McDonald's COO: Gay French Ad Won't Air In U.S.

Many of you have seen the gay-positive ad that ran in France showing a young man texting calling his boyfriend before joining his Dad for lunch (above).  It was cute and uplifting - see it HERE.

But Donald Johnson, McDonald's COO (above) brought his warm Christian love to work and declared that the ad would NEVER run in the United States.  Because he is a Christian and it offends his Jeebus-loving sensibilities - which those heathen French don't have.  Or something.

Here is Johnson's statement, via Joe.My.God:

I've never shied away from the fact that I'm a Christian. I have my own personal beliefs and I don't impose those on anybody else. I've been in countries where the majority of the people in the country don't believe in a deity or they may be atheist. Or the majority of the country is Muslim. Or it may be the majority is much younger skewed. So when you look at all these differences, it's not that I'm to be the judge or the jury relative to right or wrong. Having said that, at McDonald's, there are core values we stand for and the world is getting much closer. So we have a lot of conversations. We're going to make some mistakes at times. (We talk) about things that may have an implication in one part of the world and may be the cultural norm in another part of the world. And those are things that, yes, we're going to learn from. But, you're right, that commercial won't show in the United States.

First of all, who in the plastic fork are YOU?!?  Because YOU are a "Christian", you've decided - for your entire company - that a pro-gay ad won't run in the U.S.???  And I love how Christians will always claim they're not imposing their beliefs on others - while they impose their beliefs on others.

Consider this: can you imagine if a major American company hired a devout Muslim COO from Saudi Arabia who was a follower of Sharia law?  And this COO decided that men and women weren't allowed to be in the same room at company headquarters, and women couldn't drive company cars and must keep their heads covered at all times??

And when questioned about this, the COO honestly replied:  "But I'm a good Muslim, and to do otherwise would offend me and my religion".

The right wing of this country would go completely insane.

As always, when Christians impose their backwards beliefs on others (even at major American corporations), it's fine and good and "American".  If anyone else (like the dirty French or the fancy Homersexticals) has a different idea of how people should be treated in this country, God's Gentle People scream "COMMUNISM!", get out their shotguns and head to a Tea Party rally.  Followed by devout prayer at their "church". Disgusting.

I got news for McDonald's - I am (seriously) one of your biggest customers [insert fat joke HERE].  But I don't care how badly I crave a Sausage Biscuit with Cheese (or two) - you ain't getting a thin dime of my heathen homo money until that rat bastard Donald Johnson apologizes AND runs gay-positive ads in the United States.

Don't mess with this fat biatch, I can't breath and I ain't playing ...
