1. Blimey, chicken killers

[flvegan]

2. I'm still at a loss at how supporting animal cruelty is okay with God.

Seriously, if you believe in Him you should get what He is about.

And that shit ain't part of it. And if you don't know why, then you're too stupid to even try to be a part of it.

3. I guess it depends on which god you follow, animal sacrifice is okay for some.

not sure what any of them feel about a chicken sandwich and waffle fries though.

[flvegan]

24. From what I see, doesn't bill well with God.

[loli phabay]

26. sorry friend im not sure what you are saying, the phrase is not familiar,

[Zax2me]

4. Um, you know the owner of Chick Fil A donates to needy children causes?

Millions, to foster care, food...housing employment job and educational assistance?
So, FAIL.
If you did eat Chick Fil A then yes, you assisted in feeding 'starving' children.

[loli phabay]

8. They also provided New Orleans residents with millions of meals for free after Katrina. n/t

[DainBramaged]

9. They're still shit on my list bub

what's in the past is done. Doesn't excuse them from fucking hatred of the Gay lifestyle, and guess what, Progressives defending them should be ashamed.

[cherokeeprogressive]

14. That's fine, bub. I bet I've been boycotting them longer than you. 51+ years.

I didn't defend them, I merely stated a fact.

All I know about this whole outrage is what the CEO said.

My gay Daughter thinks the whole thing is getting more attention than it should, seeing as how there's a general election coming up and if we don't maintain focus, the future looks pretty bleak.

You say "them", I thought this was about the CEO.

When I was just thirteen, my Dad and I were walking on New Smyrna Beach, and he asked me if I had thought about the man I would marry one day. I was surprised and told him that I hadn’t given it much thought, because, after all, I was thirteen!

He told me I should start thinking about my husband because marriage would be one of the most important decisions I would make in my life. Not long after that conversation, I began making a list.

As I matured and dated young men, that list helped me focus on what I felt were the most important characteristics of my future husband. I am thankful for my dad’s wisdom and for how that list kept me on the right path…

I became a Chick-fil-A Operator in Birmingham, Alabama after my freshman year at Samford University. I began interviewing people as they responded to our “help wanted” advertisements, and one of my interviews was with a fine looking young man. He, too, was a student at Samford, and my initial impression of him was quite positive. As he filled out his application, I leaned over his shoulder and discovered that his name was John White. I called John several days later and offered him the job. Much to my delight, he accepted and came to work for me. The more I saw of John, the more I liked him. He was a hard worker and was polite and helpful to the customers. He was a near perfect representation of my “list.”

I had one major problem, however: John was a student at Samford, surrounded by pretty girls every day and having the opportunity to date and meet more of them every weekend.

I began scheduling John to work every Friday night, because I figured that was the best way to keep an eye on him and keep him from other… distractions.

Soon, I scheduled him to work every Saturday, too. When he didn’t raise a fuss about it, it dawned on me that he must have enjoyed spending time with me, too. John finally worked up the courage to invite me to dinner. The rest, as they say, is history.

John and I will celebrate our 35th anniversary next month. Today, we still enjoy working together and are happiest when we have a task to tackle together. We make a great team! My dad was right… Marrying John truly is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

If you’re married, reflect on the circumstances that brought you and your spouse together. If you are single and desire to one day find the spouse that God has waiting for you, let me encourage you to start your own list… What characteristics do you consider most important in a future spouse?

19. not sure if you see them marrying as a issue, kinda confused with this one.

[loli phabay]

12. so is it the whole company and every franchise who the issue is with or is it just the founder

as i said im not really following the story to closely, and i dont eat there much though the wife likes their sandwiches i prefer their waffle fries.

[Safetykitten]

10. Yes, of course he does! The kind that have the "right" kind of children. The "right" kind of poor.

We just can't be giving shit away to anyone.

[DainBramaged]

11. Oh and did you know Mitt Romney donates to needy causes?

himself.

[cherokeeprogressive]

17. Good for him.

[flvegan]

25. So, animal cruelty is okay with you then?

Just checking.

[baldguy]

29. Hitler loved his dog, too.

[piratefish08]

30. hey also support the murder of gays in Uganda as well as many anti-gay measures in the US

so fuck em.

[DainBramaged]

13. I'm also beginnng to understand how some here defend these shits

they don't pass my smell test, not by a long shot.


Oh and FYI, I don't est fast food. Had tacos at Taco Bell in 2011, but that's the extent. Stuff is fucking poison and cruel to animals, and moreso if they are against human rights.


Like Chick shit on non-Christians....

[cherokeeprogressive]

16. Easy turbo. I wouldn't want YOUR hatred to cause you to pop a vein.

Deep breaths...

[DainBramaged]

18. Whatever

[cherokeeprogressive]

20. Bottom line BUB; I've never touched their food. So your pissy fit is misdirected. n/t

[DainBramaged]

Have a great weekend

[cherokeeprogressive]

22. I WILL have a great weekend, and thanks for the wish.

Since I'm not consumed by hatred or anger, my weekends are ALL hall-of-fame ones.

Thank goodness my gay Daughter doesn't think I'm a hypocrite, huh?

[DainBramaged]

23. Know what,

cya



Merry Christmas

27. Leave him alone he is/was a truck driver. You should be thanking him.

Wado progressive cherokee from the smoky mountains. Wado means thank you BTW.

28. Good post.

By the way, business at the only local Chick-Fil-A located here was back to normal on Thursday.
They had less than 1/3rd of the number of customers on Thursday than they had on Wednesday.

A friend of mine went to the restaurant yesterday and asked one of the gals that works there about it.

By the way, the reason Huckabuck asked homophobic fake Christians to go buy one of their crappy, over-priced chicken sandwiches was so he could try and overshadow the news that the national healthcare plan known as the ACA that President Obama signed into law in 2010 had the provision that allows 47 million women free preventive care kicked in on August 1st.

Today is the start of free preventive care for women courtesy of President Obama and the Democrats in Congress. It includes among other things free preventive care for moms and babies. Naturally, Republicans tried to block this portion of the Affordable Care Act from kicking in today because healthy women, moms and babies are not a conservative priority.

This portion of the Affordable Care Act, which grants preventive health care services without co-pays or additional out-of-pocket costs, impacts 47 million women. National Organization for Women President Terry O’Neill said, “No longer will women be compelled to forego or delay needed preventive care due to economic hard times.”

The real news on Wednesday is in this thread that babylonsister started.

Just thought you'd like to know that.

31. Even WITHOUT the controversy, it's still not okay, well, unless your goal is to look like Limbaugh.
