Lulz, DeVos.
It's a free country and they can donate to anti-gay marriage group if they want, but man are they stupid. That whole organization is in the toilet and it starts at the top with the scumbag DeVos.

I'm 100% for Gay Marriage but I also think people have the right to be 100% against Gay Marriage, its a personal choice to accept it
So don't see anything wrong with this

I don't understand ... people are condemning the owners for supporting their beliefs ?
They are opposed to it, and they have the right to oppose it. Just like you have the right to support it.

We really going to start this here?
No, I don't oppose gay marriage, I'm not a bigot. The Magic are wrong for this.
However, this is not the place for this. Posters get into flame wars over LeBron VS Kobe that turn personal, how will this not turn into an apocalyptic-size argument here? Especially with all the homophobia that the mods let happen?

Seriously would you guys start putting orlando magic instead of magic. I seriously thought it was Magic johnson.
Anyway, while this is not the smartest business decsion I don't expect much backlash. Your entitled to your opinion and not everybody has to agree with everything. People need to stop being so sensitvie. This really isn't a big deal, not like their funding a holocuast or anything. I could care less who marries who but to each his/her own.

Okay, maybe I should have read the other replies before I replied...
It's not okay to oppose gay marriage. Don't let idiots just get away with it.

Douche move by DeVos but I'm guessing that most owners donate to efforts or politicians that a lot of us oppose.

This shouldn't surprise anyone.
Devos/Amway have had a very open agenda.

I wouldn't be surprised if Amare demands a trade to Orlando now.

I think people who oppose gay marriage are idiotic but they probably look at me the same way for supporting it
Who is right? Theres no "true" right answer
People are entitled to have their own opinions

Why isn't okay ? Do you know what the foundation of wedlock is ?
I support gays but marriage is touchy issue, its not black and white.

It's his view and he is entitled to that but I disagree with it. Gay/lesbian marriage will be legalized in every state before the end of this century. Book it.

Well, love would be the foundation...last I checked that isn't exclusive to heterosexuals.
And it really isn't ok because it's archaic and ignorant.
Sanctity of marriage...lol, what a joke.

The problem isn't their beliefs, but rather their attempts to deny gay people the right to marry under law. Thinking what you like is fine, as is saying what you like, even if it pisses people off. Attempting to control others' lives because of your belief in an ancient fairy tale, not fine.
