i put in 2 tours in the sand fighting for my right to free speech also, i'll bet majority of these responses are your average joe that has a problem with paying taxes but thinks the disability check is something they deserve.
as a business market mindset: chick-fl-a is there to provide the market with fast food, not opinions..period
my original statements stand as a 100% business stand point, not my own opinion but in fact just common sense when focused completely on profit.
for every person that showed up to support them one will vanish from the loyal customer pool.
he was being interviewed in a christian magazine, he was not out with a bullhorn making ridiculous comments about homos, the media blew this out of proportion. so he was not providing the fast food market with his opinion, he was answering questions asked to him by a journalist. some people just can't handle when others disagree with them, mostly liberals. nothing wrong with what he said, or the theatre in which it was in.
Hey X711, the CEO Dan Cathy was simply responding to a question in an interview. He didn't go to the networks and announce his beliefs to the nation. If you were asked a question while being interviewed would you lie or just say "no comment"? Either answer is what's wrong with this country right now. The "politically correct" crap is just that...crap and needs to stop. It's about time someone in the business world had the balls to say what he believes. Besides, Chik-Fila is a Christian company and everyone knows they are closed on Sundays for that reason. What did anyone expect him to say? All the drama and whining by the homosexual community over his comments is just showing their ignorance to the world.
Their beef is not with Chik-Fila or Dan Cathy. It's with God and His word. Sadly unless they change and give their heart to Christ they will be held accountable for their blatant disregard of what He thinks is right or wrong. I'm convinced that day is sooner than we all think.
Oh, and I didn't eat there yesterday because I was too busy working. But I did stop after work tonight :land
