Chick-Fil-A Sandwiches Become Political Symbol

Whoa there tiger, the reason you can't yell FIRE is a crowded theater to so people don't get trampled to death, that is in no way, shape, or form related to a bunch of overly emotional deviants 'feeling offended' because someone expressed an opinion.

Sorry, all I'm getting from the rest is blah, blah, blah...

 

Excellent. We've outsmarted conservatives again on another civil rights issue.

 

What gets me is Rhambone says "Chick-fil-A values are not Chicago values", yet Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakkan is re opening his restaurant in Chicago and not a peep out of Emanual. The CEO of Chick-Fil-A is openly Christian and is against gay marriage, he's demonized. Louis Farrakkan is openly Islamic and supports his religion, a religion where 7 Islamic countries put gays to death for being gay and no one says a word. Where's the protests at The Salaam Restaurant? The hypocrisy is breath taking.

 

You sure do call folks bigot alot. Can you not discuss anything rationally? Nothing the man said was bigoted. Just because he doesn't agree with, doesn't make him a bigot.

 

Yeah, just like Denny's did.

 

I didn't know chicken sandwiches were a civil rights issue. And congrats on outsmarting dead poultry! Your a genius by all accounts!

 

......

So...I gather you are for marriage exclusively between one man and one woman...you do realize that you are denying gays the right to marry based on your own clouded, undemocratic beliefs, don't you?

 

Expressing an opinion isn't infringing on the legal rights of others.

Dan Cathy could have said "all the Jews deserved the Holocaust", and it would still be legal. It would be a really stupid thing to do, and he'd probably be ousted from his company, but the statement itself is perfectly legal.

 

I am still waiting to hear your take on EVERY state that has brought up not allowing gay marriage that passed the amendment in their states, including California.

Are all those people bigots?

 

Since when was marriage a right? Is there an Amendment that covers that specifically? You know, you could actually go do the work and create and pass an Amendment and we wouldn't need courts to decide anything, we can solve the problem ourselves. That would be the right way to go about this. Step up, do it the right way, and nobody will be able to argue with your position...

 

......

What is it about HuffPost that makes your head explode? They are merely a media outlet for many newspapers, magazines etc. You mistakenly feel antagonistic toward HuffPost for articles from many other sources. Wassup wid dat?

 

So you like democracy when it rules in your favor but not when it doesn't.

And that's what makes a conservative hypocrite.

Bottomline, the old rightwing bigots that want to spread homophobia are losing and will be extinct in 10 years. Civil rights and justice marches on. Chicfilay goes bankrupt, just like conservative ideology.

 

Facts hurt the heads of conservatives.

 

An occasional post here and there? nothing, I'll check it out.

However when one person posts 5-6-7 or more links in the same day...ALL from huffPo, it makes me think this person either only reads one site for news..or worse, is affiliated with said site and is being paid to spread the links around to garner hits.

In either case, it makes me take said poster with a grain of salt.

 

I asked you a question.

Are all of these people bigots that voted to now allow gay marriage?

This has nothing to do with gays. It is simply about the owner of this company believing that the tradition of marriage is between 1 man and 1 woman.

Do you believe three, four or five people should be able to marry each other?

 

LOL...that was pretty funny coming from you. Gave you a thumbs up for the effort. Head of Empty.

 

.....

I think it is a combination of things...bigotry is one. Fear of the unknown is another, ignorance is yet another, excessive brainwashing by religious institutions is another, and fear that their own inclinations toward gayness or lesbianism is another.

 

Hey it's Mr. Prosecutor!

I answered your stupid question and showed why it was stupid. Shall I go into more detail about why conservatives don't like democracy or do you just want to stipulate to it?

 

Eating chicken sandwiches doesn't deny anybody anything. As for the "clouded, undemocratic" beliefs statement, the beliefs are clear, not cloudy at all. And as for democratic, why don't we vote on it then? I'll be voting with my dollars for Free Speech.

 

Fear of the unknown? We aren't talking about aliens invading or the afterlife here.

Do you believe 3,4,5,6 people should be able to marry each other?

 

No you didn't.

do you believe 3, 4 or 5 people should be able to marry each other?

 

You're for telling people what they can or cannot say if they want to open a business and somehow that is democratic...hmmm.

 

Hey, it's Mr. Prosecutor doing his best to avoid discussing Chic-fil-a's bigotry. It isn't working.

 

What bigotry? What did he say that was bigoted? How about you provide us with that Einstein? You run around trolling threads by calling everything bigoted but you offer nothing for a discussion.

 

Well, this certainly IS an issue about rights and the Constitution. The loudmouth left is trying to deny first Amendment rights to anyone who disagrees with their social engineering. Boycott away, that's your right, but put a sock in all this "unlawful, unconstitutional" talk. The only one advocating unlawful, unconstitutional action is the gay wrongs activists looking to silence all opposition.
