Nach McDonalds ist nun Hallmark an der Reihe.
Hallmark ist ein Grußkartenanbieter und hat neuerdings zur Ankurbelung des Geschäfts gay wedding cards im Angebot. Und schon hören wir die evangelikale American Family Association (AFA) keifen:
Ask them to stop promoting a lifestyle that is not only unhealthy, but is also illegal in 48 states.
Hallmark Greeting Cards has announced it will begin selling same-sex wedding cards, even though same-sex marriage is legal in only two states. The purpose, they say, is to satisfy consumer demand. It appears that their purpose is also to push same-sex marriage. Last year Hallmark began offering “coming out” cards – as in “coming out of the closet” — a euphemism for announcing homosexuality. We’ve all given or received Hallmark Cards – remember their slogan – “when you care enough to send the very best.” But promoting same-sex marriage for profit is not the very best for families or our nation.
Naja, Hallmark-Kunde werde ich wohl dennoch nicht. Selfridges in London bietet schon seit langem same sex wedding cards an; dabei bleibe ich. Aber ich überlege, ob ich der AFA einen Karton mit diesen Grußkarten schicke…
