Chick-fil-A PR Honcho Dies of Heart Attack

[Lint Head]

A key member of the Chick-fil-A public relations department died of a heart attack this morning ... this in the middle of the biggest PR crisis the fast food chain has ever faced.
As Chick-fil-A came under fire for its stance against gay marriage ... Perry spoke on behalf of the restaurant chain in an effort to smooth things over with the public ... promising to "leave the policy debate over same-sex marriage to the government and political arena.”

Wonder if the Chck-fil-A supporters will blame the stress of the boycott on his heart attack.

[Confusious]

1. I'm not a supporter

But yea, I would say that might be a reason.

He probably got a lot of pressure from higher up to smooth things over.

2. The Lord struck him down to teach him a lesson of who's really in charge

[Wait Wut]

3. That sucks.

The stress may very well have added to his condition. I had my first heart attack at work. Loved, loved, loved my job, but it was incredibly stressful and I worked an avg. of 10 hours a day. My doctor told me if I didn't quit, I'd die.

My best to his friends and family. This has nothing to do with our feelings about the company.

9. Agree +1

21. Agree. My dad last year.

4. I can't be objective on this.

I am gay and find the policy of Chik-Fil-A to be abhorrent.

I had a heart attack a few months back and it sucks.

[get the red out]

5. That's very sad

But he was working for a fast food chain, maybe he ate fried chicken sandwiches and waffle fries too often?

6. God's will

[RagAss]

17. Amen.

[NightWatcher]

7. Talk about a bad week.... It appears that God was

on the side against Chick Fil hAte.

[Enrique]

8. the gay mafia did it

[Lucy Goosey]

12. I'm sure there will be people who will really believe this

Not DUers of course, but rabid anti-gay types, and anyone who thinks that Obama killed Breitbart.

10. God wanted to bring him home. They can't place blame or question His will.

[Taverner]

11. Wow....

[Bonhomme Richard]

13. I can't imagine the heat they are getting from their franchisees. n/t

[Coexist]

14. thats very sad

[Horse with no Name]

15. Well they like to say that God will sort em out in the end

I guess he is going to get sorted a little faster than the rest of them.

[AntiFascist]

16. Perhaps...too much fried food. n/t

[azurnoir]

18. Guess he might have eaten there once too often

may he RIP, but may the boycott live on

[Tom Ripley]

19. In tjhe abstract, I can't be saddened that one less PR flack walks the earth, but condolences to the

family

20. The Lord works in mysterious ways...

Actually, I'm being snide because if someone from a pro-marriage equality group died this week, the wingnuts would be blaming it on angering God.

Sucks for his family.

[HopeHoops]

22. Too much fried bullshit.
