I bought a few boxes last week, but I think I’ll buy a few more.

My guess is the guy will capitulate (they always do) but he should take a lesson from Chic fil a and make some cash over this.

Wouldn’t it be nice if those who want “acceptance” lived by their words?

Its get even time for a lot of folks who have real or imagined hurts in their lives and live lives based on fear and resentment towards others (religious conservatives) who are different than they are.

Hate, intolerance and so on.

This is brownshirt thuggery except unlike the 1930’s they don’t use the “Jew” word when they target the business.

I must not be doing it right. I make anti-gay comments all the time and never get boycotted.

The gays (who are anything but carefree, lighthearted & cheerful) have just ignited another Chick Fil-A friendly backlash.

Barilla pasta will be flying off the shelves.

And we thought that faggies are SOOOOOOO smart!

I’ve been buying Barilla for years. Have subscriptions for it on Amazon. Good product, fairly priced. Recommend highly.

me too cause pasta is pasta, right? But I’ve bought Barilla on sale.

It’s hard to make a mstatement by spending a few pennies more once a week, but its worth a shot.

Eat more chikin at Chick-fil-a.
