Homosexuals have worked long and hard to achieve equality. This flap over the chicken place lets us know what they do with that equality.
The weak link for the other side when it comes to CFAs presence on campuses are the alumni.
My wife is an alumnae of a good sized, fairly Liberal, public university. That Thurs/Friday the Univ. President issued a statement saying that he and his administration were reviewing the contracts with CFA, strongly inferring that hecwas doing so with an eye to throwing them off.
The alumni discussion groups and FB pages went berserk with threats to cut off donations. By Monday the univ pres had managed to discover a little thing called the “1st Amendment” and publically backed down.
> Weve tried the soap box and the ballot box. Only one box left.
I don’t think that’s going to work this time.
All it will do is garner more sympathy for the poor, oppressed collection of Leftist pets like the Occutards, Sodomites, Moslems and all the other special interest groups under the wing of the International Left.
In fact, it might even invite “intervention” by UN troops. I don’t think we want those guys on our soil. As they have shown in other parts of the world, not only are many of them soulless torturers and killers, but they are also immune from prosecution.
CEO, Dan Cathy is guilty of having the courage to express his values. Those without values or courage hate him for it. They are acting like spoiled children demanding others change their values and accept their life style.
What “practices”? If they are discriminating in either hiring or serving anyone, that’s legally actionable. But they aren’t. The CEO just spoke his mind. This is insane.
Why would you think that?
I think that standing up to fascism is a commendable trait, and I will back Chick-fil-A 100% in this. I realize that I don't speak for all, but judging from the size of the crowd on Wednesday versus the stragglers protesting Friday, Chick-Fil-A stands with the vast majority of Americans.
Excellent victory story! I wish I could be as confident in all alumni standing up to these sorts of actions.
I went to Chick-fil-A today. It was packed. I intend to keep going as long as this “boycott” of free speech continues. I hope to see these “equality” groups go broke.
I went to Chick-fil-A today. It was packed. I intend to keep on going, because I support freedom of opinion and free speech. The gay community can call me anything they want, I really don’t care.
U.N. troops? Blue berets make good targets. Get some!
That's so recursive of you. No, no, by all means no. I sure hope not. It's every bit the right of this moron to speak his mind as it is us wishing the MSM goes out of business.
“... many of them soulless torturers and killers...”
They won’t find it as easy to walk into our homes and rape our women as they’ve been able to do in Africa, either.
Went for the first time today too. The restaurant has been in my town for ages and the wife said she didn’t like it years back so I never went. My loss. It was great. I will be going back for more.
That said, the staff was courteous and quick. There was no waiting around for hours for my food. Great place.
I have been thinking the same thing, that for some time, the left has been organizing to put together a list of "bad" corporations, that don't make the "proper" political and "charitable" contributions (i.e. kickbacks), and the first on the list are any companies or organizations with traditional values like the Boy Scouts. It's the first step towards a completely fascist economy and eventually towards collectivism.

See, I can be nice. I didn't call them bigoted fagots or
perverted freaks with pedophile natures.
Have two area malls here, both with CFAs. If they closed both in the malls people could just go across the street to the CFAs also there. Seems to me that the malls need CFA worse than CFA needs them.
thats the rub aint it ???
i dont think that theres much to be done to *private* citizens/enterprises that squeel and screech like a stuck fag...my bet is the only counter to this is to advertise their funding and support structures and ID where the commie/"hate" links really reside...
unfortunately, itll be mostly preaching to the choir, but its a start...???
every 'politician' that has so much as breathed a thought about punishing CFA should be slapped with a fed suit for deprivation of Rights, as well as a RICO suit...
Ill be holdin my breath, so somebody please check on me and feed the kats for me in a couple days...

Best bet.
