Good call by Brunette. Agencies, regardless of how their employees feel, should never make public statements about their opinions on morality and politics, especially if they may be controversial.

What DStone said. Never mix those things publicly. You'll look silly.

Even if you pick the more popular side, you'll still look silly.

Use vague terms if anything. "We support stand-up people with good characters, courteous attitudes, and admirable behaviors."

That'll do.

Yeah, or just don't say anything on it at all, because nobody was expecting you to anyway.

Relatedly, a friend posted a picture of a hilarious sign out front of what looks like a coffee shop. It says in chalk...

"If you don't like gay marriage, blame straight people. They're the ones who keep having all the gay babies!" lol.

Especially dumb by the agency considering nobody asked for their opinion.

It seems almost anytime anything controversial happens in and around hockey, Sean Avery is somehow linked.
