So I guess I just don't pay attention to "that agenda" very closely, but I guess people are rallying against Chick-Fil-A because they don't support the pro-gay agenda. Okay, whatever. But now I'm seeing outright verbal (textual sorry, internet) attacks on the company calling them "bigots" and "mother you-know-whats". But let me put on my rationality and logic cap here for a second and ask "whatever happened to freedom?" I thought this was America. Our company doesn't outright support any cause that has two sides (we support Special Olympics, high school athletics and cancer causes) for this very reason. We support gay rights, then the religious right hates us; we refused to support gay rights then the liberal left hates us. Granted Chick-Fil-A could be more politically neutral and avoid all this hoopla, but they chose not to for one reason or another and now they're catching flak because of this? I guess freedom means 'freedom as long as you agree with their stance'? I would have thought that if someone doesn't support something they're free to do that, or is this not America anymore? Someone please Fil me in (pun intended).

I'm told that they're owned by Mormons, who follow their faith. They're closed on Saturday or Sunday- I don't remember which one- as part of their faith. If not supporting gay rights is part of their faith, good for them for following their beliefs. Those that disagree can shop/eat elsewhere, right?

I believe that the issue isn't that the owners are Christian, or closed on Sundays or even that they have publicly announced an anti-gay marriage stance. It's that the owners of Chick-Fil-A actively fund efforts to prevent legal gay marriage. Folks that are for gay marriage don't want their money to go, even second hand, to that effort. Hence the call for a boycott.

Yeah, the Liberals seem to have an issue with the whole religious freedom thing when its not convenient.
They are not supporters of gay anything because its part of their religion, plain and simple. Its also part of their 1A rights to speak their mind on the subject. If these nutrunners that oppose Chik-fil-a doing so had half a brain they would realize thier hypocrisy. Never gonna happen of course, since they only support free speech when it agrees with thier opinion.

Color me surprised that it's the liberals that are choosing this to get fired up about. They should just change their motto to "I'll respect your opinion, as long as it's parallel to mine." [Bang]

It just pisses me off that people have to let their emotions take control. For instance:
If I were to say "I believe, as my religion dictates, that the color green is evil. I refuse to support the color green." Odds are it will be a liberal that will come back and say "You're a fucking idiot, green is an awesome color." See? They didn't present a counter-argument, they didn't present any reason why green is not evil, all they did was insult me and state the most basic and unsupported opinion of the color green. WTF? It doesn't make sense.

Equality is good for business. But gay activism probably isn't unless the business is in a place like San Francisco, Key West, or Columbus. Since Chick-fil-a is from Atlanta, I'd say they don't have to worry about losing much business.

A few thoughts:



9 times out of 10 extremely disruptive children in restaurants or other public spaces have liberal parents. Thus Chick-Fil-A will be more pleasant to eat in than whatever restaurants the liberals love.
I won't have my appetite ruined by a bunch of hippies sitting at the next table with their patchuli stink wafting my way.
I won't have to worry about Chick-Fil-A bowing to pressure from their customer base to go all organic, or free range or whatever other stupid liberal food fetish that costs 3 times more than normal food.
I won't have to worry about my appetite being ruined by a couple of fat, boyish lesbians playing "grab ass" or making out in the corner.
I won't have to worry about Prius driving patrons giving me dirty looks because I drive a "gas guzzler"
The wife and I can have our usual political discussions at regular speaking volume and won't have to worry about being interrupted by some sanctimonious leftard telling me I'm wrong about global warming, gun control, economics, etc.
And finally, I don't have to worry about one of my fav fast food places going out of business because conservative Christians are plentiful and like to eat Chick-Fil-A.

works just fine!

Gay folks eat there plenty, I see it all the time. you should see the different chick-fil-a's in the airports and how busy they are.

i just like how they stick to their values and don't care what anybody says about it. My biggest issue is sundays...because I ALWAYS want a nice delicious chick-fil-a sandwich for lunch on sunday!!!!

Exactly. Back in the Army, we called this "moral courage". I disagree with their stance, but it's their value. It's their money and business, and they hold their beliefs dearly enough to risk revenue to stick to their guns. I don't admire why they do it, but you have to admire what they do.

Sexual orientation is not a protected under the equal opportunity employment act like age, race, nationality, religion, or sex. They can legally fire them all day long. Might be something on the state level but I remember this being debated in one of my hr law classes back when I was in school.

