As I understand it, gays make up only 2 or 3 percent of the population.
Having that as a guide, I would much rather sell my product for a dollar to the 98 percent and have their ongoing business, than to make $300 per sale from the 2 percent by selling my morals and credibility down the sewer.
Evidently the managers of stores like Penny’s and Starbutts had this guy for their college professor.
JC Penny’s has seen the last of my money, and Starbutts coffee is awful, so I won’t miss them, heck, I won’t even go to their “going out of business” sale.
Chill-ing-Effect!
I bet they scare away ALL of their customers and force them to shut their doors.
Won't they be PROUD? ]
POST OF THE DAY!
The lure of dollars from a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender market is another likely motivator for taking certain social stands. Marketing firm Witeck-Combs estimated the LGBT market’s buying power at $800 billion last year.
If this is all about getting the LGBT to buy their products then perhaps they should take a look at the rest of their customer base who will be turned off over the LGBT pandering. Will the increased dollars from them match the dollars they will lose otherwise?
Maybe they need to look at JC Penney or Chick-fil-A for an answer to that.
Likely that could be addressed by tort.
The city of Half Moon Bay CA, screwed a developer at the behest of local environazis. He sued and won. He effectively owns the entire city now, they can't pay and have closed most departments and fired nearly all employees.
Dinner at CfA beats pledging to NPR.
Meet S. Truett Cathy, The 91-Year-Old Billionaire Behind Chick-Fil-A
Abilene is a conservative town, but I had to wait a half hour at the Chick Fillet at the mall today. It was busier than I have ever seen it. I believe someone on Facebook called for everyone to support them. and they sure did.
The local Chick-Fil-A is kinda out of my way normally. I’ll be off work next week and plan to eat there often. I’ve always liked their food and will support them with my patronage as often as possible.
Amazon.com founder and CEO Jeff Bezos and his wife, MacKenzie, announced Friday they are donating $2.5 million to the campaign to defend Washingtons same-sex marriage law.
In November Washington State voters will vote on Referendum 74 to reject a law that would legalize same-sex marriage in the state. Bezos is kicking in dollars that could be used to improve the economy so that he can steer Washington State voters to keep same-sex marriage legal.
Same-sex marriage is a Trojan Horse for something more even more insidious: The elimination of the principle of Natural Law. Natural Law is tied intimately with the idea of traditional marriage—one-man-one woman. Natural Law is also tied to our Bill of Rights and the Constitution. Natural Law is a principle that the Left hates because it is the basis of our freedom: God ordained freedom and the natural order of marriage are both inalienable.
It is time to work for a new Constitutional Amendment: Marriage is a protected union between one-man and one-woman. We need to protect America from the savages who want to take away our freedom and tear down our institutions.
Dan Vathy is under fire for taking the same position about homosexual “marriage” that Obama publically took until he changed his mind.
Obama was agin it before he was for it.
(even though we all knew he was a flaming faggot)
Penneys paid good money to advertise to the sodomites.
Chick-fil-A didnt pay a dime and are just on the peak of the wave right now.
Some folks are stupid.
Some aint.
Something you won’t hear mentioned about Chick-Fil-a during this media bashing. A few years back when there was a mad cow scare in the USA, Mr Cathy pulled the company’s “Eat more Chickin” cow commercials to not take advantage of the beef scare. He is a man of principle
By all appearances, the “wake up call” to Chick-fil-A is that “supporting traditional values makes your sales skyrocket”.
At 2:30 today, my local CFA was full of customers, and they said that they have been crowded for days now. And it is still five days before the “buy-cott” there.
I truly think that the public has been pushed too far with the nasty liberal cultural agendas, and they are fed up. Buying chicken sandwiches is just the first indicator of people telling liberals to crawl back into their hole, and take their stupid ideas with them.
That’s “Eat-Mor-Chikn.”
