Rockstar Energy Drink
 
Rockstar Energy Drinks Assault on LGBT Rights and Autism
Yeah, I won't be drinking Rockstar any time soon.
F*ck Michael Savage.

Quote:

A few facts about Rockstar Energy Drink. It was co-founded by conservative radio host Michael Savage. It's current CEO is Russell Weiner, Michael Savage's son and a co-founder of the "Paul Revere Society" here in the States.
A few facts about Michael Savage. Better yet, here are a few comments directly from the mouth of Michael Savage:Disgusting, right? Michael Savage is reaping profits from the selling of Rockstar Energy Drink.
How about some facts about Savage's son, Russell Weiner?
  • Fact #1: At a Rockstar-sponsored concert at Concord Pavillion in 2004, Russell Weiner warmed up the crowd by chanting "Who's heterosexual and proud? If you're not, hopefully you will be soon."
  • Fact #2: Russell Weiner co-founded the conservative Paul Revere Society (with his father). In 2006, the organization had its tax-exempt status revoked.
  • Fact #3: Among the positions championed by the Paul Revere Society, and presumably by Russell Weiner? (1) Support for traditional marriage only; (2) deportation of all illegal immigrants; (3) eliminating bilingual education in all states; (4) requiring health tests for all foreign born people; (5) ending affirmative action; (6) closing off the borders; and (7) make tax cuts permanent and end class action lawsuits.
Russell Weiner, as CEO of Rockstar, makes a boatload of money off the beverage.
Do you like your money going to a family that champions hate? Do you want your money going to a man who says that autism is a made up disease? To a man who says that all LGBT people are sodomites who deserve to get AIDS?
If the answer is no, then don't buy Rockstar Energy Drink. And if you see a club - especially an LGBT club - serving it, please say something to the management.
If you want more information, check out http://www.thetruthaboutrockstar.com. The site isn't updated terribly frequently, but it has some basic information about the sordid story of the family that makes millions off of Rockstar Energy Drink.

Wow. This needs to be passed on. Thank you for posting it.

I will continue not drinking it--or any of its competitors. The whole lot of them seem to play to hopped up yahoos.

The small, mean part of me wants a few people to get ill- not dangerously so, but just enough to warrant a lawsuit that will wipe these mofos out monetarily. What pigs.

Alex 04-11-2009 11:37 PM

I thought this was general knowledge.

But pretty much irrelevant to me since I've never in my life consumed an energy drink beyond the generally recognized long-standing soda labels (never even consumed a cup of coffee).

I was unaware that Michael Savage was somehow involved with this. (Not on the net as much as some of you are)

You can definitely count on me to boycott this brand. Savage is certified Nut-Case!

I did not know.

I'm sickened, because I have found Rockstar to keep me awake better than Red Bull in the past, when making the drive south. I think I have one can in my refrigerator right now, waiting for my next long drive. Ugh.

Michael Savage is someone I have long despised. Hate is a strong word for me, but I have truly hated that man for years. He is a despicable pig. The sound of his voice, so smug and arrogant, spewing his vitriolic crap -- makes my skin crawl.

I had no idea. I'll be pulling these off the shelves in my store tomorrow.

Gemini Cricket 04-12-2009 02:39 AM

I never drank the stuff myself. And I never will.
Considering how vile Savage is towards the LGBT community, it makes me wonder if he has any pink skeletons in his closet...

I wish I never had. I feel as if I drank poison, like my mom's cat.

I loathed Michael Savage before. I didn't think I could abhor him more, but I was wrong. He is such a poor excuse for a human being.
