Offer Free Water Day and keep the cameras rolling.
Let' review. It's not appropriate for folks to talk about your lives. The way to remedy that is ... talk about your lives.
Your damn right you lost, Abby, because this was a fight YOU started, that never needed to be fought. It really was a simple case of a devout Christian just voicing his personal views, and the HomoNazis decided to try to destroy his family business. And they pressured their political allies to join in on the bullying, this time adding illegal political pressure to try to get a Christian to renounce his beliefs.
What you've managed to do is lose and lose big. Because you managed to unite devout Christians and other people of faith, and then bringing people who didn't really give a damn, one way or another, about so called "homosexual rights," along with civil libertarians who actually care about individual religious rights, and you managed to REALLY piss us off at you. Any time you raise your head to speak your mind now, people are going to be VERY cynical and wary of anything you say.
Simply put, you and yours tried using the same tactics the Nazi Brownshirts used against Jews (and the communists) in 1930s Germany. And that really pisses many of us off.
And you're very wrong on 2 points. Number one, lessons WERE learned, and you managed to open the eyes of many people who USED TO BE SYMPATHETIC to your cause, which brings up the second point. You're VERY WRONG saying "the divide is as wide as ever." You've managed to open a fissure into the grand canyon. The divide you created by labeling traditional people of faith as "haters" and family groups as "hate groups" has probably set your cause back at least a decade.

What the gay community doesn’t understand, is that spending our money is part of our first amendment right. We, as well as Cathy have the right to donate to which ever charity that we wish. The Supreme Court agrees with this when they recently upheld the decision about donating to political parties and campaigns.
>>Yeah, I think we lost<<
As always, the liberal left (OK, an admitted redundancy), sees itself as “we.” The geys are a tiny % — less than 2%,,
WE won. We (the non-gay 98%) made it clear we understand what marriage” is and why it is important as a stabilizing force.
If you want to send you5r gay-supporting libtards screaming into the night, ask this simple question: “why 2?”
I have yet to get an answer and I have a nephew who is self-identified as gay. He can’t answer that question.
This is the part that gets me, they scream that their private life are private, and yet want to BROADCAST it to everyone, and DEMAND that you like and accept it.
Amen.

I’m thinking Arizona isn’t the only one confused in this situation...
>> First, never let anyone tell you that supporting bigotry means supporting free speech.
FO, asswipe. The 1st Amendment is NOT subject to your pathetic, self-serving interpretation.
Pure B.S.!
Interesting leftist gaming. As if a religious-based opinion about family values is equivalent to the ridiculous examples of alien abduction etc.
Ignoring the large, vocal, oppressive and manipulative hate group that attacks any opinion out of their talking points and agenda.
This is leftist manipulation at its best. Propaganda so people will have their dissenting opinions silenced.
Frankly, I care not one whit about what LGBTs do or how they live...but I do care when people with differing opinions are bullied into silence.
So much for the ‘red herring’ I guess.
We know how vicious, angry and intolerant you are, Abby. You won't really be able to hide it. Deviant sex is the center of your world. That level of imbalance is crippling.
Oh, no! Chick-fil-A might have lost a whole 1% of the possible market?
Why any mainstream company kowtows to this annoying minority, I'll never understand.
Liberal “logic”: Nabisco uses its company brand Oreo to promote “gay pride” and support for gay marriage with “rainbow Oreos”, and anyone who objects or threatens boycott is some sort of knuckle-dragging neanderthal who has no respect for free speech. Cathy expresses a personal opinion, in response to a question, and despite the fact that Chick-Fil-A has no policy or practice of denying service or employment to gays, Chick-Fil-A is evil and must be boycotted, driven out of town/campus/whatever.
Freaking hypocrites. The call themselves the “tolerant” ones but they brook no dissent — it’s not about free speech and exchange of ideas with them, whomever is on the “wrong” side of the issue is automatically in the wrong about everything, and shouting them down is preferable to having to defend a belief.
What this guy does with his privates is SO BORING; but that’s ALL they want to dwell on 24/7. Oh, and what Dan Cathy, or this writer, or anybody else, does with their CHECKBOOKS is nobody’s business. I think the LGBT beef with Cathy is they simply covet his money. SELF-DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR on steroids.
They fired the first shot and then whine about the ass kicking they got.

The confusion is on Beaties’s part not Arizona’s
