He probably doesn't know.. he's only been a media reporter for 12 years and never heard of wiki before...

Chicken is easy to cook.
It's easy to stay out of other peoples lives.
Please drive through.

that doesnt look to bad ;_))

It's been meme-ified already, but the day people are lining up to do charity as an expression of their Christianity instead of to support an anti-gay chicken restaurant, then we'll talk.

I really can not figure out why people must assume that just because someone supports the traditional definition of marriage that they must automatically hate gays. Perhaps someone can explain how they go hand in hand.

Oh snap, you think he purposefully omitted information to present bias pro-Chik-fil-A?

It's the premise and the terminology.

If I said that the "traditional definition of equality" doesn't include people with black skin, it would become clear. Right? According to old tradition, black people aren't equal, therefore they never had the right in the first place, therefore nobody is denying them rights by not allowing them to vote or marry or own land.

In other words, the very notion that there is some "traditional definition of marriage" is a paper tiger. It's just words used to justify discrimination and exlusion of other equal citizens to participate.

Oh but by the way, it has nothing to do with hating gays. Thats a huge leap in the other direction. You dont have to hate gays to not want gay marriage any more than you have to hate heterosexuals if you support gay marriage.


And yes, this is another entry in my ongoing series of manufactured buzzwords created to divide people. "traditional definition of marriage" is bunk. If you don't want to let gay people get married, grow a pair and say so (not to the OP, but to everyone)

Has that ever been a question? I thought it was pretty obvious they were against gay marriage (not against gays, against gay marriage) and they have said so numerous times.

thats cool that you do ireports for CNN, i didnt know that

The funny thing is nowhere in the bible does it say "marriage is between one man and one woman" But you'll hear these assholes say it does over and over again.

Chick-Fil-A
 

It's National Kiss Day & also National Cross-Dress Day at Chick-Fil-A. Since I'm not into kissing guys, guess I better find a dress.
On a more serious side, Chick-Fil-A is in an accommodation business as defined under the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Would you go to a business in 2012 that will serve African-Americans or Jews, but publicly states they shouldn't be allowed to marry? Or donates to some very intolerant groups?

On a different note, they had good chicken soup in 1990 in Corpus Christi when I lived there. The new one by me has crap for food. Food was bad before I found out their politics.

I didn't eat any chikin today.

I will put up a gallery tomorrow (don't feel like doing it now) of today's protest. Weak. There was a cowardly vandal that hit the place last night, then around 6:00 PM three lesbians showed up. I had to suggest that they kiss, and the "married couple" obliged.

Afraid as far as making a statement goes, Chick-fil-A supporters won, hands down.

It isn't so much that they hate gays as it it is they don't see them as being their equal. They are saying, "You are gay, my religion makes me believe that because you are gay you should not be allowed to marry another gay person. I can like you, but we are not equals because I am free to marry and you are not."

Now if you took the word gay out of those sentences and replaced it with with word black people would brand you as ignorant, a racist and a person filled with hate.

There was supposed to be a same sex kiss-a-thon in front of the chik fil a in Hollwyood friday night. Would love to have caught some lesbo action. missed it. Anyone grab a few pics?

Include supporting burning at the stake for people who don't worship the right way.

The Bible, Torah and Koran are books of fiction. Written for the purpose of propaganda, control and how you should live your life based on how they did 1,000s of years ago.

They're used to justify murder and genocide, it even includes acts of genocide carried out by god or on his orders. I say they're used and now was used because it happens today. Israel/Palestine, Syria, Iraq, Iran and even the US. Branch Davidians.

Now the crazy fuck is getting all the free advertising he could ever wish for. I advise KFC to come out with a similar piece of propaganda.

After the past couple of days, I disagree. Most of the people feel that marriage should be between a man and a woman. It is what they were raised with, it is what they believe. For the majority it has nothing to do with equality.

You can see my pics at http://www.gotbaddog.com/kiss-a-gay-day-chick-fil-a/

To be honest, I had to suggest that they kiss; it was like it never dawned on them, even though they were a legal couple and were carrying signs saying "kiss mor chiks"

Pretty weak turnout compared to Wednesday

Nice pics, baddog...:) Torrance is slowville, a bit.


I used to go to both restaurants from time to time until I started feeling physically sick afterward. I miss the KFC from the 60's when the chicken tasted like chicken and Pepsi or whoever was not in the picture.

