All the protestors are right. We should boycott Chick-fil-A.
When I first read that COO Dan Cathy was opposed to gay marriage, I burst into tears.
Why does the president of Chick-fil-A, one of the four icons of the American food industry along with Wendy Thomas, Colonel Sanders, and Ronald McDonald, think he has the right to have an opinion? Especially considering it is such a vile one that only about half of the American population share.
Move over, chicken sandwich — Chick-fil-A has invented a new meal. It’s the hate burger, and it comes with an extra side of hate sauce.
Never mind the fact that only one major presidential candidate has ever supported gay marriage, and that one person, President Barack Obama, only took that stance recently. This is different. The Cathy family has a billion times more influence over public policy than any politician ever will.
After all, they are such prolific lobbyists of Congress. If they start influencing our legislators, the debate will be over and all hope for marriage equality will be lost. All because you devoured that delicious 12-pack nugget meal with succulent waffle fries, a large homemade lemonade and Polynesian sauce.
Who knew someone could change the world by eating just one lunch?
Their influence is extended even more by all those hateful, conservative organizations and charities they donate to. The worst is that WinShape Foundation that provides scholarships, foster homes and counseling.
Don’t let its positive impact on the community fool you; it is all part of the plan to brainwash Americans, build an army, reinstate the Crusades and eliminate all those who do not do exactly as the Bible commands.
As hard as it may be, do not be tempted to quit your boycott of the Evil Chicken Empire, particularly by one of their minions. When a sexy Chick-fil-A cashier looks you in the eye, licks his or her lips, and says, “My pleasure,” in your ear, don’t cave in and order a limited-time peach milkshake while you still can.
Remember the cause. Remember the miniscule impact you’re potentially but probably not making.
I mean, it’s true that the thousands and thousands of people employed by Chick-fil-A who may or may not agree with Cathy’s position would be out of a job if it ceased to exist.
But that’s not a big deal. After all, the economy is doing great. They’ll be back on their feet in no time.
Personally, Chick-fil-A won’t be hard for me to boycott. I’ve been changing the world by boycotting things for years; I’ll just add them to my list of products I don’t buy.
For example, I avoid items such as “Brawny” paper towels, “Angel Soft” toilet paper, “Dixie” paper products as well as numerous other name brands. These are all made by Georgia-Pacific, which is owned by Koch Industries, which is owned by the Koch family, which sometimes donates to tea-party affiliated organizations, which sometimes protest gay marriage.
In fact, I’ve given up working just so I can spend all day everyday in Kroger making sure every product I buy with my food stamps doesn’t fund a penny to something I disagree with.
Sticking it to the man, bro!
Point being, it doesn’t matter what the debate is about, whether it be gay rights, abortion, capital punishment or the best Nicholas Cage movie. Privately owned companies have no right to form their own beliefs.
Because Chick-fil-A violated the 11th Commandment, “Thou shall have no personal opinions,” they deserve to be punished.
For now on, every day is Sunday.
And the next time I’m craving chicken during breakfast, I’ll just get mine from Zaxby’s.
Oh, wait.

"I took the high road" Why? Cripes sake! And why did you indulge them with conversation? Leftist activists are the enemy. Here's what you do next time: Affirmatively raise the finger in their direction and voice the words loud enough for them to hear. Good God, no wonder we're losing. |
I just punished them by eating some of their yummy nuggets and waffle fries. MMM good!

You seriously don’t see that this is satire?
Yeah, we all should go to CFA and buy up all their chicken sandwiches and fries. Make them close early everyday. Invite all our gay friends along to help. My darling wife and I had lunch there in Niceville today to do our share. c’mon gang, eat mor chikn.
And don’t forget they made those cows parachute into a fooball stadium. Think of the terror inflicted on the poor cows, not to mention the injuries during rehearsals.
LOL, thanks!
Off to watch the Pirates game with Mrs. Smooth. Catch ya later, bro! :)
Unfortunately, the closest Chick-Fil-A to me is about 90 miles away. I sure wish they had a Bay Area location. Sacramento or Fresno is quite a trip for getting lunch. :=)
HOLY COWS!
Now I can answer Clara Peller’s question, “Where’s the beef?”
At Post #14. You want fries with them?
The local Chick Fil A (Beavercreek, OH) was jam packed with people today. I had the spicy chicken meal (large). The outside line of cars waiting on the drive thru was wrapped around the place twice. They had 3 employees in the green vests taking orders so the pickup window could get em going fast. People were parking out in the field across the road behind the place and walking in (like me). Funny thing - I got my order within 3 minutes. It was the most efficient operation I’ve ever seen. I hope the gays who attack Chick Fil A go to ...
Looks like Zaxby’s supports/follows Christian ideals
See my #18
See my #18
Yep. They are becoming Satires... instead of leftists we should call them Satires. lol
Makes me want to eat there, if it’s as good as what I’ve been
reading. We have one, I just learned, in Paramus Park in Paramus, NJ.
I’m searching for something a little better than Popeye’s ,
which I’ve come to learn, is a little heavy on the merchandising, and light on the quality.
you sir are wosre than Hitler!
Yeh . . Presently my family is not a big Chik Fil-et client but now we have to make at least 1 weekly pilgrimage to support the cows and learn how to like pro-american pro-family food!
