I had 10 chick-fil A spicy sandwiches today.
Ewhen my boss came in the office with all those bags of chicken sandwiches I was like what the hell going on??? Free lunch? Cool!
..then I come here & see it was just a response from people tired of the gay movement trying to bully peoplle into supporting their beliefs. I can see why people would start to get irritated with the gay movement. I think they need a different appraoch.

Rubbish. Either that, or "healthiest fast food chain in the nation" is like being the best hockey player in Saudi Arabia. A quick comparison of nutritional impact of one meal: chicken sandwich, small fries, small diet Coke:

Establishment #1:
650 calories
30 grams fat
1,090 mg sodium
72 grams carbohydrate

Establishment #2:
740 calories
32 grams fat
1,525 mg sodium
79 grams carbohydrate

Establishment #1 = McDonalds. #2 = Chik-Fil-A. What's that about "...food is essential for life, therefore make it good" again?

^ Might be because Chick Fil A uses peanut oil which has more fat than other oils. Also their chicken pieces are larger so if you get a fried one there is more grease and oil.

Full stop. As far as the law is concerned, I think you ought to have the same right to marry the person you love as I do. That doesn't mean it's my only opinion or concern. I can have more than one!

bullying??? really???

So if I want to talk about going to the movies with my partner that is imposing my beliefs on somebody and bullying them or if I would like to gain federal benefits with a 75 dollar license versus 1000 dollar lawyer fees and mountains of paperwork that is bullying. Puh-lease.

If you don't like gay people and think its ickky then fine just say so. I can at least respect your honesty, don't try to blame others for your beliefs...own them.

Are some gay people a bit overzealous, or course, but a majority just want to live their lives in peace like everybody else and not have to see a lawyer and spend a fortune to draw up a 10 page document to will personal property to the person they spend their lives with

I have to wonder: if government had gotten out of the business of tying marriage to every government benefit and tax break, how much of an issue would people make of Gay marriage?

Honestly, next to none. I just want the same benefits and tax laws applied to me without the legal hassels and expense of working around the current law. The religious part is for the church and they can do whatever they want, I really don't care.

Quite honestly I don't think that the gay movement is bullying anyone in as much as it is the mainstream media(CNN, FOX, ABC, CNBC, CBS and their various smaller affiliates) taking a non-story and simply looping it over and over and over again ad nauseam.

Our America media truly is garbage. The "information" they provide is akin to mental junk food.

It's no small wonder why the average American is so ignorant to the ways of the world.
