    Your not tolerant of anything that isnt 100% in lockstep in agreement with your ideological theories. So un-American.

    Sadly, things are going to get worse before they get better.

    Prosperous times lead to weakness.

    I am guessing that at the corporate level, they no longer wish to be associated w/ bigoted social conservatives.
    Like Bob said, "the times they are a changing".

    I don't care if Hitler himself runs Chick-Fil-A as long as the sandwiches are good.

    I don't go to fast food joints for inspiring political commentary, I go there for cheap, tasty food. Period.

    Oh yes they are. The progressive future for public education will most assuredly include this as part of mandatory "learning".

    This is progress in our brave new world. It will last for awhile until a civilization with some balls comes around kicks our ass to the curb, kind of like the German barbarians kicked the Roman Empire to the curb.

    Give them an inch and they will take a mile. But in taking that mile they hurt charities that care for our poor.

    And they dont give a ****.

    That pisses me off.

    So irresponsible and hateful.

    I support all that and the right of people to choose not to do business at a place that doesn't support equal rights

    Supporters of the affected Charities may well to buy Chicken from other restaurants. So it has that effect as well.

    Would you believe most of their customers just want a chicken sandwich and dont even think of politics, more like what kinda drink to wash it down? The most vocal critics, were not eating there, to begin with.

    No surprise. Their bigotry was affecting their bottom line so they threw their so-called principles under the bus.

    You must not be familiar with the success of Chick Fil A


    By earning more per store than any other restaurant. A lot more. In fact, the average Chick-fil-A unit made around $4,090,900 in 2017. By contrast, the total sales for a McDonald's ($2,670,320 per unit), Starbucks ($945,270) and Subway ($416,860) is $4,032,450.

    Wait, do you really know all of the Charities they support?

    I suspect they lose customers who realize what they did.

    Lol...The richer they get, the more greedy and corrupt they become.
    They only worship their bottom line.

    But you just said their bottom line was being effected. Spouting off with no facts, is a fickle thing.

    I’d stop and wonder what he put in those sandwiches, though.
    Probably kosher meat.
