Allen added: People are standing in line 100+ deep to go inside. The lines go out and around the building. Two lines of drive through cars are around the shopping center.

Today is “National Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day.”
After intolerant and First Amendment-hating Chicago politicians blocked Chick-fil-A from building a restaurant, former Governor Mike Huckabee announced his support for the restaurant chain and its Constitutional right of free speech. He declared today Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day.

St. Louisans also came out in huge numbers to show their support for the First Amendment.
The lot was jam-packed…
(Mike took these photos in Chesterfield, Missouri.)
The line goes around the block.
The line of cars wraps all the way around to the main boulevard, where the line still continues.
The surrounding streets and parking lots are packed.
The restaurant is full and the line goes out the door.
Normally, with this crowd volume you would expect short tempers and bedlam. That’s not the case today at Chick-fil-A. While the surrounding restaurant chains are empty, the people in this line are happily making a statement, talking to each other with smiles on their faces. They’re patriots taking a stand against a gross violation of our First Amendment right. And they are doing it in 100 degree temperatures.
Any bets if this will make the MSM tonight?
If you have more photos please send them in!

Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC) bought Chick-fil-A for his office staff today.
Here’s a photo from Texas.
Ruth Wendelken sent this from Texas: This is at 11:15 at the Los Colinas Texas Chick-fil-a. Notice the line is three cars wide around the building. The line of foot traffic is huge. Notice the sign of 315 cars served at that time. Now in center line. Its a great day for Freedom of speech. Take that Boston, Chicago and San Francisco!
Was he crying? Poor Shep, he needs to retire with his boyfriend.
The Chick-fil-A in Fairfax City, Virginia, looked packed when I drove past on Route 50 about 2:30 pm today. Fairfax Circle was clogging up with traffic trying to get in. Rush hour on Rt. 50 is going to be a nightmare. Kind of surprising as this area is packed with marxist obamites.
My wife and I were going to go here in Tyler Texas but the lines at all three restaurants were so long we could not wait. We plan on going tomorrow...I know it won’t have the same impact but it’s the best we can do.
Sugar Land, Texas - SW of Houston - 11:05, it took 35 minutes just to get into the parking lot. People giving me a thumbs up for my Ted Cruz bumper sticker.
AMEN!
Way to go, xkaydet65!
Chick-Fil-A at State College, PA was slammed. There were a lot of positive conversations about the 1st amendment while standing in line.
Similar turnout at the CFLA in the Rancho Bernardo area of San Diego (northern suburb of San Diego).
Took about 45 minutes to get my to-go order. The line was longer when I left than when I got there (snaked through the inside of the store and out and around the side of the building). Parking lot was jammed with drive-through overflow. Great turn out!
Shep is a fag. After we found about about that, we couldn't stand to look at him any more. All we could do is picture a -----in his mouth. He makes my husband gag.
Today is a day of intolerance for the 98% heterosexuals in this country if anything. Until the left learns to tolerate other peoples thoughts and beliefs, there will never be any pro-human cooperation between the lucifer left and the righteous right.
Chic-Fil-A for President!
The left are the ones who are intolerant
You may be on to something. I always suspected that Shep may be a gay blade.
PS: Are you related to Sarah Baccarruda? ;-)
Probably about as much as the mass gatherings of pro lifers over the years. O could comment however that this is an instance of the private sector doing just fine.

Woot!
Great idea. Well done.
Heh. I do that. Example: “Can I get a Duh?”
WOW. Is the left-wing commie media covering this ?
According to R Limbaugh, some Wendys are sporting signs of support for CFA....
Very interesting turn of events...
He would know about intolerance.....I would call it support free speech day!!
After we found about about that, we couldn’t stand to look at him any more.

After? I couldn’t stand Schept Smith even when it wasn’t cool to not like him.
