The US eatery was un-PC.

I think they should go very, very bold, and open in Vietnam.

Really.

This place is taking off, and there are FAR too few international food outlets here.

Chick-fil-a would do GREAT here.

For real. Come to Vietnam.

Open about 20. Right here in Ho Chi Minh City.

You will sell a ton.

It’s Christian. It’s not “anti” anybody. The moral beliefs of people can be different. It’s ok.

I was there when it was called Saigon.

The property owner was pressured by homosexual activists to not renew the lease, what’s to keep them from moving to a different location?

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

As usual a fake victory for the left. The owner of the shopping canter is not renewing the lease due only to leftist pressure. I recommend stand alone locations for all new CFAs. We have one in a mall that’s been there since the 70s and is in no danger of ever closing unless the mall dies. It’s done so well that a few years ago they opened a large stand alone location directly across the street. Both are always busy.

It’s gotten to the point where if you don’t participate in homosexual orgies, every minute, every hour, every day, then you are a fire breathing anti-gay bigot.

We see where this is going.

When I was stationed in Vietnam (1969-1971) my wife would get Fried Chicken and Fried Shrimp at the KFC in Vungtau. It was open 24/7.

“... its donations to anti-LGBTQ organisations ...”

As #3 implies the left has (and we have allowed) the CFA donations to Christian organizations to be spun into the above commentary. The left states that any donation to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and such, is in fact a donation to an anti-LGBTQ cause regardless of the Christian organization’s stated goals.

Is it still PC to call a chicken a chicken and a rooster a rooster?

[Gay State Conservative]

Not being a business expert I'm tempted to take seriously the stories I've read about franchise companies that have started out strong but,some time later,found themselves in trouble for expanding too far and/or too fast.

That isn't what's issue here...it's PC of course.Europe is lost...absolutely lost...to depravity so we shouldn't be surprised by such stories.

[MarvinStinson]

“As reported by BBC News, it will now close after pressure from local gay rights groups and a media row around the causes it has historically supported.”

It’s a faggot’s world.

*U*K you UK !

[ThanhPhero]

I have been gcoming back here as often as I can make it for 16 years and have seen higher levels of prosperity every time I go. There were ox-carts on the road in 2003. Now there are cars in many yards in Cam Đức, "my" town, the streets are paved and the small town has become a large burg on the highway and Sài Gòn has traffic jams.
I am normally a bit snarky about American fast food joints opening there as the local food is much better and is cheaper. KFC is already there and I would like to see Chick-Fil-A in Sài Gòn. The Vietnamese do like fried chicken and I would rather see Chick-Fil-A than KFC. If they would put Maria La Vang in the window they would draw a repeat traffic from the Catholics without alienating the Buddhists et al.

[Midwesterner53]

Freedom died in Britain many years ago. Leftists fascists rule the day even under very conservative Prime Ministers.

[JudgemAll]

Chicken is luxury in Vietnam, so British fish and chips wont do well there, but ChickaFillet will certainly.

[SharpRightTurn]

“U.S. Fried Chicken Brand With Anti-LGBTQ Record Must Close First U.K. Restaurant”

A more accurate headline(?):

“U.S. Fried Chicken Brand with Pro-Christian Record Forced to Close First Restaurant in Heavily-Islamicized U.K.”

[Fiji Hill]

In Vietnam, they probably wouldn't have to worry too much about harassment from sodomites. However, would the Phở-loving Vietnamese go for fried chicken?

[Albion Wilde]

"famous as much for its donations to anti-LGBTQ organisations as it is for fried chicken sandwiches,"

That is a bald-faced lie, based on a bald-faced lie.

[Vision]

London seems like a hell hole.

Homosexual activists are depraved.
