So, what's your plan if they try to build a mosque in your town? They're anti-gay, you going to go down to city hall with a picket sign in your hands and fight their zoning request etc?

Here's another one... business shut down in Chicago because of misbehavior... not because of a lack of business.

Here's the comment that accompanied the article...

If only Chick-fil-A believed in stoning gay people, genital mutilation , and "arranged marriages" like those progressive Minnesota residents from Somalia.... maybe Minnesota's left would leave them alone.

Yes, that was it. I think offense was where he donated his personal money.

CFA is the most profitable of franchises. Just like all others, once they open their doors there will be lines of cars placing their orders.

This is why we continue to get into problems with more and more "types" of conditions that are applied to protections. The list will get bigger and bigger, more and more people will demand more protected classes as by the same argument that you apply race, religion, etc... you can also claim it is discriminatory and unjust to deny anyone for ANY reason.

So, we end with no liberty or freedom. The demand to be a protected class in a free society is nothing more than discriminatory abuse of liberty.

If you want to respect individual liberty, you let the business choose as it sees fit and the customers can choose as they see fit. Any other attempt to "regulate" is just infringement hiding behind a claim of good intentions and faux concern of misunderstood rights.
Stop it.

If anyone shows up to any business expecting to be served, they should be served as long as they're behaving in a manner that's consistent with decency.

If YOU get served, I should get the exact same service. The idea that an establishment open to the public should be able to choose its own customers is absurd.

And for the life of me, I can't figure out why. The popularity of CFA is mind boggling.

The food is as bland as it gets. And the overall menu is absolutely nothing special and has no uniqueness whatsoever. The waffle fries are the only standout, and they aren't even close to being the industry's best. Carl's Junior runs circles around them on waffle fries and quality of the chicken. Even their salad with chicken is tastier.

But hey...whatever.

I do agree with you on this one DD. It's one of the last places I stop to eat. Don't see much that is that great, maybe those waffle fries.

Give me a Whataburger anyday.
