The National Organization for Marriage is taking its show on the road — by which I mean they intend to step up their campaign to paint some American companies as gay-friendly specifically in places where being gay is very, very dangerous:

Their international outreach is where we can have the most effect…So for example, in Qatar, in the Middle East, we’ve begun working to make sure that there’s some price to be paid for this. These are not countries that look kindly on same-sex marriage. And this is where Starbucks wants to expand, as well as India. So we have done some of this; we’ve got to do a lot more.

Make no mistake about this: they are playing with fire, and will be responsible if their hate-mongering gets a minimum-wage barista beaten or killed for wearing a Starbuck’s hat.