Chick fil a's are some of the few fast food restaurants that truly do not have majorly "dead times."

It is possible to go in there throughout the day and it not be busy, but when the rush hits, it is INSANE.

Why? Because they have a FANTASTIC product.

This falls in the same category as the 2A supporters who refuse to go to places of business that have a "no firearms" policy. Don't like it? Don't go there.

Liberals much such a huge stink over EVERYTHING. The majority of conservatives I know see those signs, or read those articles and either say "well, I'm not going there anymore" or "screw it, they have really good mac and cheese/clothing selection/etc., I'm still going." Rarely do they make these huge productions, twitter campaigns, or major media movements.

Liberals are such marxist babies and will not be satisfied until the world is SO diverse everyone and everything looks, talks and acts exactly the same.

Depends on the state. Some states you can fire someone solely for sexual orientation, some states you can't.

Agreed. However, liberals (true to their own bigoted, hate filled intolerant nature) are now pushing to have Chick-Fil-A run out of business by revoking their business permits and such (or not allowing them to get permits to open new ones).

The fundamental difference between left and right is that the guy on the right sees something he disagrees with and he doesn't support it, the guy on the left sees something he disagrees with and he doesn't ALLOW it.

Depends on the state. Colorado is an Employment at Will state which means exactly this:

Colorado follows the legal doctrine of "employment-at-will" which provides that in the absence of a contract to the contrary, neither an employer nor an employee is required to give notice or advance notice of termination or resignation. Additionally, neither an employer nor an employee is required to give a reason for the separation from employment. In Continental Airlines Inc. v. Keenan (1987), the Colorado Supreme Court recognized at-will employment in Colorado, and noted that there may be certain exceptions to the presumption of at-will employment.

from here: http://www.colorado.gov/cs/Satellite/CDLE-LaborLaws/CDLE/1248095305330


a lot of states are "at-will". Georgia is as well...where it all started for chick-fil-a (I have been to the original one...where they still serve burgers...yes...red meat burgers.

Employees who are not under a contract...such as a union contract can be let go for pretty much any reason including sexual orientation.

you can read that right here:


Sexual Orientation: There is currently no Federal or Georgia law prohibiting discrimination against employees based on their sexual orientation.

http://sos.georgia.gov/firststop/georgia_employers.htm

straight from the Georgia Secretary of State.

and yes, it has happened.

Personally, I like Chik-Fil-A, I admire the fact they are sticking to their guns and not letting the bullies get to them.

Is it right? well that is for them to decide, not us. Its their company, large or small they decide how to run their company. The problem here is that for some damned reason the (liberal busybody) public at large feels like they can force their will on anyone, especially if its "public".
Well piss off, thats not how it works children.
If someone came into my shop and said I had to hire or could not fire so-and-so because of whatever reason that struck my damned fancy, I would tell them to fuck off with a smile on my face while I did so. If they tried to force me to hire someone I did not want to hire, I would literally shut down at close of business.

I am going to assume that since the family BUILT the damned business with their own hard work, careful planning, and a lot of luck, they aren't going to give a flying fuck what anyone has to say, and they shouldnt. If their policies are X, then thats the way it is.
IS it fair? Thats not material or relevant.
Is it the right thing to do? Thats for them to decide.

Well said. What ever happened to the practice of not supporting things you don't like by not supporting it economically? I won't patronize companies that are openly anti-gun, but I don't expect them to change their ways because of me. If enough people go elsewhere, they'll have to decide if their policies/beliefs/whatever are important enough to stick to. But no, the socialists are not satisfied until they get their way; no one else needs to have an opinion if it differs from theirs. They'll shout you down, accuse you of anything they can think of, whatever they need to do to get what THEY want.

They released a statement recently:



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. We will continue this tradition in the over 1,600 Restaurants run by independent Owner/Operators. Going forward, our intent is to leave the policy debate over same-sex marriage to the government and political arena.

Chick-fil-A is a family-owned and family-led company serving the communities in which it operates. From the day Truett Cathy started the company, he began applying biblically-based principles to managing his business. For example, we believe that closing on Sundays, operating debt-free and devoting a percentage of our profits back to our communities are what make us a stronger company and Chick-fil-A family.

Our mission is simple: to serve great food, provide genuine hospitality and have a positive influence on all who come in contact with Chick-fil-A.

