Cathy's son, Dan, who is currently chairman and president of the chain, had told the Baptist Press in 2012 that the company was "guilty as charged" for backing "the biblical definition of a family." Gay rights groups and others called for boycotts and kiss-ins at Cathy's restaurants. The Jim Henson Co. pulled its Muppet toys from kids' meals, while politicians in Boston and Chicago told the chain it is not welcome there. The controversy later subsided.

This is AP's way of saying that "In the weeks following attacks by homosexual militants, millions of loyal customers organized immediately, waiting patiently in long lines to be served, and the chain registered its best quarter ever."

It is the longest I've ever waited in any line for fast food. It was also the most courteous group of folks going in and out of any restaurant that I've ever seen.
