Hence the call for a boycott.
    They will not hire gay people.....they have fired people for being gay....not right in my book

    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.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    I couldn't have put it better myself! Well said! Now I want some 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!!!!
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    I never understood why a corporation would take any stance on religious, political, or any agenda not directly related to their business. It only causes trouble. What do the owners' beliefs have to do with some dude at a counter selling you a chicken sandwich?

    Gee, I dunno. Principles maybe? Values? Morals?

    That is agianst the law, and I have never heard of them being prosecuted for it so I am going to call BS on that unless you have a link as stated previously.
