If this is a re-posting, I'm sorry. I'm just pointing out that Adam Smith (who reminds me of Wesley from "Forrest Gump") never really apologized. Also, those "death threats" were more likely from guys who e-mailed him and told him to try that rant on someone bigger than a high school girl, and he'd get his a$$ kicked.

[Never on my watch]

Should someone be fired from their job and threatened with violence, torture, even death because they have an opinion different than yours?

False choice.

Unless you ask a Muslim and they will say yes.

[IbJensen]

I can only hope that ‘Adam’ enjoyed his free water.

Unfortunately, I’ve watched a lot of videos posted on the internet but this one showed a miserable excuse for a human being attempting to be a successful smart ass berating a lovely young worker who was forced to put up with his homosexual ranting.

[circlecity]

The guy viciously abuses an innocent high school girl then posts video of it on the internet to gloat - what did he think the reaction would be?

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Adam misses the point yet again.

[econjack]

I still find it hard to believe that his name is Adam Smith, sort of the father of free markets.

[Navy Patriot]

Boo hoo, poor Adam Smith. he found out that it's not your opinion that people are trying to squash but your actions as a bully of a captive subordinate young uninvolved female, and your denigration of her character for her belief of causing no offense to you.

If the consequences of your actions make you limp for life, it's a lesson well learned, and your "death threats" come from your own, not from the people you attacked.

Live with it, douche.

[IronJack]

This is the Left at its Alinskyite best: when all else fails go on the offensive in full blame-the-victim mode.

Good luck ginning up any sympathy for this wad. And best of all, he’s a symbol of your whole obnoxious, hate-filled movement. So good luck recovering that too.

[jdsteel]

Notice he is still blaming others. It was this other video that gave me the idea. It was this hate group that blew it out of proportion. I'm a victim because I was fired and am getting all these horrible emails. Blah blah blah. If he came right out and said “what I did was wrong. I apologize to the young lady and the store. My actions were reprehensible, and I hope some day that she finds it in her heart to forgive me” THEN I might feel bad for him. As it is, no.

[cpa4you]

One of the first thing that my parents taught me, back in the dark ages, was that words have consequences. Mr. Smith is way beyond the age to have learned that lesson. Plus, he treated a younger woman with contempt by his actions. For which, my mother, would have castrated him! (Mom was 6 foot and about 145. She hit me so hard, once, that I almost took the frig out!)

Maybe I’d have more compassion if Mr. Smith were a pimply-faced kid and not a fully grown adult man?!

[ontap]

I'm guessing in his sick mind he imagined his little stunt was going to do the same to Mr. Cathy.....he would be taking bows and hailed as a liberal hero......funny how things work out!!!

[cuban leaf]

The story here is NOT how he treated that woman. I suspect that happened all over the country that day. It is not even that he recorded it.

The story is one of the delusion of liberals. They hang around their own so much that they forget that when they step back a ways, they are not the majority.

The story is that he honestly believed he would be "praised by the world which would laugh with him at Chick-Fil-A.

This is the mistake a lot of liberals, all the way to the president, are making. They think they are the majority. It is empowering them to do really stupid things. e.g. Obama AND the democratic party supporting same sex marriage.

What is so comical is that any reasonable person can look at the history of same sex marriage when it comes to a vote of the people and realize it is NOT supported by the general population.

And hidden in those stats is the fact that most who vote for it do so out of an "It's none of my business. Live and let live." perspective. Add bullying to your active support of homosexual marriage and you will lose even them.

[Old Sarge]

Did anyone take notice that this homo’s Facebook screen was created within hours of the incident?

More than likely, she was trying to gin up support from the massive homosexual presence on FB, increase her street cred, and get offers of “personal consolation”.

[Linda Frances]

Thanks, I missed it the first time around.

[Zathras]

The highly paid guy took time off from work to go to Chick-fli-a to yell at someone he didn’t know and then filmed it.
This is not only un-professional, it speaks of a someone you really don’t need as an employee.

[baddog 219]

Did you notice that in his first video, that he was with another male in the car and they both talked with a lisp, and acted liked they were on the same page and more than work buddies? How like a lot of homosexuals, talked over and fast so that others could not reply?
Yea, he is a straight male.... So he said.

[txrefugee]

What a miserable excuse for a human being. He acts the ass, videos himself doing so, and then tries to appear the victim! Only a liberal with less than three brain cells firing could come up with that scenario. He richly deserves the scorn of civilized society, and it should follow him as a stench wherever he goes.

[SkyDancer]

It was outright verbal abuse, verbal assault. It has nothing to do with free speech.

[Hiddigeigei]

I was quite impressed with the aplomb with which the young lady handled the situation. Chick-fil-A should find a well-paying position for her in their public relations department.

[MarkL]

The interesting thing here is that the vast majority of all the back-lash has little or even nothing to do with the views or opinions of people. I realize that the majority of Freepers probably supported CFA for the Christian values of the owners. However, I think that an awful lot of people who suppported CFA in the "Buy-cott" were doing so in reaction to the crazy reaction by both the media and these totalitarian pols who decided that they would protect their cities against the "intolerant," completely missing their own hypocrisy.

Now, Smith cries about how he's being persecuted for his views on homosexual marriage. Not at all. He's being hounded for not only being a world-class a$$-hat bully, beating up on a defenseless young lady, but then being so proud of his actions, he posted them for all the world to see. And now he's a victim? Right!
