I just don't understand their logic..By threatening a company and possibly putting thousands of workers out on the street --they have accomplished their agenda???? They treat companys like there are bestowed with human emotions....They seem to care more about being homophobic than any of the problems they will cause by doing this. Suppose they put a major company out of work...this would suit their agenda only if the workers were all gay people...but they don't seem to see the big picture that they hurt 'innocent' straight people and families by doing this. What does 'Focus on the Family' really stand for? Hurting innocents? the VP's for the companies won't suffer..they just move on in their buddy system. So what is the purpose of all of these boycotts, etc????

Toyota offers the following benefits to same sex partners:
Health/Medical; Dental; Vision; Dependent health coverage; FMLA-like leave; Bereavement leave; Supplemental life insurance; Relocation assistance; Adoption assistance; Qualified joint and survivor annuity for spouse/partner; Qualified pre-retirement survivor annuity for spouse/partner; Retiree healthcare benefits; Employee discounts; Employee assistance program.
The reason that Toyota is not targeted is because it is successful and any boycott could easily be shown as a failure. Focus on the Family has chosen to target an American company and attribute its market decline to their boycott actions. Focus on the Family cares more about press releases than on people's lives, people's livelihoods, or the truth.

Purpose is to get paid.
Example, The Rainbow Coalition, run by Jesse Jackson. If you notice, anytime an issue of 'race' crops up, the Rainbow Coalition finds it in 'big' businesses that are willing to pay Jesse to just shut up and go away to avoid bad press. It's basically legal extortion and the only reason he gets away form it...the race card.
Unions, nothing more than organized crime. The suits in the unions, the one's negotiating the strike with the company? Notice when the workers are out struggling to pay their bills, put food on the table and walking the picket line for hours on end rather than working, the union suits STILL get paid, dine on lobster and drink the finest alcohol and will 'wait out' the companies.
Bottom line, any boycotts that you see, SOMEONE is getting paid big time!

I know the AFA is a complete joke. Their website is filled with nothing but hate for gay people,never mind the rape,murder,violence in society. I find this strange coming from a pro family group that don't mention the real problems in America.

I wasn't aware that this was happening. That is really messed up. It's always interesting to me to see how the people who tend to think they are morally righteous act. They tend to do and say some pretty immoral things.

AFA and "Focus on the Family" are just conservative sounding cover up names for organized hate groups! there is nothing "family" oriented about them!
