SAN ANTONIO
(Excerpt) Read more at news4sanantonio.com ...
Were they banned or did some whacko councilman merely make a motion to do so? Either the article is sloppily written, or it projects all kinds of wishful thinking.
Roberto Treviño is a flaming homosexual using his position to punish private businesses.
Normal people should boycott the city of San Antonio until their citizens remove Trevino from office.
Some Democrat opens his mouth and the headline morphs it into confirmed legislation and action. THIS is whats wrong with news today. This item isnt news until it is real, not some half cast Democrat ravings.
This is simply anti-Christian discrimination. Lawsuits need to reign in this hateful bigotry.
So “tolerant,” like most leftists.
The cancerous tumors are always the large urban leftist ghettos, where critical masses of special treatment groups live and mooch off of the government teat. Outside of these areas, we are as conservative as you can get.
Why does Chik fil a locate in airports? In Albany NY there is one Chik fil a in a radius of 100 miles, and it’s in the airport behind the TSA line?
I assume it's a very profitable location. You don't have to build and maintain a facility.
Im thankful that for the rest of my natural life I never have to drive thru Austin to get to San Antonio again.
Went grocery shopping yesterday. Small town San Marcos, saw plates from Ca, Ma, Wa, Co, and of course Tx.
Texas has left the barn door open and the freaks are pouring in. Austin is the fag city of the south. When Tx goes, the country will be lost.
yet another reason not to go to San Antonio.
If this fairy councilman gets 1000 bibles, it would make news.
Important note: Airport concessions are *notorious* for being used as corrupt deals by equally corrupt city councilmen and state legislators. If some investigator checks the bank account of this city councilman, I bet they find a whopping big check from Paradies Lagardère deposited within.
What makes it almost certain is that the contract with the new tenant had been sewed up before Chick-fil-A was kicked out.
They could have a claim for money damages for loss of income from the concession that they weren’t allowed to open due to discriminatory violation of their constitutional rights.
How is Chick-fil-A still thriving when some people accuse them of having a horrible track record on social issues?
Donald Tepper,
True story: I had never eaten at a Chick-fil-A before last weekend (Saturday, March 9, 2019). In the past, if Id wanted a chicken sandwich, which I dont often do, Ive gone to McDonalds. But this time I was in a different shopping center, one without a McDonalds but with a Chick-fil-A next door.
Side note: Id had their sandwiches before, but at wrestling tournaments. The sandwiches would be brought in in these temperature-controlled bags, and then sold by members of the Boosters Club. I wasnt really impressed. The sandwiches cost more than McDonalds and they were soggy.
But here I was in a shopping center with a Chick-fil-A next door. Oh, well, I figured. I could see the place was crowded, too. Lots of cars, and a long double-line of cars going through the carry-out.
I went inside and the place smelled good. Not like McDonalds. The menu items were all clearly posted. At McDonalds, there are these electronic screens thatll show a handful of items for maybe 10 seconds, then rotate to another set of items. I liked the clear posting.
After looking over the posted menu, I decided to get a spicy chicken sandwich. Not the whole meal, just the sandwich. There wasnt a line; people were being served as they stepped up to order. At McDonalds, I could have waited 5 minutes behind just one or two people. (Maybe theyd ordered fries or coffee, and were waiting on the next batch of fries or the next pot of coffee to finish brewing.) I ordered the sandwich and the person behind the counter asked what sauce Id like with that. I asked what sauces they had.
At McDonalds, that would have been greeted with a rapid-fire blur of sauces. Or the person would point to that electronic board where the sauces had to cycle through to be displayed. By now, the McDonalds employee would have forgotten whether Id ordered the sandwich or the meal. The McDonalds employee also would have forgotten whether I was eating in or carrying out.
At Chick-fil-A, they had all the sauces out on display. The counter person pointed to them and suggested that since I seemed to like spicy foods, I might enjoy the Buffalo sauce. Sounded good to me.
She handed me a tall plastic colored cone with sauce packets inside. She told me to find a seat anywhere and theyd bring the sandwich over. Wow! At McDonalds, Id have to stand near the ear-splitting ice-grinding machine, waiting for my number to be called. She didnt have to ask again whether I was eating in or carrying out.
I found a seat and, quite promptly, someone came over with the sandwich, wrapped, and asked: Don? Spicy chicken? Yup, that was me. The chicken was crispy, steaming, and hot. Tasty. A bit of a surprise, since my only prior experience had been at the wrestling tournaments where they were soggy. If it had been McDonalds, the sandwich would have been soggy, too. Are they ever crisp there?
A family was seated at the next table. At some point, the dad asked one of the Chick-fil-A employees for a refill on a beverage. The employee said sure, and in about 30 seconds was back with a refill. Nothing like that at McDonalds.
When I was finished, I started picking up the debris (the sandwich wrapping, the packet of hot sauce, the napkin. Before Id even gotten it all together, a Chick-fil-A employee came over and said, Oh, are you leaving? If so, I can take all that. And he did. Wow! At McDonalds, I would have gathered all that stuff, taken it over to a trash can, tried to slide it all into the trash can (those paper liners always stick to the tray!), and put the tray on the tray holder.
And that is why Chick-fil-A is thriving.
Texas is slowly-turning almost-purple, and blue near the mexican border.
*************
Texas isn’t that long removed from having Democrat Gov./US Senators.
Proving the amount of damages isn’t the issue. Governmental immunity is the issue.
As in every other state, the state and local governments have sovereign or governmental immunity from suit unless that immunity is waived by the state legislature. The legislative waiver of sovereign immunity in Texas is relatively limited when compared with many other states. There is no waiver of sovereign immunity in Texas to allow a private entity to sue a city or other local government for damages for tortious interference or other commercial torts.
That said, it is possible Chik-fil-A could have a federal claim against the City for violating its civil rights under section 1983. I can’t say I’ve ever seen a successful tortious interference 1983 claim, but there’s a first time for everything. It would be an interesting argument.
Dont move. Fight.
Everyone moves, and allows the Left to change the dynamics.
You left CA, look what happened.
You left NJ. Look what happened. You left IL, look what happened.
I’ve been saying this for years. Most often to the holier-than-thou homeschoolers here on FR who teach their kids math by candle in their basements.
We are going to be permanently outnumbered at the ballot box if we don’t stand our ground and fight.
The take away for me is that he was a Democrat. He’s dead now, his vile daughter is trying to take up the mantel but isn’t getting any traction. I’m happy to see them fade away.
