Chick-fil-A Day

[getsome]

Remember to stop in for a Chick-fil-A sandwich today to support our 1st amendment right to have an opinion other than what the left coast libs say we must have...Hats off to company president Dan Cathy for having the stones to stand up for what he believes in and supports...:cheer2:

Now is the time to tell the likes of Rahm Emanuel and company to stuff a chicken foot where the sun don't shine and that conservative Americans still have free speach rights and will be voting come November!!!

[Chief Joseph]

Wish I had one in my region. I'd make it a regular stop for us.

This will be the 3rd day in a row I have eaten there. They said their stock order this week was gigantic! Good for them!

[Longitude Zero]

I generaly hit them at least once a week. This week twice and counting, in fact I just got home from there drive thru. Hooray for a GREAT AMERICAN company!!!

[jocko]

we don't have any aorund the Terre Haute, area. wish they did, I would go there and let them know they have alot of support.

It is amazing how some mask their hate, bigotry, and fear by calling it "defending the 1st amendment." I have the right to never give them a penny of m money ever again!

My local C-F-A was swamped. I'd planned to eat there but they are too busy! Good to see the crowd.

There has to be a story behind all this. Never heard of Chic-Fil-a day or any story related to them.

Someone want to share the story?

Chik-Fil-a is a very Christian fast food corporation. Closed Sundays, the whole works.
Their President Dan Cathy son of the founder made a statement recently supporting traditional marriage as opposed to gay marriage. Many big city mayors are now rattling the cage and proposing they be kept from expanding into these large cities. NYC, Boston, Chicago. there is a "Buycott" movement not patronizing them.

So there's a movement afoot for people who support Chik Fil A's right to free speech to support them.

This all got started after the founder of Chick-Fil-A, Dan Cathy, made comments about gay marriage.

Funny how these same liberal parameciums will give their cash on a daily basis to Muslim-owned gas stations... many of which send portions of their profits back to the middle east funding groups that hate us all. You know what the Koran says should be done to gays? It ain't pretty. But this is Christian bashing is trendy.

Markis82 you do indeed have the right not to spend your money there and I'm quite sure the Chick-fil-a company will do just fine without your business, thank you very much...What this is about is one mans right to stand up and publicly state what his beliefs and morals are without being condemned and punished by government officials wishing to deny Dan Cathy's company a business license simply because the said Government official doesn't agree with Mr Cathy's conservative beliefs plain and simple....

Amen to this right here. I hate going to the gas station. Don't matter who owns the station, the money still goes to the same place.

I'm all for making the middle east the 43rd state, wait, let me check with the prez and see how many states we got now.

Years ago this counrty decided that discrimination based on race or religion was not only wrong but illegal. I'm sure some of your parents and grandparents were against that. Sexual orientation is no different. People should not be treated any different because of it. One who speaks out against it should be looked at just the same as one who spouts racist speech. There is a separation between church and state. Just because you or your religion believes something does not mean it is law or any better than anyone else. You resepect the right for Chick-Fil-A to say what they want but at the same time don't not want to give the right for a person to marry who they want. You stand by rights as long as you agree with the subject. If you disagree, you reject their rights. I'm so glad I'm not held captive by hycritical negativity as you all are.

Been there for breakfast and lunch today...and plan on being there for dinner! Interesting, there are very large crowds but I didn't hear even one complaint about the wait and everyone was very courteous and upbeat. Very encouraging to see the support for a solid American company with traditional values!

I think what needs to be said has been said and I see no need for further discussion here.

I'll leave open for viewing but will close to further comments.

Have a pleasant today and a better tomorrow.
