Gay rights group Equality Illinois is organizing a Kiss-in at Chick-Fil-A restaurants nation-wide in response to the statements by CEO Dan Cathy, who confessed he was guilty as charged when asked about his support of the traditional family.
CBS News reports that Cathys statement in a recent interview was:
We are very much supportive of the family the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that. We know that it might not be popular with everyone, but thank the Lord, we live in a country where we can share our values and operate on biblical principles.
The fall out from the Chick-Fil-A CEOs statement has been widespread, with people like Mike Huckabee joining in support with the company, but gay and lesbian rights groups urging people to boycott the restaurant for their lack of equality.
While the company itself has attempted to backtrack from Cathys comments, saying that they strive to treat every person with honor, dignity and respect regardless of their belief, race, creed, sexual orientation or gender, their attempts have been unsuccessful.
Equality Illinois has dubbed their campaign Flick-the-Hate, and the group is also urging people to sign a petition that will be geared toward universities and malls that host Chick-Fil-A restaurants. The group stated:
As we challenge the companys anti-LGBT policies, we must also ask these universities and mall owners why they want to do business with a company that holds up hate as a family value.
A Facebook group has since been created with the title National Same Sex Kiss Day At Chick Fil A, and describes itself by saying:
Unless youve been living under a rock this week youll have noticed that Chick Fil A has officially come out against the LGBTQ community. (For those of you who have been living under a rock, or just want to read it again, heres the article http://www.latimes.com/business/money/la-fi-mo-chick-fil-a-gay-marriage-20120719,0,5713061.story)
In honor of their support for love, equality, and the real definition of family, were holding a NATIONAL Same Sex Kiss Day at Chick Fil As around the country. So grab a friend (or 20) and head out to your nearest Chick Fil A! And dont forget to post photos/videos of it here! For all the world to see!
CBS Local notes that Equality Illinois is also urging that people make August 1 an Eat For Love day, where participants eat at restaurants that openly support gay marriage. They are asking that participants post where they are planning to stage their kiss-in protests, and to also send pictures.
Equality Illinois states that at the kiss-in, LGBT supporters will show their disdain for Chick-Fil-As policies with public displays of affection in front of their restaurants.
Maybe, but you don't know any of that.
It's being "reported" by a blog with an anonymous "author".
Have you a credible source for this?
Wonder whether they might try that at Chick-Fil-As in Alabama?
I’m guessing “not.”
I find it ironic they want to be accepted but seem to acknowledge that two men kissing grosses most normal people out and so they are using that to drive away customers. They truly have miswired brains.
The Leftists are nothing but evil copycats.
As if any but a few restaurants could make a living serving only queers and queer supporters.
Excellent idea! Bruthe kissing Bawney photos! Finally! That is the way to build support for the faggot agenda.
Notice how not knuckling under to every little whim that the Gays demand, get you labeled a “hater” ??
The truth is, most of us could care less. It’s the Gay Activists that have been getting in everyone else’s face. THEY are the aggressors, and THEY are the ones spreading hate. . . .
The war has been going on for decades. The battle to take back what we have lost is only now beginning. The homo-fascists have bitten off more than they can chew.
Let this be the Waterloo of the culture war for the homo-fascists.
Let this be our battle cry: Eat more Chick'n!!!
The perverts will not have the last laugh.
Elderly drivers...this is your que.
(Remember; "I thought I was stepping on the brakes")
Get a big sign with the words “Gay Porn Photo Shoot”
Get several people with cameras and video.
Have someone question the homos heavily and in great detail as to all aspects of their ‘lifestyle’.
When the homo spazzes and attacks the questioner, have them arrested and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Now for the best part, put the video on You Tube titled
Violent Homosexual Arrested at Gay Porn Photo Shoot”
Sit back and enjoy a chicken sandwich ;)
A queer is a queer is a queer.
I don't believe their brains are mis-wired - I believe they choose to be queer and that may be based on some messed up life event, but it's still a choice.
Why stop there???
How about live gerbil demostrations...?
While the company itself has attempted to backtrack from Cathys comments, saying that they strive to treat every person with honor, dignity and respect regardless of their belief, race, creed, sexual orientation or gender, their attempts have been unsuccessful.

I don’t call that backtracking. I call it explaining the obvious. CFA is not going to check to see if you’re gay or straight before completing your order. It won’t deny employment if you’re gay. There is no harm being inflicted on gays or anyone else.
This is all about a minority of malcontents dictating what is politically correct speech and what isn’t. It’s time we say ENOUGH before our Constitutional rights erode completely.
Arrest them all for public lewdness.
Lol!!
If you decide to sell tee shirts, please let me know.
Go to Chick-fil-A and everyone can kiss their loved ones at the same time the gaybots go off on their kiss attacks. Upstage the gays at their own tactics......BRILLIANT.....
During my 20 years working in a big city ER I worked with an old time,battle hardened ER nurse who told me stories...stories that I can't go into lest I be banned for life from FR.
