In reply to the discussion: Gay marriage supporters file Chick-Fil-A appeal [View all]liberallibral
(272 posts)I totally agree. Gay marriage should obviously be legal, EVERYWHERE! But people also have a right to their opinion... If folks don't like the opinion of the higher-ups at Chik-Fil-A, then simply don't buy their product - but I haven't heard of any "discriminatory practices" by Chik-Fil-A as of yet. If they discriminate against gay, then we have a completely different issue and they should be banned, everywhere - but I support a citizens right to hold a different opinion than mine. Even if it's wrong!
Heck, I know several right-wing nutballs (actually, I unfortunately know much more than several) that won't buy Ben and Jerry's ice cream because of their 'far left views'. But they're not stupid enough (at least not yet) to suggest we ban that oh-so delicious ice cream.....
Banning something because of somebody's opinion would be a slippery slope to a dangerous nation. Especially if the bible-toting crazies on the right become in charge... I'm only for banning the companies that DISCRIMINATE!
