This just highlights a growing problem in this country with the not-so-tolerant left, in particular the gay community, that is always in everybody's faces pushing their agenda by way of intimidation, and the right has allowed the left to get away with such intimidation.
Remember CA and Prop 8? The left set up websites and published every name and address they could dig up of people who were in favor of traditional marriage. They were all "outted", their privacy violated and safety jeopardized.
Remember the businessman in Ohio who donated to a Romney PAC? That was quickly followed by intimidation from DC (I don't need to name names, do I?) that he, and anyone who does business with his company, "better look out -- we're coming for you!". He and his clients were to be blacklisted, and I just heard that this businessman, in his 60's, who has never had a problem with the IRS has been targeted for an audit. Intimidation? You bet.
How about the many companies who have failed to stand up with courage to the threats from the left and have dropped away from supporting causes on the conservative side. They gave in to intimidation.
Beginning to see the pattern? Intimidation from the left. The right has allowed it to go on. The right doesn't pull that stuff. Maybe they should use the same tactics that the left uses. It's time this whining and "you-do-as-I-say-or-else" from the left encounters some obstacles.
For government to get involved, it's so totally wrong. I'm not surprised at the mayor of Chicago or Mr. Mumbles of Boston -- that they would use such tactics, but I doubt it will stand up in court. Though who knows, we've allowed our court system to fall into shambles as well. Political correctness corrupts every corner of the fabric of society. It's time for good people to take a stand.
I hope that the right will all stand in line at their local Chick-Fil-A to show their support in the face of such irrational, downright nasty, intimidation tactics.
Ready to explain to us why anyone should support discrimination of homosexuals? Let's see how many facts you can bring to the table as evidence that you are right
Going off topic again, I see. This is not a discussion of "discrimination of homosexuals". The company in question does not discriminate. The owner simply has a difference of opinion on the meaning of traditional marriage. Why that so hard to grasp?
You think firing people because of their religion or marital status isn't illegal? Sorry, buddy, but you're out of touch with reality because both are illegal discrimination.
They have manditory pray to Jesus sessions for all employees and anyone who doesn't want to pray gets fired. These bigoted bastards need to get sued out of existence for their flagrant law breaking.
Next up, Suck-Fill-A fires a woman who the manager agrees was a great employee simply because she wasn't married but had a child. Chick-fil-A said she was fired because "she needs to be home with her child". Got that ladies? If you're a single mom then Chick-fil-A really doesn't like you and will fire you simply because you are a single mom.
Chick-fil-A is one of the worst companies ever. They just keep breaking the law over and over again.
Filed a year ago and only a court filling, no proof. Here comes the idiots out of the woodwork-----It didn't go anywhere.
Claims from the court document filed by Honeycutt’s attorney include:
“On or about June 27, 2011, Defendant Howard told Barbara Honeycutt that she was being terminated so she could be a stay home mother.”
“Howard routinely made comments to the Plaintiff suggesting that as a mother she should stay home with her children.”
Why is it ever legit for a city to stop a porn shop / strip club business from opening? Shouldn't that be between the land owner, business owner, and the free market?
I have no idea unless I see the reasoning. We had a situation here where there was a small business. A Dollar General wanted to buy the land and install a bigger building but there wouldn't have been enough room for parking to meet code. (X number of spaces per square foot).
They wanted an exception. It wasn't granted and they built elsewhere.
HE, as a person, can support or dislike whatever the hell he likes, when he throws the money he makes from his company into the pot he is not just disliking something, he is actively fighting it and that means, in this case, more than your average level of discrimination.
Chick-fil-A serves gays, they hire gays. Go ahead and boycott them and the gays will lose their jobs if they lose business.
Anyway all of this is being used to get the focus off the economy so we won't be reminded our country is going down the drain. Expect things like this to come up until the election.
This whole C-F-A thing just shows how bigoted and hateful the left is.
Rahmmie saying C-F-A doesn't fit in Chicago? Well, praise the Lord!
I haven't eaten there is quite awhile. I'm going to start going more often.
Stupid, stupid lefttards.
