I need some facts,as I am coming across some information I wasn’t aware of before,and,as a member of FR for over 10 years now, I know where to come to for commonsense truth. I have heard that Mr.Cathy gives money to “hate groups” that target gays,and the group Exodus International came up. If anyone has any factual links,info,etc. on this information, I would LOVE to bitch-slap some people who are making incorrect statements.I think if there were any truth to that,the lamestreams wouldv’e come out with it quickly to try and make Mr Cathy and his company look bad.

It's a good article that makes some good points.

However this wasn't just about protesting agasint the gays.

No people don't care about gays that much. It was real America rising up to fight for freeedom of speech ,for freedom and to rise up against the leftists/democrats.this was real America rising up , the only way they could against the liberals/democrats/socialists that control the media and the country and that have been destroying America and our freedom . People have had enough

This attack in not on MR. Cathy because of his stand supporting traditional marriage. This is nothing but an attack on Christianity. Rahm stood on the same podium with Farakhan the same day he lambasted Chick Fil Lay. And Louis has had some strong words against gay marriage.

” Not a bad idea ... at least women could probably safely assume the men were not homosexual.”

We love women, and chicken sandwiches!!

Some bleephole on the Boston herald web-site posted yesterday that Chick-Fil-A gives money to the Westboro crowd. I went to an Equality web-site that listed who Chick-Fil-A donates to, WBC was not among them. Just a smear.

They do give to Exodus International (it seems like it was a relatively small amount when you consider the 35 million they’ve given to charity) EI is often mocked as “pray the gay away” You can look up their web site to see who they really are. Several years ago in Uganda there was a movement to add the death penalty for the offense of homosexual rape, as it was already in place for hetero sexual rape, seems like there was something about HIV as well. ONE of the board members of Exodus International was in support of this law.

Exodus International as a whole, disagreed with this policy and asked for it to be changed to a lifetime jail sentence.

Basically Exodus International believes that while people may in fact be gay, they do not have to act on that. Most of their staff has been involved in homosexuality before coming to have a religious faith.

So, to the gay activist anything besides open acceptance of all things in their life equates with hate.

The other thing to know is the Southern Poverty Law Center is who many people count on to know about hate groups. However the SPLC has a very specific agenda in their lack of tolerance in calling other groups hate groups.

These so-called “hate” groups are essentially deprogrammers of the cult of homosexuality, which needs a social framework to perpetuate itself, since being contrary to natural law it would be expected to disappear.

“However the SPLC has a very specific agenda in their lack of tolerance in calling other groups hate groups.”

And who made THEM the authority on “hate groups”??? Shouldn’t they stick to defending the rights of poor people in Southern courts?;)

The pleasant dining experience we had at CFA was nothing like the "hate" agit-prop preached by Boston Mayor Menino. It certainly wasn't dancing Mayor Rahm's "The Chicago Way"....

MAYOR RAHM COUNSELS CHICK-FIL-A "It's easy to do business in Chicago when you know 'the rules,' " said Chicago Mayor Rahm. "Chick-Fil-A can open as long as it adopts 'Chicago Values.' "

(1) weekly cash pay off to the alderman;

(2) hire six of the alderman's friends who work only random days of the month,

(3) BIG AL from the Mayor's office picks up all cash donations at CFA's back door,

(4) Chick Fil A staff needs to shoot 10-12 customers per month,

(5) Any CFA customers actually killed must be registered to vote as Democrats,

(6) $100,00 campaign contribution to Obama,

(7) free food to Jesse Jackson, Jr, now "convalescing" b/c he screwed up buying Obama's Senate seat.
