Chick-fil-A No Longer Anti-Gay
I'm still anti Chick-fil-A. They are on my permanent shit list. Kiss my $50-$100 a year good bye Chick-fil-A. Sep 19 12 06:26 pm Link In other news, all inmates everywhere apologize for being bad, and pinky-swear not to do crime anymore. We'll have to see the walk to back up that talk. Sep 19 12 06:58 pm Link And yet in the Muslim world homosexuals are killed. Who speaks for them? Sep 19 12 09:13 pm Link Digital Photo PLUS wrote: I know they hate that.

You can hide the fact that you are gay, you can't hide the fact that you are a woman. Sep 20 12 07:01 pm Link And I still wont eat there - their food is SO damn nasty and I friggen don't understand how people could like their food. Bleh!!!! Sep 20 12 07:09 pm Link Well, what do you know: http://www.advocate.com/business/2012/0 … lity-group Sep 21 12 02:31 am Link I like the food, but, like other chains, I find that some locations are better than others. I always knew they were a "christian" owned company, even before the scandal, since they are not open on Sunday. What kind of retail store can survive by voluntarily closing a day a week? I always found that odd, and, from a business point of view, somewhat impressive. They must do pretty well the other six days. The anti-gay thing was disappointing. That said, I'm sure the owners of other private companies have personal beliefs that I would also find repulsive. I just haven't learned about them yet because their owners were not stupid enough to make them public. The controversy, as near as I can tell, was always about corporate profits of this privately owned company being donated to anti-gay rights causes, and not about a culture of discrimination in the stores or the corporate HQ. So, this announcement would seem to end the problem. Let's hope it is true. I'd call that a victory. Of course, more are still needed. Sep 21 12 04:26 am Link Still won't be spending a dime there... Sep 21 12 06:46 am Link Turns out it was a fairytale. http://www.wnd.com/2012/09/gay-advocate … fairytale/ Mainstream media organizations have headlined over the last two days Chick-fil-A’s “change” they claim means the company suddenly is promising not to discriminate against homosexuals – and that it would stop giving money to those organizations that promote traditional marriage. But it appears the facts are that the company’s anti-discrimination policy remains just as it was months ago – before the controversy over owner Dan Cathy’s Christian beliefs erupted – and its donations appear to have had no new directive applied. Here it's straight from the horses mouth. http://michael-in-norfolk.blogspot.com/ … olicy.html I have to wonder about the intolerance and bigotry that causes someone(some organization) to lie about what someone else is doing? "Anti-gay"? Bigoted propaganda? How about "anti-Christian" or "anti-semite" for descriptors of liberal organizations? At least the latter two would be accurate. But's it's nice that all the pro-bullies have put themself on display.

But, that doesn't mean the individuals who run the corporation can't contribute millions to the very same causes that started this uproar. Just look at Domino's Pizza. The corporation itself doesn't contribute a thing to pro-life organizations, but its founder gives MILLIONS to anti abortion campaigns from his own pocket.
