A California city that last year approved the addition of a Chick-fil-A at its local airport now wants to send a message of support to LGBTQ people as the opening date for the fast-food restaurant nears.
The San Jose City Council voted 11-0 on Tuesday to hang rainbow flags in support of LGBTQ people and pink, blue and white flags for transgender rights at or near a Chick-fil-A due to open in May at San Jose International Airport.
Rosemary Barnes, a spokeswoman for the airport, said it will decide where to place the flags.
The council's vote comes as two other cities around the country have blocked Chick-fil-A from opening at their airports over concerns that the restaurant chain has a record of supporting anti-gay organizations.
Ken Yeager, the first openly gay elected official in Santa Clara County, told NBC News on Thursday that he submitted the flag idea to the city council at the Tuesday night meeting.
"I made the suggestion to put the flags next to the restaurant, and council members liked that idea but also said that maybe put flags elsewhere, too, like outside," Yeager said.
San Jose Vice Mayor Charles Jones said the plan is to have a flag or flags near the restaurant and outside of the airport.
The city council last year decided to allow a number of restaurants including Chick-fil-A to open in the airport food court, which some council members now say was an oversight.

So, not one member of the San Antonio government is not controlled by homofascists ?
Or even San Jose...
So Christians should go there and hang rainbow flags, too - as a background behind Noah’s Ark.
They seem to so easily do this against Chick-fil-A so why not at the same time set up a Bible study in or near a gay-owned business? We are losing the war by not fighting.
Vietnamese aren’t the problem. They are grateful to be here.
Terrorism doesn’t arise from noodle shops and nail salons.
I was describing how San Jose currently is.
I don’t recall saying they’re a problem, let alone compare them to terrorists.
The Bible has two stories about homosexual males gathering outside a man's house demanding to have sex with a man inside of it. Most people know the one about Sodom and Gomorrah and Lot, but most people do not know the one about the traveler to the city of Benjamin. Yes, the men of the town wanted to rape the male traveler, same as Lot's story in Genesis.
My point here is that Homosexuals apparently won't leave people the f*** alone, and it goes back thousands of years.
No, cultural appropriation. They stole the rainbow, you know.
If nearby, call them BIGOTS, and that they HURT CHILDREN.
Tell the flag manager his bigotry is disgusting and you will not wear his gold star.
Deny them the approval they seek for their virtue signaling, Alinsky style.
Then laugh as you enjoy your chicken burger.
The vicious left are the rich elite who hide behind causes and “movements” like feminism to attack peaceful society.
Why should the government promote the LGBT ideology/religion?
if its YOUR property hang whatever you want up
hear me HOA morons ?
FREE SPEECH
Symbolism over substance
Need the transgender colors explained to me.
Gender is fluid, and pink and blue dont represent anything, right? So?
“Well lookey here - they done provided these purty cloths so’s we can wipe the homeless poo offen our shoes. Almost as nice as those folks in San Francisco who have needles all over so’s we don’t slide down the hills.”
Do you know the way to San Jose..big fella.
