I was at a Chik-Fil-A on West Broad in Richmond, VA. The line was out the door & the drive-thru line snaked around the parking lot. There was no media that I could see. But a really pleasant, attractive group of people, young and old, rich and poor. I said, if we lose free speech, we lose everything, and many voiced their agreement. West Richmond is so clean, ordered, polite and happy. A stark contrast to the cesspool that is Norhern Virginia.
We went to breakfast at the CFA 5 miles from us just west of Bowie MD. Outstanding chicken biscuit! 2/3 of the staff was black and as friendly and helpful as reputed. The store was immaculate. Very impressive.
I agree with your comments. One of my daughters lives there, and I love to visit.
