I don’t really care how liberals interpret anything that is said. They are mentally ill, IMO

Most news reports I’ve seen have described Chic-Fil-A’s donations to the Salvation Army and FCA as “giving to ‘hate groups.’”

I had to look up which “hate groups” CFA was giving to. Imagine my shock when I saw the Salvation Army and FCA!

The world is upside down, and the so-called media can never be trusted. If the media were to report that the sun rises in the east, I would still feel the need to get up before sunrise and check for myself, rather than take their word on it.

When my uncle's mother was dying during WWII, he requested hardship leave to see her before she passed. He was still in the USA at the time, and his unit was not planning to ship out to a battle zone. The Red Cross refused to help him. But a chaplain told him to go to the SA. They helped him, a Jew, get home to see his mother before she passed.

He gave to many charities, but never to the Red Cross, and top on his list of giving was the SA!

There is no upside to this move. The gay mafia still hates them and Christians and they only succeeded in pissing off their customer base. I think the current owners are looking at making friends where there are none to be made and at the almighty $$$. Bad decision all the way around.

So do any other organization they give to (as a corporation) adhere to the belief that marriage is between a man and woman?

“The largest recipients are Atlanta-based charities Grove Park Foundation and Westside Future Fund. In 2019, Westside Future Fund received $1.7 million.”
------------------------------------------------------------ I suspect that both these groups support United Way and United Way supports Planned Parenthood.

Until today, I was unaware of that. So I will not be eating any more Chic-A-FlA. And a whole lot less.

I don’t and I do. I am not a chicken fan in the first place. I patronized them support them because the queers were after them. Since they surrendered, all bets are off.

Yep! They are not the first, nor will they be the last to learn the hard way that one cannot appease or satisfy tyrants.

” I am amazed that a company can be critized for giving to one charity over another... these are all people doing good work!”

That’s a liberal line if I’ve ever heard one. Doesn’t matter who you donated to, just so you start with good intentions. Moral absolutes be damned.

I might pass your comment along to Rush as a perfect example of what he’s been warning against all these years.

I tried speaking to anyone at their corporate headquarters. They are not answering their phones. I get the feeling they are in a panic mode at this time and no one is allowed to talk to anyone.

They brought this on themselves. If they were a public corporation, their stock would have dropped by 50% today.

Somebody needs to be fired. In the interim, I’m done.

I worked for CFA. It is not the squeaky clean company it makes itself out to be. It is anything but Christian.

“You will never appease the Left until you give in to them.”

You will never appease the Left IF you give in to them.

That was always the goal. They will never support CFA. They wanted them to cave so that we would drop them, too. It worked for the BSA. It probably won’t work with CFA, because I don’t see the public turning away from them. But, we are now in the position of hoping the public will punish CFA.

There’s nothing different about Chick-fil-A. They haven’t really caved. The Salvation Army will be just fine without the $115,000 it received in 2018. In fact, I recommend giving to them right now. I bet Dan Cathy is.

In the midst of the confusion and outrage due to their own words and lack thereof, why not make a clear statement that the company continues to support traditional values and marriage?

To be fearful of doing so is actually what is "homophobic."

Christians are the only army in the world who shoot their wounded.
