Overwhelming Support for Chick-fil-A
FreeRepublic ^ | 08/01/2012 | Oshkalaboomboom

Posted on 08/01/2012 8:23:23 AM PDT by Oshkalaboomboom

Today is Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day, an event semi-organized by Mike Huckabee in response to the Gay Mafia's attempt to browbeat a private citizen into silence, all because he stood up for something he believed in. Mumbles Menino and Rahmbo can kiss moral America's collective butt if the response in other Chick-fil-A restaurants is even remotely similar to what I saw just a few minutes ago at our local one. The place is being overwhelmed!! I told the manager why we were here and, after thanking us, he said that there was no way he could have prepared for such a massive influx of customers. I wouldn't be at all surprised if they ran out of food today.

I drove past the one closest to me. I was going to go in I thought, until I saw the line of people snaking around the building. And the drive thru lane encircled the building - AND - there was a l-o-n-g line of cars waiting to get into the drive thru lane and or parking lot.

Because of time constraints, I couldn’t wait that long so went to another place down the street. When I drove past again on way back, the same conditions were still in play.

This is what November 6th is going to look like, except that all these people will be going to the polls before they stop by Chick-Fil-A.

I know a few gays who are going to Chick-Fil-A today. To many gays this is really about... the First Amendment.

Whose First Amendment? What does the perversion of the God established union of a man and woman have to do with the First Amendment?

Finally got food. Almost an hour wait in line, and that was starting before the lunch rush.

Sections of Miami are Liberal, arguabgly Libtard. However, I plan to take a group of friends to the Kendal area Chick-Fil-A tonight and I’ll bet the place will be packed.

I arrived at the UofM and found a spot right out front.. Then realized.. I needed quarters to pay for parking.. so I dug out 4 of them and plugged um in. it gave me credit for 3 (damn rip off) and 18 minutes..

well.. I’ll pay the parking ticket I figure.

I got in, and to a table in 8 minutes!

Sat with some nice guys who work in side the beast.. (accountant and IT.. )

On my way out I noticed a good 100 people in line.

Oh ya, even though I practically had to inhale my food.. it was fabulous as usual.

got back to the van right as my meter expired.

Compare this to occupy protests. Same concept, grass roots rising up to protest, etc etc etc.

"Occupy" had a few dozen, or maybe a few hundred, people show up in a scant handful of cities. They offered free meals, handouts, etc etc etc, and STILL couldn't get turnout, other than a handful of rabblerousers, and some moochers.

This CFA event has hundreds (thousands?) of people, showing up at hundreds of stores all across the country. And paying for the opportunity to do it.

Every so often, something happens that makes me think America ain't done in quite yet.

From the context, Mr. Cathy's First Amendment rights.

Many gays are going to Chick-fil-A today to support Mr. Cathy and CFA.

So much for MSM reports that this is a "Bible Belt Phenomenon".

Funniest thing I saw today was another fast food restaurant whose parking lot is being taken over by Chick Fil A customers.. who had about 7 employees jumbled together looking through their drive thru window at the chaos ..while they had very few customers in their building.

These photos really don't do justice to the lines. Mind you, this was at 10:30 before the so-called 'lunch rush'.

Two block long line.

Line inside. The lines extended outside well past the parking lot into neighboring stores parking areas.

Runners taking orders from cars in line to try to speed up the process. They were also giving out drinks for those waiting in line.

I'll try to get some of the traffic jams in a bit. Good thing is it is close to my office.

Sure he can have faith in “humanity” when that is rotting for it’s continued rebellion against God; I’ll have faith in Him when all else has passed away!

What a sad life..(these people have chosen to live in)!
