I will keep an eye on corporations and other entities that help to fund anti equality and hate groups and I will not spend my money with them. That is something tangible that I can do.
I wholeheartedly agree - and I've been doing exactly that for more than 20 years. I have boycotted Dominos, Walmart, Cracker Barrel, and a slew of other companies for as long as I can remember. ChikFilA has been on that list for a couple of years.

Anyone can spend their money however they see fit, including the people associated with ChikFilA, but I'll be damned if one penny of MY money is going to support their bullshit agenda.
