Typical MSM liberal spin - never thought I'd see it here in NH. Glad to see so many fols turned out to support Chick-fil-a.

Sorry - that should be ‘folks’, not ‘fols’.
It’s late.

Chick-fil-A restaurant to show their support for the chain’s president, who has taken a public stand against same-sex marriage

Could you at least try for a little accuracy?
No Mr Cathy DID NOT take a public stand against same sex marriage nor anything that I am aware of.
What he DID DO was state that his personal belief on marriage is in agreement with the Bible. As a Christian could he do any less?

That article was VERY confusing - probably because it was spinning around so fast.

The gay supporter goes to the CFA to protest and get in an argument.

The CFA owner turns out to be a sponsor for a local gay pride fest, and is donating food to the event. The CFA owner wrote: “the Chick-fil-A culture and service tradition in our restaurants is to treat every person with honor, dignity and respect — regardless of their belief, race, creed, sexual orientation or gender.”

So then the gay rights guy - who was looking for an argument, says “We’re really hoping that it shows the nation that there is no home for homophobia in America anymore,” Manseau said. “People go to Chick-fil-A to eat their hate, and now they’re all going to see that that’s not the case.”

“eat their hate”!!!??? I imagine 98% of the folks that added CFA to their “to-do list” today would agree with the CFA guy’s statement.

I wonder if the gay rights guy will still be supporting the same-sex kiss day protests?

The MSM is so screwed up that I really can’t understand why anyone reads any of their papers these days!

For the record. Someone with a protest sign can not be expelled from the “Public Green”

Supporters of same-sex marriage are organizing a counter-protest, a same-sex kiss day on Friday at Chick-fil-A locations across the country.

I'll be hitting the drive-through at CFA on Friday to give the chain financial support while gaystapo activists try to turn stomachs and congest the interiors of the restaurants without actually buying anything.

One event you won't see these goofs celebrate is “Meatless Mondays.”

The report sounds like it was written by a grade school student, like many MSM articles. Amidst the clutter however, it does show the NH spirit of freedom at work. The NH franchise owner doesn't discriminate one way or another, he just seeks to serve the public in his business, regardless of their personal interests or characteristics.

Knowing NH I wouldn't be surprised if some of those lined up for a sandwich are gay themselves, but reject the heavy handed threats of politicians against Chick-Fil-A based on the personal religious and political views of one of its owners.

They are smart enough to realize that allowing the government to bully any business based on the religious or political views of its owners is wrong.

The gays will not be happy until everyone is gay. I had a stronger word that begins with “q” and ends in “r” at the end of the sentence but not sure whether it was within bounds on FR.

I had the knee jerk response that this ought be awful. But then -I thought IF the “enemy” buys the chicken/meals or IF
the franchise owner donated meals to the “enemy” to obey the
command in the Sermon on the Mount-when Jesus of Nazareth declared “You have heard it said “You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy But I say to you Love your enemies, bless those who curse you,do good to those that hate you,and pray for those who spitefully use and persecute you(Matthew 5:43-44) I cannot pretend to know WHY the franchise owner did what
he has done. If the “enemy” goes to chick-fil-A and says we will not buy your product because we disagree with what Mr.Cathy said. And we are going to prevent others from
buying your product. It would be wrong/If the franchise
owner went out and said I do not agree with Mr.Cathy and
I am giving these meals to protest his comments. That would
also be wrong. But it would most likely hurt this single owner because the numbers suggest many,many Americans do agree with Mr.Cathy.
