On the way home, I decided at the last minute to vote with my pocketbook and stop by Chick-Fil-A for dinner. When I got to the drive up, cars were wrapped around the building on all four sides. When I left, there were still cars on all four sides. The boy at the window said it had been that way for most of the day. As I drove home, I saw 1 car at a Wendys, 2 cars at Inn and Out and noone at McDonald's. The owner of Chick-Fil-A should send a check to the ones promoting the boycott as I have never seen its business so amazing.

Avoiding a daily sodium injection from Chick-Fil-A because you disagree with discriminatory practices it advances is basically tattooing a swastika on your arm.

You need to be a little more consistent. Last I checked we were Liberal Communist Anti-Mormons, no?

Talentless kitschy writer eats fast food chicken and feels that act alone some how was a stand for virtue.

Not Scott Lloyd, though. Now that he knows that Chik-Fil-A's head honcho embraces discriminatory attitudes, Lloyd has pledged to patronize the restaurant even more frequently:
Of course Doctor Scratch doesn't discriminate between anything at all whereas Chik-Fil-A is merely discriminating between good and evil, right and wrong.

A few weeks ago we were on our way to a family thing, along the way there was a billboard announcing a new Chik fil a and I was thinking the same as you. I wouldn't eat there, I just wouldn't want to say "let's go to Chik fil a" then my husband pipes up and says "what a stupid name". Like you I've never seen one, though I guess they recently built one about 20 minutes from my house.

It's a pun. I would have thought you would like a restaurant that uses a clever literary device in its name.

Doctor Scratch wrote:Perhaps others have heard the news, but the head of the fast-food Chik-Fil-A has been the object of criticism after he declared that he opposes same-sex marriage.
And he has the right to do so. Now of course, people will refuse to go there because of his stance but these people do not believe in freedom of expression. Sad commentary on american culture and the way people attempt to limit freedom of expression.
The thought police are out in full force in america.
