Best Buy Donates $100,000 to Anti-Gay Candidate Tom Emmer

So much has been parlayed back and forth in the media regarding Target’s $150,000 donation to support anti-gay marriage Minnesota GOP candidate Tom Emmer, but not much has been said about Best Buy’s $100,000 donation to the same controversial candidate. Were you aware that there is currently an effort to boycott Best Buy along with Target? If you were not previously aware, you are now. The official “Boycott Best Buy” Facebook page can be accessed here: Boycott Best Buy Until They Cease Funding Anti-Gay Politics. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Boycott-Best-Buy-Until-They-Cease-Funding-Anti-Gay-Politics/132453820129363

Anti-gay homophobic GOP candidate Tom Emmer not only vows to veto any marriage equality bill that comes across his desk, he also has close ties to an anti-gay Christian rock band that advocates the hateful message of death to gays.

The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) has suggested referencing the following verbiage for anyone wishing to share their outrage and write to Best Buy and/or Target.
