Homosexual activists demand removal of Chick-Fil-A from college campuses
LifeSiteNews ^ | March 12, 2012 | Christine Dhanagom

The fast food chain Chick-Fil-A, which has come under attack in the past for the conservative Christian values of its owners, is now fighting homosexual activists who want to see the restaurant kicked off college campuses across the country.

According to a Baptist Press report, the company has been at the center of controversy on at least nine campuses, including Duke University, Northeastern University, and New York University (NYU).

Students who want to see the restaurant kicked off campus or blocked from coming point to its donations to conservative Christian charities as evidence of its “anti-gay” agenda. According to IRS documents, WinShape, a charitable foundation funded by the company, funneled about $2 million to groups such as the Marriage & Family Legacy Fund, Focus on the Family, Exodus International, and the Family Research Council in 2009.

These donations, say NYU freshman Hillary Dworkoski, show that the restaurant is out of sync with her university’s “open and inclusive campus.”

“Maintaining a contract with an anti-gay vendor like Chick-fil-A undermines what makes this university so great,” she wrote, in a Change.org petition asking the school to give the fast food chain the boot.

Hey, I say more power to Chik-Fil-A and I think this campus brouhaha about the nongay sympathies of the company is another exposure of campus activist hypocrisy.

I’m not so sure I can rave as much about the food. It’s okay, and it’s a little better than Burger King’s. But, McDonald’s and the Kentucky Colonel both do better fried chicken pieces. The peanut oil does not lend as good a flavor as more conventional soy, corn, or canola might, and there is some medical concern that frying in peanut oil releases irritants to blood vessels that frying in other fats and oils does not.

I have a chick-fil-a just down the street. Once a week I buy their chicken biscuit combo through the drive thru. (They are fast, very friendly, super clean and the server wears a clean pressed white shirt and a tie. Clean hands and combed hair, and a big smile.)
They parking lot sparkles. This is the only place I take my grand kids to for food and treats...( Their banana pudding milk shake is out of this world!)
I will give Chick-Fil-A an A+ on everything they do and sell. Let the homos find somewhere else to spread their PC disease.

I feel like I’m in a science fiction book when I read these stories.

I started going to Chick Filet when the fruits started boycotting it.

I found it’s a damned good sandwich that the service is good and it’s people respectful and busy. Nobody sits around there, they are all busy.

I have grown to really like it, and the faggots are just hurting themselves and missing out on a good lunch. Well what I call lunch, what they call lunch is a bit different.

It also adds a slightly bitter, chemical aftertaste that becomes more and more noticable as the food cools. Fries from some fast food establishments are nearly inedible unless piping hot, for this reason. I seek out places that do not use Canola, actually rapeseed oil, because of it.

And here I thought it was because ‘chick’ was in the title.

“Now let see if I have this (ahem) straight. Gay activists want to replace Chik-fil-A with Richard-fil-A?”

We have a Chick Fil A right here in the middle of libtard Hollywood. The liberal morons don’t seem to mind as it’s always packed.

Allow me to correct your minor error in the above.

There are NO, repeat NO gay activists on that campus. The soi dissant “gay activists” are hired demonstrators for the Beef Cattle Union, those fine beings who supported the “Eat More Chicken” ads.

PS One does Not want to know what real “gay activists” prefer to eat.

I knew there was a reason I liked Chik-fill-a. We don't have one near us so when we were traveling we decided we'd try it out. Yum! Clean, good food, you can actually find a healthy choice, and the people working were very nice.

Eat more Chickin!
