OK, I see your points about not doing business with them . But, frankly I live in the middle of nowhere and pretty much any of the mentioned franchises are at least a half hour away for me. So the chance to patronize them are few and far between anyways.

That gave me a chuckle...as the closest one on the list is still a good 20 miles from me.

I don't miss not patronizing them, except for Panera. I did like that occasional loaf of Farm Bread and the 7-grain bread.
They'll never know why they lost me as a customer, but I will.
That doesn't mean that I'm going to isolate myself and keep expanding my "boycott" list (I hate that term), but I'm already pretty well isolated unless I choose otherwise, and in my opinion, that's what it's all about anyway.
If I have a need for plasticized fast food some day, I'll enter any one of them I please, but I won't disarm and they'll never know.
I'll certainly never use my right to protect their establishment. I carry for me and for the weak that have no defenses.
Anybody desperate enough to rob a Chili's or a Sonic ain't gonna get no argument from me, unless he chooses to direct his desperation towards me.
