One of the nations largest gay advocacy organizations is greeting Chick-Fil-As divestment from Christian charities like the Salvation Army with tepid praise and further demands, including an unequivocal denunciation of the brands history and values.
GLAAD (whose name is an acronym for its former title, Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) demanded safe workplaces for LGBTQ employees and an apparent denunciation of the Christian ministry Focus on the Family, responding to Chick-Fil-As decision to stop donating to the Salvation Armys Angel Tree program for needy children and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, which serves historically black colleges and universities (HCBUs).
The full statement from Drew Anderson, GLAADs director of campaigns and rapid response, names more steps the fast-food chain must take to prove its genuine repentance:
"If Chick-Fil-A is serious about their pledge to stop holding hands with divisive anti-LGBTQ activists, then further transparency is needed regarding their deep ties to organizations like Focus on the Family, which exist purely to harm LGBTQ people and families.
Chick-Fil-A investors, employees, and customers can greet todays announcement with cautious optimism, but should remember that similar press statements were previously proven to be empty.
In addition to refraining from financially supporting anti-LGBTQ organizations, Chick-Fil-A still lacks policies to ensure safe workplaces for LGBTQ employees and should unequivocally speak out against the anti-LGBTQ reputation that their brand represents."

Leftists must have married into the family. Just a guess.
And, they must not fry up any gay chickens
Truett Cathy is spinning.
The "never enough" approach has been the Left's way of operating for the last 60 years. It isn't going to change and people will never learn.
I think it is not.
Anyone who has not lived in a cave on Mars for the last 30 years could have predicted this response from the SJW garbage at GLAAD or FAG or whatever they call themselves. The fag/rug-muncher* SJW set is never satisfied, which is why you should never give them a nanometer, never apologize for offending them, never accommodate their demands but rather double down on whatever it was that "triggered" the (stretched out) a$$holes. Do as Winston Churchill said, "Never, never, never surrender."
*About 3% of the population demanding special treatment because of their unnatural sexual preferences
They don’t have to be lefties. They just have to have a price.
Company is still privately held by the Cathy family but theyve put the reins into the hands of a new CEO in 2016, Tim Tassopoulos. Hes the one who made a mealy mouthed statement that suggested that they couldnt grow in certain markets until they got rid of certain baggage.
But heres my predictions. WHEN Demonicrats eventually regain power, they will force such businesses to go public, and will then be subject to their edicts.
Have fun, Chick.
I truly despise those demented, child-corrupting perverts. They can burn in hell... today.
Very true. Forces of darkness will not be satisfied until Chic-fil-A has denounced and destroyed itself and become a haunt for fell creatures.
Never pander to the Left for any reason. Never apologize to them, unless you know you are wrong. Never give them an inch. Not. One. Inch. Reach across the aisle, my a$$.
When did CFA cave?!?!
I’ve never eaten there but they’ve opened one in a mall near me.
Do I not want to go anymore?
I really don’t give a #### about their food, just wanted to support them.
sounds like it’s not worth it now.
Well, that and the 40 bucks a year I would spend there wasn’t going to change their outcome :)
Now if I stopped buying McD’s THAT would hurt Ronald, and probably add 5 years to my life :)
I suppose that I was a part of that baggage.But now they are rid of me and as far as I am concerned, they can expand to their heart’s content. I have no plans to ever darken their door. However if they think that what they did will satisfy those that are after them, they are headed for a heartbreak.
America needs to collectively rise up against perverted letter people. This has to end.
As Ive been teaching my Sons:
If someone says something that offends you, thats YOUR fault.
Never give someone else control over your emotional state.
This is why you must never capitulate to these a$$holes... nothing is ever enough for them.
I’ve never viewed Chick-fil-a or the Salvation Army as “Christian” organizations anyway. I just hope this means there will be much shorter lines in the drive thru now.
If you enjoy McDonald’s road kill burgers, more power to you.
What a surprise... the Hussein Heads here aren’t up yet today to trash us for our understandable reaction to CFA’s surrender to our domestic enemies.
They outed themselves well yesterday, caught n00bs from 2018 and 2019.
lol
I don’t think there’s any road kill in it.
That would be Real meat :)
