Chik-Fil-A is one of, if not THE best fast food joint out there. The employees are ALWAYS over polite to an almost annoying degree. The service is always quick, and I have NEVER had my order screwed up. The food ain't too bad either.

At least one person around here got offended because they told him to "have a blessed day."

Their response? Coupon for a free sandwich and sincere apology.

They know customer service, which most fast foot places, with employees who can barely speak English, are rude and don't care, don't.
My daughter was upset that she didn't get a toy the other night (Jim Henson company pulled their muppet toys)...then she noticed she got a free ice cream instead and was happier.

He said he supports the Biblical definition of marriage. But that's not news, everyone knows that Chik-Fil-A is a Christian run business...ever go there on Sunday? They're closed. But that's not news, so in order to make it news and cause controvery and divert attention away from the real problems we face, it was spun as anti-gay marriage.

Is anyone really surprised that the LibFukTards would jump all over this in order to, again, deflect the news of the day?

Ever think it is the liberal media spinning this to us in order to distract us from the real political issues that are happening right now?

Anywho - this is why it's a big deal in the news today:
snopes.com: Chick-fil-A and Same-Sex Marriage

There are lots of reasons. Lying to customers about the puppet things is just what sparked it.

OMG - someone that does not think the same as you!!!!

Clearly the leaders of that company should imprisoned for not being liberal.



Be careful with what you read in media - even Snopes can be bought you know. Plus, how do you know that the "girl" defending Chick-Fil-A was not some libretard taking a stab?

Clearly everything in the internet must be true???

I agree, keeping it a two party system is one of the major issues of this country, but as long as they control the money, they also control the power.

The problem is that here are many definitions and meanings, both explicit and implicit, of the word "marriage." It means different things in different cultures and/or religions, regardless of what it looks like to outsiders. In some it means the joining of two equals. In others it means the joining of a whole bunch. I still others it means transfer of ownership of the female from one master to another. In some it is a sanctification for the purpose or intent of procreation to foster the continued existence and growth of a particular religion.

I agree with the statement that government should get out of the business of marriage, totally. Marriage, as an institution, should be left to the respective religions. IMHO, current marriage laws in the United States are a violation of the Constitutional concept of separation of church and state.

That said, I believe that there should be a contractual method available for the establishment of civil, legal partnerships between any one person and any one other person that is totally separate from any religious partnership.

I don't care what a guy that makes chicken sandwiches thinks about things other than chicken sandwiches. Nor do I care who or what people claim to be married to, it doesn't affect me.

If it came up for a vote here, it wouldn't be worth my time.

I disagree with his statement and will not be going there anymore (I only go there when we travel to visit family in Virginia/SC where they have them). He's free to have his opinions, but I'm also free to not go there. I won't make a big deal out of it, I'll just find another place to eat and when I get a craving, I'll just make my own.

As far as Boston and Chicago go, I disagree with the mayors trying to block the stores from getting into the cities. If the people have a big enough "beef" with them, then don't eat there.
