The Carrier Corporation air conditioner company has decided to stop supporting the Boy Scouts of America because of the youth organization’s policy of protecting boys from homosexual leaders.

According to a Carrier spokesman, the company declined to buy or sell tickets this year for the annual Boypower Dinner of the Hiawatha Seaway Council of the Boy Scouts of America. Carrier’s decision to punish the Scouts this year will affect young boys in five upstate New York counties served by the Hiawatha Council: Onondaga, Oswego, Lewis, Jefferson and St. Lawrence.

“This is a consumer-driven company saying they prefer to support sex between men rather than American boys who promise to stay ‘morally straight,’” said Don Wildmon, president of American Family Association. “I can only assume Carrier isn’t concerned with the idea of homosexuals sharing tents with young boys.”

According to the Associated Press, Carrier was responsible for combined donations and corporate dinner ticket sales of $42,025 to the Hiawatha Boy Scouts last year.


ACTION NEEDED

Let Carrier know what you think about their abandoning the Boy Scouts of America, and instead, pandering to the whims of homosexual activists. Be sure to tell them that their corporate decision has major implications on your doing business with local Carrier dealers.
