Rahm Emanuel Pledges To Ban Chick-Fil-A From Chicago
Breitbart ^

Posted on 07/26/2012 4:52:22 AM PDT by chessplayer

The unemployment rate in the city of Chicago is approximately 9.8 percent, well above the national average. Since Monday night, one 17-year-old boy has been shot and 13 others have been wounded in shootings across the city. And that’s just the most recent wave of shootings to plague the city – dozens more have been shot over the last few weeks.

And Mayor Rahm Emanuel is taking action: he’s banning Chick-Fil-A.

I’ll bet the mayor of Sodom wouldn’t have wanted Lot opening up a Chick-Fil-A in that town either.

Sometimes you just need to pack up and bug out before you get caught up in the destruction people bring upon themselves.

Why?

It's an emotional issue, and so it fits into the liberal's favored tactics. They want to bait you into doing something irrational or intemperate, and then they they'll crucify you with it.

Obama, who up until two months ago opposed gay marriage?

And you believed Him?
He has never opposed gay anything,
that was just for the rubes.

I’m reminded of the story , “The man who never was.”
about a composit charactor created by the brits to
fool the Nazis.

I call Obama, the president who never was.
a composite created to fool American voters.

Let’s see, more gang related killings in Chicago than we have in a war zone. The killings have doubled this year over last.

Just what Chicago “values” is this idiot talking about?

I think long run this is going to quietly turn voters against the left. I talked with my son who was a huge Obama supporter in 2008 and told him about the mayors banning this restaurant. He hadn’t heard about it but was pretty outraged. He likes the food and thinks they have the right to believe whatever they want.

Ok leftards, let’s play your game. There are many more cities and states with conservative mayors and governors than there are cities ruled by crazed lefty commies.

Let’s start banning all the homo-supporting businesses from those conservative cities and states, and see how things turn out for the funding of those perverted parades and the lobbying for unholy marriages. And we’ll see how those businesses crash, really quickly.

Chik-Fil-A will do fine without Boston and Sickago, how well will Homo Depot and JCP do without stores in conservative areas?

This isn't going to go away. The left won't stop until every Chick-Fil-A restaurant in the country is forced to close.

This isn't going to go away. I've read their "reasoning" and thought carefully about what they are doing, and it's a very old problem. We are facing yet another aspect of evil. Evil never goes away, it just changes how it presents itself. I will be standing up to them calmly but persistently. I will not be quiet when they allow their pathology to intrude into polite conversation or normal social situations. I will speak up, whether about how much I enjoy Chick-Fil-A food or about how important I consider real marriage in sustaining civilization. At least in my presence, I will respond calmly but firmly in a manner that makes this attack on morality a net negative for the far left.

So unlike the Democrats, Chick-Fil-A supports the Federal Defense of Marriage Act.

From the New York Daily News:

Rahm Emanuel's role as pointe man means new respect for boys & ballet

BY Joe Dziemianowicz
Monday, November 17th 2008

Belly up the barres, boys. It's a perfect time to take the leap and don those tights - or maybe that's vice versa.

With the flurry of attention for the ballet history of congressman Rahm Emanuel (President-elect Obama's pick for White House chief of staff), it's suddenly become a lot cooler to be a guy who knows his way around toeshoes, turnouts and tights.

Mr. Cathey, establish an Illinois subsidiary, name it something else, and serve the Chick-Fil-A menu. There is always a way to beat them at their own game.

How do these movements to ban CFA not run afoul of our Constitutional rights, ie, “No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed”. Also, the constitution of every State expressly forbids bills of attainder.

PS. Rhetorical question.

Rahm can actually pull this off if he so chooses.
He can see to it that every Chick-Fil-A store fails every health inspection from now until Judgement Day. That would be the Chicago Way, after all.

They support filth and want to teach children the same. They are evil.

Fascism? Without a doubt. They are America’s National Socialist Democrat Party without any doubt. Their tactics are no different. Racist, criminal, antisemites who use the same tactics that their predecessors in Germany used on Jewish merchants.
