Perhaps they have *caved* according to this press release.
If this is true, then IMHO they are making a huge mistake. They will loose all the goodwill, and probably a lot of customers they gained by standing up for what they believe.
Mission accomplished for the Lavender mafia. :(
I’ll believe it when Chic-fil-A actually puts out their own press release until then though... It’s just another dis-information campaign to me.
” Winshape, a non-profit funded by Chick-fil-a, has donated millions of dollars to anti-LGBT groups, including some classified as hate groups”
One of those “hate groups” was Focus On The Family.
Guess I’ll pull my CFA bumper sticker off.
Bull s#it.
The left will never like them unless they donate to gay causes.
CFA just lost a lot of good will it had built up with the casual eater who got caught up in the latest flap - who might have become a regular.
Me? I eat there anyway because I have a power card and get a free chicken sandwich with a # 1 - 8 meal.
I don’t buy it. I read the press release from Chick-Fil-A and all they said is they wouldn’t donate to organizations with political causes.
I think they can, and will, continue to give to faith-based groups and churches.
Please contact Mr.Cathy and see if this is true and post it.
This makes no sense. The body of that statement says that Chik-fil-A sent a note to their franchises that they should not discriminate. They never discriminated against anyone.
Fat Chance.
WinShape is ostensibly the Cathy Family Foundation. They are not going to stop teaching young people that men & women are different, they are not going to stop offering marriage seminars to couples that stress the concepts in Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians.
It’s not happening.
The fact that Cathy’s name is mispelled with a “K” makes this smell like B.S.
When I hear it from Chik-Fil-A I will believe it, Until them I will not believe any web site who posts otherwise. I would also never post a piece of crap on this site that has not been verified.
With the dust having finally settled, a shocking report from a Chicago-based gay rights group claims that the fast food chain has now pledged to stop funding groups that stand against legalizing gay marriage.
Then there's this:
In a press release on Tuesday, The Civil Rights Agenda (TCRA) announced that an internal Chick-fil-A document shows that the company is re-thinking which organizations it will fund.
So all this is some Chicago homo group "claims blah blah blah."
And another group that 'claims' that it has seen internal documents?
Why would CFA change, it increased their business and broadened their name.
I look forward to the day when these homos, these sodomites go too far and they lose all their clout and people go back to believing what God said, it is an abomination.
I really wish somebody on our side would work as hard to de-fund leftist causes as Van Jones is working to de-fund ours.
SO.... Obama sicked the IRS and EPA on them?
Birdie birdie in the sky, Why'd you do that in my eye? Aren't you glad that bulls don't fly?The latest press release on the web site (http://www.chick-fil-a.com/Pressroom/Press-Releases) is dated 31 July 2012.
No info about them “caving in”.
