Cracker Barrel, because they refuse to hire homosexual or at least they did until they were busted for it.

They also fired a person and listed her being GAY as the reason for her termination. There was a documentary made about it.

Re: Do You Boycott Anything?

I am not as militant as I used to be...but I do boycott a few places/people.

-Wal-Mart - for their practices
-Exxon/Mobile - the former b/c of the Exxon Valdez and the latter b/c of the price monopoly. Now they're one company - go figure LOL
-Nike - for their practices
-Proctor & Gamble & UniLever - I have become lax on these (b/c of Dove antipersperant [the only one that's gentle on my sensitive skin]) but I do not buy any of their cleaning products

-Any Roman Polanski or Woody Allen film - will not support a rapist or someone who cheats with his wife's daughter

I don't really boycot Mel Gibson or Russel Crowe, but I do not go out of my way to see any of their film's. Toss Adrian Brody in that mix too Chat Icon

You might want to try Arm & Hammer deoderant, my dermatologist recommended it to me.

Why boycott Adrian Brody? Don't know the story behind that one.

Thanks for the tip...though I think Dwight & Church tests on animals as well...I should add that I don't purchase products that test on animals (with the exception of what I added).

Adrian Brody - I thought it was disgusting the way he thought it was his right to grab Halle Berry and make out with her on national TV just b/c she was there and he won an Oscar. At the time, I thought perhaps Roman Polanski rubbed off on him and he turned me off completely.
