Gold's Gym comes out as homophobic

Gold's Gym CEO Robert Rowling probably hoped his $2 million dollar homophobic donation would go unnoticed.

Way to alienate your customers Moron.

Boycott these motherfuckers. They won't listent to reason, so make 'em pay.

Gold's Gym is facing a backlash from LGBT activists over its CEO's $2 million donation to American Crossroads, the conservative political group affiliated with former Bush adviser Karl Rove, and its four franchises in the San Francisco Bay Area are now leaving the brand over the controversy.

On Monday, Don Dickerson, the director of operations for Gold's Gym Bay Area, distributed a message through its Facebook page saying that it will be leaving the Gold's Gym brand


Best bullshit:

Gold's Gym is a non-political organization and our member's dues are not used to fund political candidates. Bob Rowling, the CEO of our ownership group, TRT Holdings, made a private donation completely independent from (and not on behalf of) Gold's Gym.

So many business to boycott...Target, Gold's Gym...the list grows apace.
