I’m sure Chick-fil-A will really miss them.

I don’t know about the demographics in Toronto, but if the LGBT’s continual boycott of Chick-fil-A in the US is any indication, it won’t succeed. If anyone, it will give this outlet free publicity.

They never stop do they? They are evil and they are causing this trouble over nothing and it will not stop that restaurant from being an enormous success because the product and service are excellent.

For some years now I’ve made the general observation that the left is very much being powered by activist gays both open gays and closeted.

The fast-food chain has a long and contentious relationship with the LGBTQ community, and it has a reputation for being a homophobic institution.


Big lie repeated often enough, comes to be accepted as truth???

Chick Fil A has NOT had a contentious or problematic relationship with homosexuals or anyone else. The founder/owner of the company had the audacity to say he believes marriage is a man and a woman. But the company itself does not discriminate in any way.

What I just wrote is too nuanced for the average liberal radical type to understand. To them, oppose homosexual marriage=bigotry, end of story.

There is nothing “homophobic” about Chick Fil A. The reputation for being “homophobic” was manufactured by the left, as they sought to drive this company under over the homosexual marriage issue.

If they have this reputation among liberals, is that enough to say they have that reputation overall, when they don’t have that reputation among the general public?

Finally, where are the lawsuits? If Chick Fil A, is so “homphobic” and “bigoted”, why have they never been sued over discrimination against a homosexual????? I’m sure they looked hard to find some homosexual person somewhere, who had been discriminated against. But they never found anyone. Why is this, if this company is so guilty of rampant discrimination against the homosexual?

Sounds like Chick-fil-A will have a better class of customer.

"All are welcome here"--except when they aren't.

Rahm Emmanuel said that Chick Fil A doesn’t represent “Chicago values”.

What exactly are “Chicago values”? Rampant crime, drive by shootings, gang violence, substandard schools, the whole 9 yards?

They say all that like it’s a bad thing.

They have a history that goes back several thousands of years of doing such. As we all know.

The incoming customers will stampede their snowflake butts if they are not careful.
