Old Navy: Sell Gay Pride Shirts in TN!

The Issue

Old Navy has announced that they will be carrying a line of Gay Pride t-shirts. This is a first for a major clothing manufacturer in North America and they at first said the shirts would be available in all of their retail locations.

Now though, they have decided these shirts will not be sold in Tennessee, North Carolina, or Kentucky. In light of the passing of the "Don't Say Gay" bill SB0049 in Tennessee the refusal to sell these shirts is nothing less than a company willfully turning their back on the LGBT community of a state currently at the center of a gay rights struggle.

Please sign this petition to show Old Navy that not everyone in Tennessee is backward, barefoot, and bucktoothed. The LGBT community of Tennessee has just as much pride as any other and should not be excluded from what could be a wonderful opportunity for a company to show their support for gay rights.