07-26-2012, 10:11
A private business is free to have whatever beliefs they choose. I have yet to hear of one instance that one of these restaurants has refused to serve a gay individual. Dan Cathy's personal beliefs are simply that, his. The man has never said anything about discriminating against anyone. Here's what he said...


But current company President Dan Cathy sparked a controversy when he confirmed in an interview with the Baptist Press earlier this month their belief that marriage should be allowed only between one man and one woman. (Cathy, also the CEO, is the son of the founder.)

"Well, guilty as charged," he said, when asked about the position. “We are very much supportive of the family — the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that.”

If you think a business should be punished because you don't agree with one man's opinion, then don't eat there. If you agree that all men have a right to believe what they choose, go eat there. In fact, Aug 1st is support Chick-Fil-A day, go have a meal.

Does anyone else see a recurring theme here? We, the wise, right leaning, and rational thinking bunch promote liberty without infringement- meaning if we disagree with a business and their policies/beliefs we simply do not give them our business. But the liberals seem to go one further, as someone stated before, that if they disagree with a business' principles, policies or beliefs they do not just refuse to give them business, they outright want them out of business, gone, stricken from the world in shame. I hate to say it, but the hypocrisy and intolerance of the left is really frightening and evil and I cannot abide by it, support it, or even debate with them anymore because of their snide and cruel ways.

I had to park in the Target parking lot and walk across the street to get in, then I had to wait about 5 minutes for a table to open up! As always, delicious food and excellent service.

Have Ann Coulter give a talk on campus and, THAT'S RIGHT THEY SHOUT HER DOWN

So, I went to the Chick-Fil-A at the corner of Powers and N Carefree in the Springs at 2:30 this afternoon (this isn't a lesser known peak time for fast food, is it?). I had to park in the Target parking lot and walk across the street to get in, then I had to wait about 5 minutes for a table to open up! As always, delicious food and excellent service. I want my kids to work at Chick-Fil-A when they get jobs, just so they learn to be courteous to others.

I'm hearing talk of cities not allowing them to build in their communities, and no one says a word. If a business tried to open up in any city, and they were pro-gay, and the city didn't allow them, every gay rights group in America would throw a bitch fit until we allowed it. It's funny how the other side gets real intolerant when they get their way.

The fundamental difference between left and right is that the guy on the right sees something he disagrees with and he doesn't support it, the guy on the left sees something he disagrees with and he doesn't ALLOW it.

If the allegations that Chik-Fil-A give money to anti-gay organizations, then Fil-A would be guilty of the same thing as the liberals. I don't know if those allegations are true, don't care either way, and certainly don't care enough to find out.

There are a few new members who joined in the last 6 months that do not seem to be happy with the way the board is run. Honestly, just questioning their intentions on joining a gun board, especially with some of the stuff i read, then reread just have me shaking my head.

The far left becomes more and more unhinged and intolerant as time goes by. My gay nephew (who does not flaunt and doesn't like to see it either) tells me that gay websites and blogs are mostly of the "gay militant" type, where they advocate "sticking it in hetero's faces" as payback for centuries and millenia of forcing shame on gays and keeping them in the closet. Those type of gays don't demand tolerance, they demand acceptance.

now the LGBT groups are calling for a kiss-in on Friday...

How do you think that will go? Couldn't the property owner ask them to leave for PDA? And if they refuse, that's trespass, right?

Could be a great revenue opportunity for cities- post officers at Chick-fil-a restaurants under the pretense of keeping the peace- when store manager asks them to leave, and they refuse- out comes the ticket book...

City attorney's could certainly plea down the charges- but still reap in the "tax on offensive whiners"

Two things she saw.

Someone asked the manager "how is your day going?" and he responded "this is way bigger than our grand opening."

Also, spotted a lesbian couple eating dinner there. They ate there, and then one of them got in line to get some more to take home. Apparently one of their friends works there and they wanted to support her. A Christian woman who noticed this couple the first time, saw her again the second time, chatted her up, and then paid for their meal.

If they can't accept that there is an opposite view to theirs then perhaps they should move out of America, someone always has a differing opinion.

It really has nothing to do with gays or gay marriage. It has everything to do with people, including mayors of major cities telling Chick fil-A that we don't agree with what you believe and will keep you out of our cities because of it. Whether they actually would try or could even do it, I do not know. But when the government tells you that you can't have a business because of your beliefs, which really has nothing to do with said business, then that government is tyrannical. That is why I went out to show my support yesterday.

