    And I'm also fighting for freedom of speech. How does eating a sandwich at CFA, count as freedom of speech?

    I think I just heard the sound of the people that died actually fighting for freedom of speech rolling over in their graves.

    There are many ways of fighting for freedom of speech. Death is not a prerequisite.

    How does this issue have anything to do with free speech? The owner said something that some people didn't like. He's free to do so. Some people are boycotting. They're free to do so.

    I don't think you understand the issues here at all.

    I think the homosexual boycott of Chick-Fil-A is a good thing.

    I also ate there yesterday for the first time in a while.

    What I saw were lots of children running around laughing and playing while the parents had a great sandwich.

    And best of all no homosexuals hanging around acting weird.

    It was great.

    But, denying Chick-Fil-A permits to open stores in lib cities is a freedom of speech issue and an attempt by libs to censure free speech.

    what he is saying is its wrong to try and intimidate people so they are afraid to say what they think or feel. if they want to change the guys mind, send him letters explaining why you feel that way, but to boycott and try to put hiim out of business just because he spoke his mind is at minimum an attempt to curtail his free speech, because if it works, others will be afraid to speak out

    Oh, I get it you're just a garden variety bigot. You don't care about speech. Why didn't you just say so?

    You ok with them negros, though? They sure can dance!

    I'm not the one making a political issue between homosexuals and Chick-Fil-A.

    The homosexuals did that.

    And now that they mention it I like the idea of gay-free eating establishments.

    Particularly when children are involved.

    You know that pedophilia is overwhelmingly a hetero problem, right?

    Just admit you're a bigot. It'll feel good. Go on.

    Yes, because there are more heterosexual men than homosexuals.

    But if you have two gay men lurking about kissing each other or playing with their penis that tends to freak normal people out, particularly children.

    So having a place like Chick-Fil-A where homosexuals will not go is a good thing.

    Have you ever once seen such activity at a restaurant? I think you're just guilty of wishful thinking.

    Then don't go to certain parts of San Francisco or you might.

    I highly doubt it. But even if that were true, I really wouldn't care. Their penis playing has nothing to do with me.

    There is no way you're not gay. Hunting around peeping for peepees? That's not gay at all, dude.

    ...in the United States, alone among the great nations of history, there is a right way to think and a wrong way to think in everything...in the most trivial matters of everyday life.

    Maybe you wouldn't care but the typical Chick-Fil-A customer would.

    You need to come out. You sound like a conservative politician 15 minutes before he gets caught blowing a pool boy in a greyhound bathroom.

    I hang out at Chick-Fil-A which is a gay-free zone.

    The American, in other words, thinks that the sinner has no rights that any one is bound to respect, and he is prone to mistake an unsupported charge of sinning, provided it be made violently enough, for actual proof and confession.

    I can always tell when libs realize they are losing an argument because they try to silence the other side with snide remarks about latent homosexuality.

    That's usually the last arrow in their quiver.
