Chick-fil-A was started by a nice Christian couple in Georgia and later became a national chain in shopping centers. The chain treats its employees well and for a long time was closed on Sundays so they could go to church or be with their families. Its food has always been good and one of the more healthy type of fast food chicken. They support family and that’s how they indirectly gave some support to the so-called anti homosexual marriage group the militant gays are now attacking the company about.

The militant gays are making a statement to all companies, don’t even think about not supporting the homosexual, cross dressing, gender bender, anti-straight marriage, we want sex with kids agenda or we will crush you.

Not just another sandwich. Try it as a club sandwich----w/ bacon, cheese, and lettuce and tomato.

====================================

Chick-Fil-A / Esquire Magazine's pick for best sandwich

You can get a chicken sandwich anywhere, which may explain your low expectations. But down south, there lives an eye-opener. A come-to-Jesus sandwich. The Chick-fil-A.

Seasoned, breaded breast served on a toasted buttered bun with dill-pickles. No mayo. No sauce at all. Deceptively simple, yet transcendent.

The hook is the breading: spicy, with an intoxicating crunch. The meat is always juicy, never chewy. The bun is like lingerie -- there, but not, providing delicious support without obscuring the main flavor.

The first bite changes everything you think you know about chicken. And about the need for condiments. -- by Allison Glock

And don't forget to get a large order of their crispy waffle fries with your club sandwich. You'll love that bacon patty.

In the Cary area of Raleigh/Durham, the Chic-filA’s hire mostly kids from Mormon families. They are smart, fast, speak clearly, well dressed and work extremely hard. Going through their drive-in windows is a treat....well, almost. I am not a Mormon but I can attest that they raise pretty amazing kids!

There’s definitely a difference in staff regarding Chic-fil-a versus Mickie D’s/BK/Hardees/etc. Much better class of employee at CFA.

Although, I do have to give props to our nearby BOJ...they’re always fast too, and a good place to eat after church on Sundays.

It has been brought up several times in FR that targeted boycotts rarely work. Most loss of business from a targeting group is more than made up by counter targeting groups.

Arizona is a good example. After our idiot representative, grijalva, advocated boycotting Arizona over SB 1070, tourism business was never impacted and may have improved.

Another example of the left’s dedication to diversity!

Left = Fascist.

“If you’re eating Chick-fil-A, you’re eating anti-gay,” one headline read.

Works for me!

It’s OK—it was worth repeating.

Seems like that 2% of the population has a tantrum every day now.

We need a graphic of the
Chik-fil-A cow holding a sign that says “Gay chickens taste funny”.
