One of the biggest companies in the world dedicated to children’s entertainment, Walt Disney, is threatening to boycott Georgia over its new pro-life law.
Just for fun this summer, why don't we all who name the Name of Jesus, stop buying anything related to the Walt Disney company, including going to a different theme park and not giving the Mouse our business? When Target decided to make a stand in favor of
trannies in the ladies room, Christians boycotted them to the tune of
a $10 billion dollar loss in company value. I would love to see us all do the same with
Walt Disney in 2019.
"I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, thatI have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:"Deuteronomy 30:19 (KJV)
When I was a kid, the
Walt Disney company held itself up as a paragon of virtue and wholesome family friendly entertainment, but such is not the case in 2019. Walt Disney for many years now has been serving alcohol at all their theme park locations,
promotes the LGBTQ+P with their annual '
gay days' in the summertime, and
tracks their guests with RFID devices that monitor their every move. Now they are making a stand for the abortionists and baby killers. 'Family friendly', is it? Hmm...
Walt Disney Threatens to Stop Filming in Georgia if New Abortion Ban Goes Into Effect
FROM LIFE NEWS: On Wednesday, Disney CEO Robert Iger told Reuters that they probably will stop filming in Georgia if its abortion ban goes into effect,
USA Today reports. The law protects unborn babies by banning abortions once their heartbeats are detectable, about six weeks. However, abortion advocacy groups plan to challenge the law in court.
“I rather doubt we will continue shooting in Georgia,” Iger said. He said he is watching “very carefully” to see how the legal battle unfolds. “I think many people who work for us will not want to work there and we will have to heed their wishes in that regard,” Iger said. “I don’t see how it’s practical for us to continue to shoot there.”
Georgia is a popular filming location for TV and movies because of its generous tax breaks. Disney recently filmed “Avengers: Endgame” and “Black Panther” there,
according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Actress Alyssa Milano has been pushing for a boycott for months, but, until this week, only a few small film and TV projects have stopped working there.
Earlier this spring, dozens of liberal celebrities,
including “Star Wars” actor Mark Hamill, said they plan boycott the state because of the heartbeat law. Milano also is urging women to go on a “sex strike” to protest.
The Living Infants Fairness and Equality Act would ban abortions on an unborn baby after their heartbeat is detectable, around six weeks. It would allow exceptions for rape, incest and threats to the mother’s life. In addition, the bill would allow parents to claim unborn babies as dependents on their taxes and include the unborn baby in census data. It also would allow mothers to collect child support for pregnancy and delivery costs from the father prior to the baby’s birth.
The ACLU said it will sue to block the law in court.
Kemp commented on the Hollywood boycotts earlier this month. “I understand that some folks don’t like this new law. I’m fine with that,” the Republican governor told the Atlanta Journal Constitution. “We’re elected to do what’s right – and standing up for precious life is always the right thing to do. We are the party of freedom and opportunity. We value and protect innocent life — even though that makes C-list celebrities squawk.”
There is more hope that the U.S. Supreme Court may consider an abortion ban, but it is difficult to say if it would for certain.
