The American Family Assocation sponsored a boycott of [[McDonalds]] in mid 2008 for their choice to actively support gay marriage. That boycott ended on October 9th of the same year when McDonald's agreed to take a neutral position and avoid political controversies. A longer boycott against [[Ford]] ended in 2008 when the company took a neutral position on gay rights as well.
