    Wow, what have we become? Chick-A-Fil didn't make this comment. One man did. and he didn't say they wouldn't server gay people. So... what's the problem??

    Apparently you've never heard of the countless conservative boycotts that do happen.

    I have never heard about Chick-Fil-A. Now I consider to be a permanent customer over there.

    I don't live in Chicago, but if I did, I wouldn't put any money into anything from the NoI.

    I more or less agree with you, except on that last bit. Boycotts take no effort or time whatsoever.

    Grok, you've really got to learn how to handle alliances better. You have a bisexual liberal supporting Chick-fil-a against the boycott, and where I am there are others. But these ignorant, generalized attacks make us want to tell you to (*)(*)(*)(*) off.

    You've got support from the other side - don't kill it.

    This is soooooo stupid that only mindless liberals (redundant) would get upset about it. While you're out preaching "tolerance & diversity", consider that "tolerance" should also extend to other people's beliefs.

    Chick-fil-a's CEO isn't harming anyone with his personal beliefs. But you sure are with your bigotry.

    Don't need it. Besides , I made a VERY SPECIFIC attack, against a known entity.

    It's no coincidence that this is occurring on the heels of the BSA renewal of their No Gay Men Camping With Our Boys policy.

    It's part of the ongoing, absolutely cynical, attack on anyone who does not buy what the militant gay agenda is sellng.

    And, like the Boy Scouts, I feel no need to ally my self with ANYONE to express my own opinion.

    For instance, I am NOT "forming an alliance" with the Nation of Islam, which is more militantly ,and VIOLENTLY, anti- gay than anyone at Chick-fil-a, which, like myself, is NOT "anti-gay"; we just oppose REDEFINING MARRIAGE to APPEASE a BEHAVIORAL MINORITY, and oppose the instruction of our children in gay sexuality techniques in our schools.

    Hate the Sin, love the Sinner.

    How "ignorant" of me, and us.

    It's pretty amusing to watch the conservatives freak out over Chic-fila's death wish.

    If you want to run a business based on bigotry you can't expect decent Americans to patronize you.

    Chapter 11 here Chic comes!

    .. it might do the opposite: Make Chik-Fil-A more popular and profitible than it was.

    I see this argument all the time, but what Jesus says directly trumps what anyone else says.

    Don't feed the troll. It's ironic that a segment of society that embraces genocide of their progeny would talk about other people's numbers being culled. The bottom line is that the reason the liberals support abortion, have taken over education and want gay marriage is because that is the only way to keep from self-extincting their political philosophy.

    do you realize what you just did. You claimed decency for the left and we all know that is false. Leftist posters here excluded of course.

    "Decent Americans" are EXACTLY WHO DOES patronize Chick-fil-a: (in DROVES)


    "Running a company that put "glorify God" in its mission statement meant not opening Sundays. Yet the average Chick-fil-A store sold more in six days a week in 2011 than any other fast-food chain did in seven.

    Its industry leading $2.7 million per store was $300,000 more than the average McDonald's, and its $4 billion in annual sales put the Atlanta company on track to pass KFC as the nation's ninth biggest."

    Have sales increased at Chick fil A hole since the CEO used his position as a platform for his intolerance?

    I can imagine all the bible thumping sissies turning out in droves to support his hatred for God's children that he dissapproves of.

    Or more to the point, like moderate Muslims are when faced with the realization that their way of life is being taken over and controlled by the radical elements with the biggest microphones.
