Yesterday: Topic of the Day: Will Obama or Romney Win Ohio (and why)?
 
Personally, I could care less who wants to marry and take the 50-50 chance it lasts. Each his own IMO. BUT, that also applies to a personal opinion of someone. The owner of a private company is welcome to have any belief they choose. If people do not want to eat there because of it, that is their right. It is also the right of the owner to have that opinion.

Chick-Fil-A has always stood for traditional Christian values. I don't understand the uproar.

What is most bothersome here is that Chick-Fil-A is being penalized for having TRADITIONAL beliefs. What has been the norm for over 200 yrs is somehow now a bad thing?

Replying to both JD and Dennis,

Those who want us to be tolerant of their beliefs are the ones who are less tolerant of ours and others beliefs.

 

 

Every now and then we see
The tree of liberty must be refreshed
With the blood of patriots and tyrants
The time has come again
The clash of free and tyranny will soak the Earth
With the blood of patriots and tyrants

“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.”

--Thomas Jefferson, 1816.

as JD said, privately held company....if u don't like what owner stands for then boycott the product or even protest(peacefully)...one thing I like about the company is they close on sunday.....think more businesses shud do same.....but its all about the dollar..... I won't shop on thanksgiving day ....some open that day to beat black friday ....I won't go to movie on TG day or Christmas day...if more did same then people could be off and be with family, but maybe  they don't care if off or not anyway.

LOL. Now Rahm is gonna get involved? What a joke. Well, at least customers won't have to worry about getting shot in the Chick-Fil-A parking lot in Chicago.

Chik-fil-a has lost billions in sales by being closed on Sunday so I find it absurd that anyone is shocked that the founders son of a PRIVATE company says he basis his definition of marriage on the Bible.  Plus chichen minis for breakfast are the BOMB!

Rahm is a joke. He bashes them but brings on Farakhan?
