Gay rights activists to hold kiss protests at Chick-fil-A restaurants
cnn ^ | 8/2/2012 | staff

Gay rights activists are planning to hold on Friday a "national same-sex kiss day at Chick-fil-A," the restaurant chain whose president's opposition to same-sex marriage sparked a media frenzy.

"Let's show Chick-fil-A thanks for their support of Love, Equality, and the Real Definition of Marriage!" organizers posted on their Facebook page.

Same-sex couples are expected to arrive at restaurants across the country and kiss in protest, then post video or photos of the event on social media.

But on Wednesday, throngs of others weighed in on the Chick-fil-A debate, buying chicken sandwiches at stores to show their support of the chain.

Any FReepers who live conveniently near a Chick-fil-A should go over during one of the major meal times and take some pictures. Then we can post them compared to the Appreciation Day pictures and show the world how insignificant these people actually are.

The media will show up, take tight close in video’s of the two or three couples that show up and make it out to be a big protest.

This should go over about as well as the infamous Adam Smith (CFO @ Vante in case you don’t know) video.

LOL! I saw that one earlier, and I'm curious.

Has the jockstrap that was so brave as to bully a barely-grown girl from the safety of his car reared his nasty head, or is he still in hiding?

What if they came, and nobody cared? They are trying to be obnoxious to get a rise out of Christians. If straights were to cause a scene by kissing and making out I would expect management to ask them to leave. It shouldn’t make any difference if they are gay or straight, if they are behaving disrespectfully, it shouldn’t be allowed to continue. I say, ignore them, don’t give them the attitude they are trying to draw out of you so they can put it on youtube and say “see how hateful these rightwing dingbat Christains are??” This would be a good time to go to Chick-fil-A and order a meal and just turn away from anything that might be offensive. Pray, pray, pray.

After Lot offered to let the men of Sodom rape his virgin daughters “who had not known men”.

Lot was a disgusting coward.

So they are having a kiss in.Do they plan on buying something while they are there, or just impede those who want to?

I really need new glasses.

I read: Gay rights activists to hold kiss protests at Chick-fil-A restaurants.

According to the constitution these creeps have the right to kiss anywhere they want. But an owner of a private business still has the right to ask them to leave and to not serve them.

A funny thing for Chic F Lay to do would be to close and post signs saying “Due to the record setting day we had yesterday, and in appreciation of the hard work done by our employees, we are allowing them the day off. If you want to stand in front of the closed store and kiss, go ahead.”

The American public needs a good look at these people. I hope they turn out by the tens of thousands, and media coverage goes nation wide. If this turns out to be anything like CSPANs coverage of the first gay pride parade in DC, it will be a total disaster for the "cause." Kiss on, Butch...

There must be a way for us to infiltrate their sanctuaries and mess up things they enjoy...after all, this is what they want to do to the people at Chick-Fil-A.

Like doing some heavy hetero making out at gay bars Friday night?

Uh, let’s hope they just limit it to kissing.

Given the tiny fragment of the population they are, it will be a major challenge just to get ONE “couple” into each restaurant.

I will be dining at Chick-fil-A tomorrow, once again.

My guess is that I won’t see any “same -sex kissing”.

On the date, CFA should announce all profits are going to Focus on the Family.

Nahhhh, the funny thing to do, as I mentioned in another thread, is to show up with judges scoring flip cards and rate the kisses. On technique and personal appearance.
