Interesting to read about how many Chick-fil-A employees are looking for other work. It won't be long before the only people who work at Chick-fil-A are those who are anti-gay. The same goes for their customers.
How many quit or gave notice ? You have stats to provide us for your comment ?
Somehow I doubt min wage fast food workers are that worked up over gay issues, enough to quit their jobs.
This is an example of situation when a minority abuses its constitutional privileges and liberties granted by the majority. If anything, minority should respect the rights of majority and in this case it doesnt.
Disgusting.
You do know that we do not live in a democracy. Right?
The majority can not vote to deny the rights of the minority.
I will not beg at you feet to be given whatever scraps YOU think I deserve as an American citizen.

So if a majority of Americans decided that left-handed people should be denied drivers' licenses, would that make it OK?
The girl did handle it well. It looked like she most likely parroted a line that the management told her to say. She is young enough to change and more than likely will look back years from now and wonder how she could have worked at such a hateful place much like the white students at Little Rock Central High circa 1957 regretted their actions (some of them).
Boy. Sure sounds like you have her all figured out.
In most states the rules have to apply to everyone. Look up anti discrimination laws.
Roughly half of the states in the US have no protection for a refusal of service concerning homosexuality.
Frankly in my opinion, it should be that way, but not just for homosexuals, but for anyone. A private business is a private business, not that of the public to dictate conditions to.
There is no right to not be offended. Close your eyes if it bothers you so much.
What about the children, should I close their eyes two?
Only fifty years ago homosexuality was considered a psychiatric problem and was against the law.
You gained so much in fifty years, don't push your luck...

Did everyone see the massive lines of Evangelical Christians from yesterday lining up to volunteer at food banks, homeless shelters and senior citizen centers this morning?!? Ya, neither did I. That would be, you know, Christ-like.
It is a first amendment issue, there's no discrimination against gays going on at any restaurant, the man is allowed to voice his first amendment right to say what he wants without fear of retribution.
The gay community wants retribution on Chick-fil-A by doing the kiss-ins and all the negative media blitz they're putting on Mr. Cathy.
