“one of the primary goals of the homosexual rights movement is to abolish all age of consent laws and to eventually recognize pedophiles as the ‘prophets’ of a new sexual order”


I asked for a link showing Chik Fil A has funded these organizations and please show me examples of hate speech/crime these organizations have committed against gays.

People are highly sensitive wimps...many people don't agree with gay marriage. It is no reason to throw a hissy fit.

Read the first FAQ on the Exodus link. It says AIDS is God's punishment for homosexual behavior. How nice of them. That's just one example, now do your own homework.

Default Rahm Emanuel: Chicago Values Not Chick Fil A values!

Blog: Rahmbo: 'Chick-fil-a values not Chicago values'

[<H1>Rahmbo: 'Chick-fil-a values not Chicago values'


I think Mayor Emanuel is on to something here. By all accounts, Chick-fil-A is a well run, honest business.
And Chicago? Well...let's just say no one has ever used to the word "honest" to describe city government -- or anyone who does business with the city.
Sun Times:
"Chick-fil-A's values are not Chicago values. They're not respectful of our residents, our neighbors and our family members. And if you're gonna be part of the Chicago community, you should reflect Chicago values," Emanuel said Wednesday.

"What the CEO has said as it relates to gay marriage and gay couples is not what I believe, but more importantly, it's not what the people of Chicago believe. We just passed legislation as it relates to civil union and my goal and my hope ... is that we now move on recognizing gay marriage. I do not believe that the CEO's comments ... reflects who we are as a city."
Ald. Joe Moreno (1st) is using the same argument to block Chick-fil-A from opening its first free-standing restaurant in Chicago's Logan Square neighborhood.



Lets see....
Chick Fil A is an honest and clean business....and Chicago:

1. Has a 50 percent surge in homocides

2. Drug trafficking surging

3. Two Governors in Federal prison

4. Gang violence killing little black girls just sitting on the porch

5. Supports a known hate group in the NOI.....


Yep...he's right. Chick Fil A has NOTHING in common with that cesspool of a City!! Obama's city....

Read thru the thread...there is much more to it than that. He is donating money too known anti-gay hate groups. Maybe he is unaware of their nefarious agendas. They do attempt to use innocuous and wholesome sounding names, but their actions reveal insidious agendas.

Clearly the people harmed by what the company does with its money care (as do their friends and loved ones).

Do you think a black person would care if he found out the restaurant he eats at donates money each year to the KKK as well as anti-miscegenation organizations that advocate he not be allowed to marry a white women?
