It's not just that they "don't like us". It is that they are donating huge sums of $$, quarters and food for orgs that seek to destroy us and deprive us of our civil rights as Americans. I know that some of the people that I encounter probably don't like gays or my politics, but I may not like theirs either. i.e., It evens out. They are not in a position to "do me harm". CFA freely aids the kristian kooks that spend food profits to give to politicians who enforce and legislate their brand of hate on a national level. That retards progress and diminishes my civil rights. That is a call for action.

They sure do!

Looks like the majority of people bashing Chick-Fil-A have never even eaten there.

If I had a private business I would serve and NOT serve whomever I wanted even if it's not the "cool" or "PC" thing to do.

Being politically correct is destroying America

Where I do totally agree with you..but if you had a business where you were serving people (selling food or products).. why would you not serve someone? I'm not asking WHO you wouldn't serve--but rather, why would you tell a paying customer to go away? Just seems like.. not a right way to make money?

If I had a business, I would shoo away people who couldn't pay -_-

I wouldn't know. I never owned a restaurant. But I wouldn't serve people that were drunk and disorderly and people that bothered other customers.

How would that correlate to serving someone gay though? You wouldn't know unless they told you.

I didnt get the impression they were trying to screen any of their customers i think its more like a company statement that they dont as a company agree with the idea of same sex couples.I dont understand why they would take such a stance but somewhere up the ownership ladder is a big time homophobe who has the power to air his views through his company policy..

Who's trying to "destroy" you?

Do you feel that Chick-fil-A should respect gay people and their lifestyle?
