Franklin Graham is pulling bank accounts from Wells Fargo for featuring same-sex couple in ad The Charlotte Observer The Charlotte Observer

He wants you evangelicals to boycott such corporations who support LGBT. The far right social con Christian reactionaries are going to find out just how irrelevant they are truly.

You cannot be the Morality Police anymore.

Run along.

 

[Sunni Man]

Good for Franklin Graham.........

 

[NYcarbineer]

Where are all the nuts who railed against GLAAD et al for wanting a boycott of A&E over the Duck Dynasty business.

I guess boycotts are back on the RWnut menu...

 

[Porker]

Not an evangelical here. Last time I was in a church (yard) was for an easter egg hunt. But way to go Frankie Graham. I'm right there with you. Two of the same sex makes me puking sick to my stomach. Sickening.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Should even be allowed to even have choice in where they bank?

 

[The Irish Ram]

memo to libs. The future is gone. It left when you voted for the Global

 

[S.J.]

So, what did Graham do that is illegal?

Maybe not, but as long as we have the right to choose who we want anything to do with or not, anyone can take full advantage of that right whenever we choose to. It doesn't matter what the reason for it is.

God bless you always!!!

No, your side is jealously taking over that role.

Nothing wrong with boycotts. My issue is with companies and people who over-react at merely the THOUGHT of a boycott, and not the actual follow-through.

Most SJW's have the attention span of a goldfish, and weathering the initial storm should be pretty easy.

I guess it would be better if he was muslim and blew the place up.

 

[mdk]

It's his money. He can bank wherever he damn well pleases.

Banks would usually line up for those kinds of deposits. But Ken Thomas, a Miami-based independent bank consultant and economist, said the bank that receives Graham’s bank accounts will have to answer some tough questions.

“The bank that takes this account will be in a higher visibility position because you’re going to ask them, ‘What do you think of that ad?’ … And they will face some potential reputation risk.”

Banks, Thomas said, “don’t like controversy, and they don’t like reputation risk.”

Whichever bank receives these accounts will have to combat the perception that they stand counter to the ideals of Wells Fargo.

“To take your money out of one of the best-run banks in America, and for another bank to accept an account that came out of Wells Fargo, some people might ask questions like, ‘Does your bank not agree with Wells Fargo?’” Thomas said.

He is going to have a hard time finding a major national bank willing to assume the reputational risk that he brings with that account.

None of them will want to be associated with anti-LBGT bigotry.

He is probably going to have to put the funds in some mom&pop bank somewhere and they won't have the resources to handle that kind of deposit.

What a fool!

As opposed to God's?

Once again you revel in attacking the livelihood of people who disagree with you. A pox on you, and your ilk.

On the contrary. He may expose a bank with the values of a Chick-Fil-a and that would enhance their business.

I was expanding on the point made in the article which is perfectly valid.

Banks are risk averse and reputational risk is something banks take very seriously.

That you don't understand this concept is your problem.

Big business has caved to the homofascists. Those who resist will be destroyed.

That mom&pop bank will probably only have assets equal to a Chik-Fil-A too. It is highly unlikely that any well known national bank will take the reputational risk.

I understand it fine, you are a petty miserable person that wants to punish people who disagree with you. That you want people to have NO options for banking due to their political beliefs shows how terrible of a human being you really are.
