Homosexual Activists Blast ‘Gay-friendly’ Wells Fargo

(Philadelphia) — Homosexual activists in Philadelphia reveal they are really bullies and haters as they attack ‘gay-friendly’ Wells Fargo simply for donating used office furniture to the Cradle of Liberty Scout Counsel.   The American Family Association of Pennsylvania (AFA of PA) has contacted Wells Fargo thanking them for the donation to the Cradle of Liberty Scout Counsel, but also asking them to reconsider their support of homosexual organizations.

“Wells Fargo is to be thanked for their donation to the Cradle of Liberty Scout Counsel which has been under attack by Philadelphia homosexual activists for years.   They pressured the city into suing the Scouts, then losing that lawsuit, they pressured the city in 2011 to not go through with their plan to sell the headquarters to the Scouts — so the situation continues, now in the Third Circuit,” commented Diane Gramley, president of the AFA of PA.

Wells Fargo is known for its support of the homosexual agenda.   Jim Baum, a spokesman for Wells Fargo’s Northeast market, acknowledges that last year the company gave more than $213.5 million to 19,000 nonprofits across the country and, of that, $2.8 million was donated to homosexual organizations.  According to Baum,  $462,000 was donated to local Boy Scouts and as Baum noted, ” For every $1 Wells Fargo or a team member donated to the Scouts, Wells Fargo and Wells Fargo team members donated $6 to organizations that serve the LGBT community.”

Additionally, Wells Fargo is a big supporter of homosexual events in Philadelphia such as the Pride Parade and Festival.  In this year’s parade, which representatives of the AFA of PA attended, Wells Fargo’s  stage coach was a prominent component.

Yet Baum’s numbers are not good enough for homosexual activists who have zero tolerance for any kind of support of the Boy Scouts who rightfully ban homosexual leaders and members.

“This attack against Wells Fargo by homosexual activists should be a warning to them and other companies which try to appease those involved in working to drag America into sexual anarchy that they will only be appeased by total dedication to them and their cause.  It is apparent that any deviation from that will not be tolerated by those pushing this agenda.  Our hope is that the eyes of the corporate leaders of Wells Fargo will be opened through this incident, ” Gramley noted.
