    There's a good chance folks from "the" gay movement will be sitting right next to you, also enjoying a shake and waffle fries.​

    As a LEADER of CFA, Cathy is a REPRESENTATIVE of that business. As a representative of that business, his words carry more weight than what a normal employee would have. Like it or not, that is just how it is for all businesses. Additionally, I do not think that Cathy is singular in his beliefs among the leadership of CFA. Being a family business tends to foster a leadership team that is very like-minded.

    As far as I am concerned, they can have their beliefs and make all of the statements that they want. On the other hand, when they do, they risk alienating customers and potential customers. As many have said (even long before this controversy), free speech does not mean it is free from consequences.

    and militant groups looking to suppress free speech and thought also must understand that their actions have consequences.

    I am pleased to report that I stood in line for 5 minutes to place my order. The couple in front of me were there today thanks to Huck and the woman behind me never ate at Chick Fil A before but made it a point to do so today. Enough is enough of liberalism and good Americans have had enough of groups trying to suppress freedom.

    If you are a female and want to sleep with females then bully for you. Just don't expect a gold star on your forehead because of it.

    What a tasty way to give the middle finger to liberals/statists

    You would have no problem with groups publicly organizing large scale boycotts of Jewish owned businesses?​
