A new Chick-Fil-A restaurant on the UTPA campus in Edinburg was greeted by protestors on the first day of classes.
Students and staff all clamored to buy meals from the new restaurant early Monday afternoon.
But a small group of protestors has stationed themselves outside restaurant.
The UTPA Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Alliance is circulating a petition to have the school close the Chick-Fil-A.
Working from behind a security fence, the group collected signatures from supporters.
Chick-Fil-A president Dan Cathy recently set off a firestorm of controversy and created a national debate about gay rights.
Cathy confirmed more than $3 million in contributions conservation and anti-gay groups such as the Family Research Council.
Chick-Fil-A, which is closed on Sundays, has always maintained itself as a Christian business.
In a previous statement, UTPA officials said the school “was surprised and disappointed by the comments made by Chick-fil-A’s president,” and that it opposes “discrimination in any form."
..and take the poll.
Homosexuals, along with Braack, are the most serious enemies of America!
I’d like to say more but I agree the pics tell the story. I’d say Chick-Fil-A is winning the battle on all fronts...;)
FReeped, my friend... and, please don’t go ballistic on those of use who still don’t trust Romney.. We all want the best for our country (and hope for Conservatives).
Sure wish CFA was publicly traded, I think their future is bright.
Hope their employees have profit sharing.

I love that non-sense sentence. You can clearly see the writer is one with the protesters. The word conservation is so seared in their mind they can’t spell conservative, or make a coherent sentence
Where is UTPA?
Right there is all you need to know. The Chick-Fil-A will stay. It makes the school money.
Hate is a heterophobe value.
Huh? I’m someone who still doesn’t trust Mitt Romney! The alternative is UNTHINKABLE though. It’s like having a choice between Hubert Humphrey and Joseph Stalin. Which would you choose? Third party, write-in, not voting, whatever is a vote for B.H. Obama. Simple as that.
except when it comes to hiring conservative instructors.

It looks to me that there may be more protest signs than there are protesters.
And who did Dan Cathy “discriminate” against? I don’t think he turns away homosexual customers or job applicants, does he? From what I understand, he took some hard-earned money out of his own pocket and gave it to groups that promote the traditional family. PERIOD.
looked at those photo’s and WOW awhat a bunch of rabid ugly smelly looking dirty lot they are.
As for BI, TRANS, homo, cross dresser what eevr these freaks call themselves, then they all need to seek mental help.
Turd poking or a woman trying to look like a guy and then having to wear a strap on is not healthy, nor is it normal but a mental sickness.
Also poking feces can also rip that thin film seperating the prostate which can put feal matter int that area which creates more diseases and lets not forget the colon is there too.
Then add that fecal matter left on a penis for just a few minutes starts causing all sorts of diseases and other ghastly sick disgusting things.
and all because a chicken burger place said normal marriage is what he views
Sodomite FAIL...as usual.
