Should You Boycott Chick-fil-A?

Slate ^ | July 25, 2012 | Eliot Spitzer

[Boomer One]

If they want to start an economic battle, I’m up for it. It’s not that I’m anti-gay, I’m just pro-free speech and the right of a citizen to express their opinion. If one side organizes and wishes to destroy my ability to shop where I wish, then I’ll do likewise although it goes against my free market beliefs. If the boycott of Chic-Fil-A is a success, then I’d suggest supporters of traditional values publish a list of companies not supporting traditional values and we start a nationwide boycott of them. Boycotts of this nature are nothing but blackmail of the masses by organizing a minority, something which our current President excels at. If the majority fails to stand up, our rights are lost forever.

So, when Client #9 pays for his meal at Chick-fil-A, does he leave his payment in an envelope on the counter?

I’m not saying Eliot likes to walk around wearing a sandwich board that reads “EAT MOR” with a hole at crotch level on the front board. I’m just saying that the idea is entertaining.

[bamagirl1944]

I’m just going to eat there more often. We love our Chick-fil-A’s here!

[Twinkie]

Eliot inspires me . . . my birthday is coming up in a few days. We live several miles from the closest Chick-fila. I think I’ll request that we go and eat lunch that day at Chick-fila . . uh, I forgot my birthday is on a Sunday; so I’ll go on Monday since they’re closed on Sunday. :o)

I think Mr. Spitzer would like to personally boycott Chick-Fil-A due to their anti-prostitution stance.

[Eagles6]

My thoughts too. Probably be a record year .

Had my first ever CFA meal last nite, as matter of fact. Spicy chicken sandwich, and lemondade, based on a recommendation here.

Will be going back for another tonite, and again on Aug. 1.

Eliot Spitze disses Dan Cathy for supporting heterosexual marriage.

Ain’t that rich?

I don’t mind the libs and homos boycotting CFA. I don’t shop at Target or JC Penney anymore, and I now buy Wranglers instead of Levis. At least with no libs at CFA it should be a pleasant dining experience.

Anyone who is not familiar with Chik Fil a and the Cathy family google "Truett Cathy" and "WinShape Homes"

I met Dan once years ago when he came to speak at my college campus. Truly a nice, humble guy. Oddly, I remember very distinctly he was wearing a Seiko watch. Nothing wrong with a Seiko mind you, but just not what I expected to see on the wrist of a (future) billionaire.

Boycott?

Heck no! Sign me up!

(got one close to work, going...)

[CodeToad]

Went there today as support for their American values. I’ll go again on the 1st, maybe even before that.

“Does he get that with a side order of hooker?”

No, it’s actually....can I get that with a side of “French Thighs”

“And I remembered that I betrayed my wedding vows, cheated on my wife and children and used women for my own lust and realized that I stand for NADA.”

[tumblindice]

"flex our muscles" He's a Democrat, Beavis, like that Weiner dude. That means .... Weiner ... heh heh heh heh heh

[Know et al]

Went to CFA twice today. I took a cup of ice cream to my barber and went back for my evening meal. It was very busy both times.

[Kozak]

I’m going to start eating there.
