Homosexual activists demand removal of Chick-Fil-A from college campuses
LifeSiteNews ^ | March 12, 2012 | Christine Dhanagom

The fast food chain Chick-Fil-A, which has come under attack in the past for the conservative Christian values of its owners, is now fighting homosexual activists who want to see the restaurant kicked off college campuses across the country.

According to a Baptist Press report, the company has been at the center of controversy on at least nine campuses, including Duke University, Northeastern University, and New York University (NYU).

Students who want to see the restaurant kicked off campus or blocked from coming point to its donations to conservative Christian charities as evidence of its “anti-gay” agenda. According to IRS documents, WinShape, a charitable foundation funded by the company, funneled about $2 million to groups such as the Marriage & Family Legacy Fund, Focus on the Family, Exodus International, and the Family Research Council in 2009.

These donations, say NYU freshman Hillary Dworkoski, show that the restaurant is out of sync with her university’s “open and inclusive campus.”

“Maintaining a contract with an anti-gay vendor like Chick-fil-A undermines what makes this university so great,” she wrote, in a Change.org petition asking the school to give the fast food chain the boot.

What a dwork!

BTW, I found the rejection response from the student senate in the campus paper - here's a GREAT excerpt:

"As a general rule, the Student Senators Council believes that freedom of expression is the most important virtue of an institute devoted to education. The SSC also believes there is a fundamental difference between personal boycott and institutional prohibition. To ban any entity from campus for ideological reasons is, in most every case, to limit freedom of expression. It is because of this fact that the Council takes the weight of evidence very seriously when considering proposed bans."

Sounds like some of the kids there still have a little sense.

Just wait and see who replaces Chik-Fil-A on these campuses, and boycott them, spread the word that it’s gay chicken. 2% of the population with maybe 30% supporting their agenda on a good day, versus the rest of the country. I think I know who will win that confrontation.

Maybe you're a Mormon, maybe you're not ...


"Romney the Pro Gay-Marriage Advocate"


I AM NOT a Mormon, yet I know good, decent people that are, including my neighbor John and Family ...

But, friend ... I "cringe" for what's about to happen to the Joe-Six-Pack perception of the (otherwise Anti-Christ) Mormon faith ..




Rest assured, the Drive-By Liberal News Media ...

who are "deliberately" holding their fire on Mitt Romney ...

have planned for him ... and the rest of Mormonism ...

the absolute "hell fire" of a Stalizist-Nazi Propaganda war that would make Gobbels weep ... in shame ...




Who was supposedly a "major factor" in defeating California Gay Marriage ... a couple of years back ...

The Church of LDS ...

And Mormons will pay the "blood vengance" price for the "anti-faggot" campaign ... in ways Mormons do not yet TRULY understand ...




Have you ever read of the "Battle of Cannae" ... where Hannibel encircled and slaughtered 80,000 of Rome's Best in a single day ?




The Liberal Media will be advocating that (otherwise innocent) Mormon children committ suicide for their parents' grevious" War Crimes Against Hummanity ...


Are you naive enough to think that the OWS protests will "only" be at the Tampa GOP Convention ... bloody riots, as it were ?


No ... my friend ... Mormon churches (on Sunday after Sunday) will be picketed, some will be burned ...




And then ... "magically" ... some (Obama-Axelrod-campaign-planted "former Mormon" will kill a faggot somewhere ...

Was the "good man" provoked by the faggot ?

Of course ...

Did the faggot insult the good moral honor of the man's wife and daughters, and (laughingly) threaten to seduce and sodimze his sons ?

Of course, "all on script" ... just like the movie "Wag The Dog" ...




BUT you'll never hear "that" on Fox News or Matt Drudge ...

All you (and 2.5 billion other Earth inhabitants) will hear about is the "viscious" hate crime against humannity ...




If I was a practicing Mormon ... the LAST thing I would ever want is "Mitt Romney" as a POTUS candidate ...

"Open and inclusive" to all who agree with this female on every issue.

Chik a Fil and In and Out Burger both pay excellent wages and hirer all races...no illegals in sight. All their employees speak good English and Chi a Fil is closed on Sundays.
Therefore they must be racist. I would be very surprised to find they don't employee gays..and they certainly warmly great everyone who comes in the door.
Just go to one and look at the contrast between them and McDonalds and other fast food places. Better food, better employees..and lower prices.

They could also feature the “DADT” Burger. You never know if it’s Halal meat or pink slime or what.

Plus, they probably like the food. Hubby is a college football nut, and he follows a bunch of college football players mostly at our alma mater. They love chick-fil-a. A lot. Our college aged children love chick-fil-a on their campuses.

Let's make it a national "Hooray for Chick Filet Day" and fill up their coffers.

Let their detractors go to an OWS camp and eat tofu.

Woman at work mentioned that Chick Fil A is “Christian” and “racist”. I swear liberals are disgustingly misinformed idiots.

Btw does this story ever get to the details? I believe CFA’s great sin is that the owner donated to some churches which among many other things believe homosexuality is counter to bible teaching. Isn’t that his absolute right?

Now let see if I have this (ahem) straight. Gay activists want to replace Chik-fil-A with Richard-fil-A?

In Philadelphia they drove a health club owner out of business. His crime was daring to donate to Santorum’s senate reelection campaign. The term “nazi’ was used repeatedly. These people are despicable.

FINALLY -

A first amendment free speach case that actually deals with the real first amendment.

As soon as any school kicks a business off campus for poltical speach - it needs to stop taking any government funding for anything. These schools function as government agents.

The owmer is a devout Southern Baptist who has the temerity to observe the Sabbath on Sunday. Everything spins off of that. I knew a fair number of leftist activist sorts years ago, and they were ranting about that even then. One even said they had no right to be closed when he wanted a Chik-Fil-A sandwich. Years ago.

Trying to remember (ever) hearing anyone described as a “heterosexual activist”.

Obviously a majority of people hold the opposite opinion of the gay lobby.

Those opposed to gays, are logically, heterosexual activists.

Demand to be described as such.