Being a BenHya Southerner, I've noticed people have two takes on chik fil a. Like the chicken hate the chicken...and "They are a righteous family of god fearing people" or... "what a bunch of fucking wackjobs." IN GA and SC the workers all appear to be on mind control drugs. Like a cult or some shit. Glazed eyes and just a little too happy for me.

people like this scare me

I have to ask, why would he possibly scare you? You know absolutely nothing about the guy except he is a Christian.

i also know nothing personal about radical muslims and they equally scare me.

I'm sorry. Not sure what to say.

If someone is against gay marriage, let them say so with the ACTUAL reasons why without using the politcally create phrase "traditional definition of marriage" because it's just so much garbage. It's not a reason, it's a word designed specifically to make discrimination palatable by people who have no genuine reason to back up their position against gay marriage. IMHO.

Let them lay out their fears or concerns in plain english. Like defining a word without using the word in the definition. It falls apart immediately and that's why the phrase was created.

To people in 1900 it was completely normal for women not to vote and be excluded from leadership roles and so forth. History is just packed full of examples and it's just a little empathy or compassion needed to see the other side of it. To a gay person, it's simply about equality and nothing else. They're not asking for anything special, they're asking to not be faced with the intangible yet tangible "no gays allowed" signs placed in front of them by ignorant people who don't know any better.

When blacks were integrated into our armed forces, fully 80% of active duty soldiers said they shouldn't be. It took a strong leader to make the right call despite the ignorant masses who thought otherwise.

thats a first

Do you have any clue as to how women and black men got the right to vote?

Who gives a fuck

so Freedom of speech doesn't apply to those apposed to Gay marriages then?

Is it only minorities who have free speech?

I take the American capitalist stance on this. People have the right to say what they want and if you don't like then don't eat there. If you do then chow down! Think about all the elitist progressives, feminists, and religious nuts who want to shut your business down because they don't agree with it because you're exploiting women. Imagine that.

REPUBLICANS, actually.

They do scare me
 

I'm made no bones about it here on GFY. I was a bad boy, in my youth did my time. It's over.
But one place I was sent to, was an "honor camp" that was reached by driving over a dam, holding back a large lake. Driver of the van was a 'Christian' guard, who one day told the inmates, "If God directed me to drive into the lake and drown you all I would, knowing I would live or enter Heaven."
I could deal with honest guards, corrupt guards, smart guards and stupid guards. But how the fuck you deal with some idiot who thinks God told him to kill me?

Republicans HAHA!
 

Not your father's party. Damn sure not Lincoln's party.

More like Nixon's party

Wrong answer, thanks for playing though. They did it by changing laws. But I don't see that happening due to apathy of those that want the laws changed.

The entire presence of the right to same sex marriage contingency:

The chicks were there less than three hours, the guy with the big bible was closer to 8.

Right but it does say Gays should be put to death...

Leviticus 20:13 "If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall be put to death; their blood is upon them."

Close... but not quite.

Both Nixon and Reagan would be regarded as too liberal by today's Republican standards.

I don't like the food they have anyway and its way overpriced.

True.

Especially Nixon. Most people these days tend to only think of Nixon's personality (which was famously paranoid)

But policy-wise...he was a very "liberal" Republican compared to the "religious right" ass-kissing that goes on these days.

Nixon was more into economic policies...and quite frankly wasn't scared to do govt. "take overs" of the private sector as well.
He imposed wage and price freezes in 1971 !!!

Imagine if Obama tried that now...the right would be screaming that he's a "communist". lol

Reagan didn't really give a shit about religion either. But his campaign guys figured out that there was a HUGE voting block there who would vote in step for who their preacher at church told 'em to vote for.

And the pandering of the Republican party to the "religious right" began.

I don't think Reagan actually ever DID anything that they wanted. But he talked a lot of shit they wanted to hear.

Unfortunately it built them up and now The Republican party is hardly what it used to be.

Funny thing...the REAL Mitt Romney (the one who was pro-choice and used his own judgement on a case-by-case basis for issues) was what I consider to be a real Republican.

But like all Republicans these days...he had to switch his official stand on almost everything to appease the religious right in order to get the nomination. :(

My GF's daughter is the president of her school's LGBT club, even though she is just a straight beautiful girl.
If straights don't stand up for LGBT, who will? If Christians didn't stand up to Hitler, who would protect the Jews? If Whites don't stand up for the Blacks in the US or South Africa who will?
WHO WILL STAND UP FOR YOU WHEN IT'S TIME??
