The left is showing just how intolerant they are.
NY is rapidly on the way to becoming a sh*thole city anyway. Just wait and see. Progressives cannot yet take a bodacious Obama in the streets, but it’s on the Major and Governor’s agenda.
The franchise will probably outlive liberal bastions of outhouses.
They can’t stand facing the fact that a Christian is allowed to live, and to own a business. Why they find ways to destroy them - the gay wedding cake is a prime example.
The goal: eliminate Christians, after taking all their money.
New Yorkers love chicken also. I think there are somewhere around
a dozen Fil-a stores in the state now. Give it a couple more years and
there will many more.
“But New Yorkers are mostly grownups, too”
Assumes facts not yet in evidence.

Wow - so the left thinks anyone who believes in Christ cannot serve a chicken sandwich. They are looking crazier and crazier every day.
A jackass NYer writes a jackass column. I’m just surprised it wasn’t in the New York Times rather than the New Yorker.
Most people in NYC who eat there are eating for the “healthier” chicken options. I doubt all of them know it is a Christian business or care. The first day it opened, it was overwhelmed with customers which horrified the local press.
I’m a New Yorker who just spent a happy week in Alabama. Call me nuts but all the churches and religious folk I ran into gave me huge comfort and a feeling of warmth.
The mere fact that a fast food restaurant is labeled as “Christian” is nothing but a war or words by the left-wing. The left-wing claims no one should “label” anyone or stereotype or name-call, yet, here they are doing it.
Wonder what a chicken sandwich costs in NYC. Chick-fil-a are expensive compared to most fast food restaurants. The basic plain sandwich costs ~$5. Wonder if it is $10 in Manhattan?
This is affirmation of the leftist leaders’ narrative about how people are not smart enough to make their own decisions, and so, the leftist newspapers and leftist leaders will try to make the decisions for those ignorant masses. Chic-fil-A has to be shown to be the worst kind of conservative evil around. How dare they bring religious beliefs into the restaurant business and to their “cleansed” city streets?
Thre’s a revolution going on, and the leftists need to lose this war and shown the way out of the country. Religion is not the enemy; the enemy are those that want to control every thought process of the population.
Some people are the biggest crybabies. Screw em. I will eat a chicken sandwich every now and thenot anyways.
Don’t like it, don’t buy food there. Certainly this writer sets the tone for everyone else in NY.
If religion bothers them so much then what do they think of all the “halal” signs that have taken over the food carts on the streets?
America was better when it was a Christian country.
These people just hate. If it wasn’t Chik-fil-a it’d be something else. Nasty rotten people.
It would have been unthinkable for the author to write a column describing the presence of any other faith but Christianity as an “infiltration.” The fact that this column was even allowed tells us that - on the left - it is now acceptable to publicly mock Christians as Christians, and even to exert pressure to force them out of polite society.
I read the original in the New Yorker with smile slightly askance. I am still considering the possibility that it may have been a conscious self-parody. If the NYer is not as irony-deficient as I suspect they are.
Yeh LIEberals what’s so creepy about Chick fil A? They are restaurants that serve delicious chicken sandwiches, treat customers with courtesy and good service, provide jobs, contribute taxes and add quality value to their locations. That they are Christian Management, stand for certain values and close on Sundays riles up the LIEberals? CFA denies service to nobody— all are welcome so long as they are civil and not disruptive like attention seeking leftist misfits. LIEberals hate God - that’s the main issue with them.
there is nothing, but nothing more parochial than a leftist.
