad illustrating how out of touch a father is

Typical religious mind f**k.

You mean "anti-women's rights lobbying". Gotta keep the women of the

How can one paragraph be stuffed with so much hypocrisy?
a) "Traditional family values people" are often immoral
cowards whose actions destroy families.
b) Aside from the name, the American Decency Association
has nothing to do with decency.
c) LifeSiteNews is itself a purveyor of familial strife,
and hatred, and death.
d) The god of "the family values people" condemns all sorts
of behaviors, nearly all of which -- including the things
most harshly forbidden -- these same people perform every
day of their lives.

Corporations will set-up in other countries, all to capture maybe an
additional 10% more market. It doesn't surprise me that they'd risk
being called morally offensive in order to capture the attention of a
group who represents, at most, 3% of the population.

I think McDonald promotes more of the above than homosexuality.
Why Christianity? Well, the link b/ obesity and Christianity is well
established.

Simple -- a rightard typed it.
Anytime you see some seemingly inexplicable, incredible hypocrisy or
pure counterfactual nonsense, you won't be wrong very often if your
first guess at an explanation is "a rightard did it".
> a) "Traditional family values people" are often immoral
> cowards whose actions destroy families.
Did you know? The type of upbringing practiced by the most religious
family-values groups is the best presently-known recipe for raising
children -- if your objective is to bring forth a bumper crop of serial
killers to loose upon an unsuspecting world. Distorting normal sexuality
and creating shame about natural body parts, normal desires, and
in-built instincts warps and distorts the mind, sometimes lethally. And
by "lethally" I do mean lethally, producing both high suicide rates and
high rates of homicidal behavior, mental illness, and other disorders
associated with severe morbidity and mortality and, frequently, violence.

Of course, much the way the People's Democratic Republic of China has
nothing to do with people, democracy, or republics. Or, come to think of
it, China, if by "China" is meant a certain proud old set of cultural
traditions that communism displaced in a particular geographical area.
This is what happens when politicians name things. If when you read an
organization name drafted by a committee or focus group overseen by
politicians you translate it using a Doublespeak<->English phrasebook (I
suggest using _Nineteen-Eighty_Four_ but _Brave_New_World_ will do in a
pinch) you will usually be on the right track.

Well, of course it is, it's associated with organized religion.
Organized religion is the mind killer.

Making a crime out of commonplace desires and impulses, such as
sexuality and file-sharing, is a well-known means to a cowed, shamed,
and browbeaten populace, and therefore to political power. Hence all
successful political systems have employed similar methods, and this
includes all successful organized religions, since organized religions
are in fact just those particular political systems that have delusions
of grandeur.
And remember! Islam is ungood; atheism, file sharing, civil liberties,
and homosexuality are doubleplusungood. You know what to do about that,
right? :)

It seems like a stupid commercial to me, but I'm not French. Why would that
ad make any sexual orientation want to eat at Mcdonalds'? It doesn't promote
the food, the low price, or the convenience. Perhaps the few French
homosexuals, who have underdeveloped taste buds, are an untapped demographic
for Mcdonald in France.

Actually what it's intended to promote is the idea that McDonalds is
the kind of restaurant that you don't need to dress up for. The
slogan is "come as you are" (because we don't care if you are wearing
blue jeans, or are gay or jest don't get teh gey, we just want your
money). Apart from that, it's just intended to give the viewer a
generally positive feeling about MacDonalds. So they show a cute
little scene and those who enjoy it will connect that feeling to the
trademark.

LOL! And by "promotes" the hate-spewing Christanic death cultists mean
they're catering to all people equally, not caring what the hate mongering
cultists think about it.
Funny how Christanics have the same ideologies as their Islamic terrorist
colleagues.

Oh please.
We're talking about France. They tried to buy America with a statue once. "Ze Americans
give mere trinkets to ze natives for huge tracts of land! Let us build ze most glorious
statue and zey shall give us ze country!"
(We had to correct their architecture. That's how callus we are.)

Ah, and the folks at the American Decency Association had no problem with promiscuity?
He'd be able to get *all* the girls?!?
