He spends his money spreading hate.

So, as an individual, you can choose to live a principled life. Where you spend your money matters. I hope more people stand by their principles and stand up for truth, justice, equality and tolerance. Stand for love, not for hate. Fight hate.
Thanks, I know where I'm eating tonight. Eatin more Chicken.

It's America. Freedom of whatever. So the dude ain't all PC. So what? it's his right to believe whatever the hell it is he believes. Evidently he's not down with the gay thing. As long as the food is good who cares.

As long as you understand that the money you spend on his chicken sandwiches goes to fund his hate based activites. A part of the money you spend goes to the hate based groups he funds. If you care about not funding hate related activites, then you should care. If you don't care, then, fine, you help support and fund his activities. It matters where you spend your money. Live a principled life. It is not all about you. It is about the society you help create by how you vote, where you spend your time and where you spend your money. If you don't care, then you don't care. That is a reflection on you.

Why is some else's opinion always referred to as "hate"?

You are the hurtful one by trying to surpress free speech. You sound like a fascist

You're dang right it matters where I spend my money, and it's all about the Chicken. You know us selfish haters, we love chicken sammiches. And at least there are no witches or vortexes in a CFA. At least I hope there aren't.

By the way, what equality are bisexuals after? Aren't they kind of double dipping in the equality salsa?

I'm not a huge fan of their food (their sauce is another story - the chicken is merely a vehicle to eat the sauce) but their exemplary service and cleanliness makes me go there. The one in PJS will be a smelly dump within 5 years.

Interesting thought. When friends and relatives come to visit they are 1) loud in restaurants, 2) amazed by how good and polite the servers are and 3) often act obnoxious with them. I know they mean well and are being friendly, but will Long Island be able to offer Southern style service.