Unlike coming here and voicing a minority opinion, oh boy, there's no adverse reaction to that.

Well, the difference is that you're always wrong and hugely so. ;)

Good. That guy is a Grade-A a$$hole. Why would he be such a jerk to an employee? Why does that make him feel better about himself?

Kinda ironic he was a CFO and his name is Adam Smith.

That's exactly my thoughts. Whether or not Chick Fil A supports gay marriage has no affect on their chicken. And the fact that Chick Fil A openly proclaims that they support Biblical marriage is none of the homo's damn business. That's like their rainbow stickers on their car. If the state went to them and said that they have to remove them to operate the vehicle on state highways. It's such a double standard I can't even wrap my mind around it. When push comes to shove, Chick Fil A KICKED ASS yesterday and I know where 100% of the credit is due. God has clearly blessed the organization of Chick Fil A, and if you don't believe that then you can't help but to respect Chick Fil A for sticking to their guns for what they believe in, and for not jamming it down the throats of others and trying to act as if they are "noble". I'm just relieved that nothing serious happened at one of the Chick Fil A restaurants. I thought for sure that the gays were going to break some windows or do something and somehow morph it into something decent and righteous, with plenty of help from the media no doubt. Keep up the great work Chicka Fill. [Beer]

You guys are right, this is a First Amendment issue all the way.

The problem with liberals is that they only recognize their first amendment rights and liberals try to shut down speech they don't agree with, witness the Fairness Act. The First Amendment exists to protect speech we don't like. The First Amendment is why I put up with liberal nonsense, Nazis, and all the other vile left wing scum.

I guess the gay community is going to have a "kiss-in" today, whatever the fuck that is. The gay community continues to draw negative attention to itself and then wonders why the general public treats them like shit.

Very true. Well put. I'm going to actually go out of my way (it's about 20min away from where I live) and grab some Chick-Fil-A for dinner tonight.

I get very sick of the gay community asking for us to tolerate and accept them when they turn around and spew hateful intolerance of differing views. Hypocrites! They give all gay people a bad name, I know a few gays who are not like that, and they keep to themselves like a normal person and don't jump in your face and proudly yell "I'M GAY, And there isn't a damn thing you can do about it!" [Bang]

Does anyone want to wager how much coverage the kiss-in will get in the news today? I bet the numbers of people participating will be <1% of the people who supported Chick-Fil-A on Wednesday...but I bet they get equal (if not more) coverage in the news tonight.

I agree... When I go there for dinner tonight and if I see two dudes or two chicks kissing I'm going to ask them to not do that in front of me (nicely)... Jeez, trying to eat here! [Tooth]

I'm a really tall and big guy. I think I'll just go hang out at Chick Fil A's and block anyone who is kissing. Just keep circling them, while not touching them, and see if I can get them to swing on me.

Then cry bloody murder, and sue their pants off.

Seriously? I am so sick of them acting so damn noble and look at what these pieces of shit are doing. Chick Fil A has expressed its views and not bashed on anyone. People decided with their own free will to come out and support Chick Fil A in a peaceful manner. The gays are outraged because they aren't getting all of the attention and because people are pissed about their actions, they are just supporting an organization. You know what though guys? All I can say is that God is in control. Whether you are a praying man or not there is a Higher Being in play here and He knows full well what is going on. This childish display of spray painting Chick Fil A's is a pathetic attempt to spite them.

See? That just pisses me off. They preach tolerance and acceptance, door swings both ways. WTF? I think we should just take the higher ground, as usual, and go about this whole thing respectfully, that way hopefully everyone else will see what asshats these gay radicals really are.

Well I went to Chick Fil A again today for lunch and the gays were at it already. Two females went up to the front of the line and held everyone up. They were asking all of these dumb questions about where the chicken came from and such. Then they said, "The real reason we came here is this...." and then started GOING AT IT. It was very inappropriate even if it were a guy and gal doing it. Some gay guys were filming the entire thing (Hope I can find it on YouTube) and when the chicks were done like 3 people clapped out of the 100+ that were there. I laughed and then said, "That was cute and all but get out of my way you are blocking the sweet tea machine!" Get this! The best part is that the gay guys go back to their table and sit down where they are EATING CHICK FIL A. I LOL'ed hard at that. I was like you guys are poser fags, you are even more hypocritical than I thought. Best lunch I've had in a while.
