Is Boston Mayor gay? Or has a gay relative?
Sounds like he is abusing others' constitutional rights under color of authority. That used to be a slam dunk victory in court.

Before the perverts took over.

All Chick-fil-a has to do is tell Boston that they plan to also run the restaurant as a mosque

I love Chick-Fil-A. I love it more than McDonalds. I love their chicken nuggets and waffle fries. I love Chick-Fil-A so much that even if their CEO came out in favor of gay marriage, I’d still sneak in there a few times a month. Chick Fil-A is too good to be kept out of a major city for long. Most people just aren’t that political.

I had always liked Chick-fil-A and felt compelled to eat there the other day to support them over the LGBT crowd.

Alas, my spicy chicken sandwich was barren of any condiments other than two pickle slices.
Just 2 slices of bread, a hunk of chicken and two lousy pickle slices.
In the past the sandwiches had always been decked out with nice lettuce and tomato with a nice smear of mayo.

I won’t be back.
Not because of politics or social protests, but because the meal was crappy and over priced.

I was very disappointed.

From now on it’s Wendys spicy chicken sandwich for me,or the McDodo’s spicy chicken on the dollar menu.

Chick-fil-a should open a restaurant in every city on Boston’s outskirts...

OTOH, on what legal grounds could the mayor refuse them opening in Boston. Since when does a mayor, alone, decide who is allowed to do business in town?

WAs the Mayor raised in Chicago?

Send the man a pocket full of Boston Baked Beans.Or give him a
Boston Cream Pie facial.for the next month or so. I think he
reminds me that “This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice o fht eLord their God, nor recieveth correction.Truth is perished,and cut off from their mouth.” Jeremiah7:28 As true of America today and especially those cities like Boston where they would do well to remember what Paul said when he quoted Isaiah “Except the Lord of hosts had left us a very small seed we would have become like Sodom and been made like unto Gomorrah.”

You wanna know the funny part?

Chick Fil A is ALWAYS full to capacity right here in the middle of fag-friendly Hollywood, CA 4 blocks away from me. Either the libs do not know about this or they don’t care but I wished I invested in that location close to me.

No, Boston isn’t America. It’s a little “North Korea.”
