You'd think something newsworthy had actually occurred from reading the outraged responses. Here's a link to the same-sex marriage status in all 50 states, note that it's already very well known that most states are largely full of bigots:

Also, nobody cares what you saw on Facebook about it, Facebook is a gossip site with at least 83 million fake users as noted here: http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/08/02/facebook-estimates-83-million-profiles-are-fake/
I applaud people calling out the fast food bigots but the problem is much more widespread, involving their religious beliefs, education levels and automatic, propagandized robotic responses, the last of which is the same thing being displayed here en mass.
This country has become corrupt, from the bottom up. Until we first recognize that and then start holding people accountable for their crimes such as torture, criminal banking and massive propaganda efforts, we will never see the end of the hateful, criminal cult that has become a very large segment of American society.

That was for how they did the chicken, not their politics.
My, how things change almost overnight. If that senile old fart kept his mouth shut none of this would have happened. But, now that it has, it's just as well we know their bigotry and can pass them by with no regrets.
