I went to the local Wendy's last night since I was going to CFA today. I was surprised to see this on the Wendy's sign: "We Stand With Chik Fil A".

Plus the last time I checked this is America-the land of the free?
No, you are ignorant. This issue with Cathy and CFA is all about...........

CFA & Cathy donating money to bigoted, discriminatory organizations/institutions who purposely target homosexuals to be discriminated against.....through law and policy. THAT is what this is all about.

This nonsense about what Cathy said is irrelevent to any thinking human being. His words are his words, I couldn't care less about what he says. Cathy and CFA WANT people like you to be singularily focused on what he said and get suckered into believing this about 'Freedom Of Speech". But it is not. It's a tactical distraction to stear the issue away from WHAT Cathy and CFA Do.

It's what he and CFA Do...that is an issue.

Do you get it, now?

Sometimes their chicken is good and sometimes not so good. Imo, their better tasting chicken is when it's a thin breast, not thick. I think that this boycott will benefit CFA in the short term, but not in the long term.

Well, you ARE in No Carolina. They probably felt that it was good for their business to promote anti-gay values.

A number of people here have said it's a bad place to eat, that the food is horrible, etc. That's slander because it's malicious and untrue.



The problem (yet again) is that profits are being used as donation money to organizations like FRC and Exodus.

I'm not familiar with FRC but I do know Exodus. With all the outpouring of hate, why not talk to people who have been helped by Exodus. After all, even gays might have to admit that some people may suffer from an identity confusion and only think they are gay (drawn in by the fun factor of sin) and really are not. Exodus is a good counseling organization and people go there voluntarily because they don't want to be gay. Why would you deny them that choice?

The boycott is not a mass call to stop people from eating there. It's a personal decision that each person makes for themselves.

It does appear ato be a "mass call" to stop people from patronizing this business.

And that is the issue at hand.

But CFA and Cathy WANT Americans/"Christians" to believe it's all about 'Freedom of Speech". They know a large majority of Americans and 'Christians" are gullible, ignorant and and always ready to hop on board with some fascist, hateful agenda; if it's framed as being "Biblically Correct". Cathy is no idiot. He knows exactly what he's doing and has known for a long time. These people who are hopping on-board with CFA and Cathy, are nothing more than your typical poorly educated, sadly ignorant, disgracefully hateful trash.

The propaganda to try and sell this issue as a question of "Freedom Of Speech" is so pathetically transparent and obvious. But only the ignorant sockpuppets are taking the bait and swallowing the hook. Anyone who truely steps back, researches this issue, checks the history of this issue with CFA and uses their brain (if they have a brain, to begin with); immediately realizes that what CFA has been doing for a long time now, is dispicable, fascist and without a doubt....UnAmerican. Cathy (and CFA) are pissing on The Constitution and betraying everything America was founded on and stands for.
And as always with these self-righteous weasels, one thing always leads to another. First it's homosexuals and women. Then, maybe it will be guys with long hair. Then, women who have tatoos (even if it's just one small tatoo) Or maybe fat people will be next. And then ......they'll find another target group who doesn't meet the 'Biblically Correct" requirements of the self-righteous, fascist bigots.

But it is WHAT PEOPLE DO that truely matters and that is what needs to be evaluated. And what Cathy and CFA have been doing for such a long time, it disgraceful and treasonous.

Wow. Look who is calling others hateful. Tolerance and clear thinking at its best, right? And people like this represent the left/gay and pro-gay contingent.

Default Chick Fil A to sponsor gay pride fest in Nashua, New Hampshire!

Chick-Fil-A To Sponsor Gay Pride Fest In Nashua, New Hampshire

Could this be true? I'm not sure that I'd want to accept their food if I were them. They'd probably use spoiled chicken and stale waffle fries to give to the gays.

I wonder if the Cathys know about this?

On a side note....

It's equally disturbing to see that so many of you eat so much of this fast-food cr@p and actually plan out your days/" dining " there.

No wonder this country has so many obese, unhealthy people.


As for Wendy's: another corporation desperately throwing their hat into the ring, as to draw more attention/publicity to themselves. The sockpuppets swallow the hook, line and sinker.

What a sad state of affairs, in this country.

The ability to think for oneself, in America, has become a thing of the past.

Nothing but partisan sockpuppets and biased religious bigots.

Oh, I'm sure I'll see every single one you sockpuppet religious bandwagoneers at church on sunday

LMAO!!!

Default Chick Fil A and boycott

What it is really about is that the Homosexuals can't stand it when someone has a different belief than them which makes the Homosexuals BIGOTS and intolerant of others beliefs which is the same thing they claim others are which then adds hypocrite to their status. Everybody see's this and it has backfired on the homosexuals.
