I find it strange that it’s taken this long for the mainstream to realize how anti-equality Chick-Fil-A is, especially when I feel as though we already had this massive protest just a few months ago.
Maybe it just takes that long to get from the LGBT community to the rest of society.
While I appreciate so many mayors and members of city councils asking the company to stay out of their cities, I think it’s a bit of a reach, and not a good precedent to set, splitting society like that. Besides, let them move in and see if they can make a profit, at least it will create some jobs for a little bit.
But I do have to say how awesome it is that The Muppets have pulled their support.
I haven’t eaten there in years, due to the Mormon’s influence on Prop 8, and I don’t think that will change anytime soon, although it’s been fun seeing friends on Facebook come to the same conclusion. Besides, it’s much more fun to eat local instead of at a national chain (unless it’s a shamrock shake).
All my best,
The King of Spades
