College Lecturer Berates Local Chick-fil-A Employee at the Drive-Thru: ‘Horrible Corporation’
Blaze ^ | 8/2/2012 | Mike Opelka

Not all of the half-million plus people who reportedly visited Chick-fil-A restaurants on August 1st were there to support the company. There were a few folks who stopped by to protest the company. One such protester is Adam M Smith.

Mr. Smith is an Adjunct Lecturer at Eller College in Arizona and he also is the CFO of Vante, a catheter manufacturing company.

Apparently, Adam Smith is not a fan of the head of Chick-fil-A and he decided to let the company know how he felt. Smith sat in the drive through lane of a local franchise, intending to only order “free water” and give the company a piece of his mind.

In the video, initially titled ”Reduce $’s to Chick-Fil-A’s Hate Groups” – these points are worth noting:

•The college students that Smith sees off in the distance and speculates are getting ready to stage a sit-in, were most likely waiting to get into the movie theater they were standing in front of. •He tells the young woman working the window, “This is a horrible corporation with horrible values.” •He also goes out of his way to stress ,”I’m a nice guy, by the way… totally heterosexual. Not a gay in me, I just can’t stand the hate.” Not long after Smith posted the video on YouTube, it was removed.

However, other web users had already spotted the clip, copied it and reposted it, citing the ”Freedom And Innovation Revitalizing United States Entrepreneurship Act of 2007.”

We offer the re-posted video for your viewing pleasure.

Looks like Vante’s server is down, too.

"CFO of Vante, a catheter manufacturing company. "

I'm guess it's all about catheter insertion techniques.

He’s not a professor, he’s a lecturer. His day job is CFO at a company called Vante that apparently makes catheters.

What irony that a guy named ‘Adam Smith’ is railing against a legitimate free-market enterprise.

...but he had to spend gas.

...much of which comes from OPEC, which is generally owned by Muslims, who like to stone/behead homosexuals.

Adjunct lecturer = loser who is too low on the academic scale to get a tenure track position. (Also the pay probably sucks)

Too lazy to actually go inside and talk to somebody face to face?

Probably too cowardly, there were conservative men inside.

He thinks he is smart with his free water but he had to spend gas.

How many carbon credits did he burn up all just to harass some polite (and extremely young) woman?

I hope this DOES go viral and his bullying backside discovers that 'just desserts' isn't only a TV show.

And in the end this is about TRUE freedom of speech. Most of the time when lefties cry something is violating their right to free speech it’s nothing more than people who disagree with them. However this is GOVERNMENT saying to a business “we don’t like your religious and politics so you can’t operate in my city” which is nuts why anyone would support city officials doing this.

I didn’t think “homophobes” were real, but he clearly is a homophobe.

At least now I know what they look like and where they come from.
