Because of Adam Smith [Chick-Fil-A incident] many will no longer support liberal gay community
8-3-12 | Arcy

Posted on 08/03/2012 7:39:53 AM PDT by Arcy

The internet world awoke to a video of an exchange between Mr. Adam Smith, the now former CFO/Treasurer of Arizona based Vante, who has since been fired after embarrassing the company, and a young woman working the drive-thru window at his local Chick-Fil-A restaurant.

Smith, enraged by the first amendment freedoms Americans have to express opinions he disagrees with, chose to direct his frustrations with the Chick-Fil-A corporation by ambushing and berating a young lady trying to support her family by working at the drive-thru window of the restaurant.

Despite the professional and courteous service Smith received from the lady, he was unable to restrain himself from unleashing a vicious verbal assault on her. Much to her credit, she remained calm and collected - something Smith, the acting CFO of a company, could not do. Unmoved by the kindness of the young lady, Smith continued his relentless barrage, all of which was captured on his hand-held camera and later posted on the internet.

The liberal gay community continues to be its own worst public affairs advocate. Until the leaders of that movement learn to be tolerant of American values and the freedoms American's have under the constitution, it will continue to push away those who have tried to defend it.

For the record. I am absolutely NOT gay nor do I believe it is okay to be gay.

You’re the one who brought up the Bill of Rights back in Post 7 to try to protect this guy’s job.

I am puzzled, a group comprised of less than 2% of the population, that has made a poor choice resulting in an average thirty years loss of life span, that can not reproduce so has to recruit, insists on dictating to 98% of the population how that 98% should conduct their lives. Good luck with that. NOT!

The problem that we have is that basing everything off of YOUR morals isn't a fair or accurate argument and that is where you and I, and it seems some other FReepers, disagree.

You bring up a very good question, and one well worth discussing even though we've strayed a bit off the subject at hand. And I hate that I have to bow out and get some work done. :-)

For the time being, we'll just have to agree to disagree, eh? Thanks for making some good points.

From a different article, moments after he posted to face book someone who knew him and where he worked called his employer and he was fire on the spot.

Watched it. Thanks for the link.

Pretty clear that he’s flaming.

Glad to hear that he lost his job as a result of his behavior.

I too appreciated the discussion. Besides, I better get some work done as well. :-)

Later, Mark

Since there is not one shred of justification for the overthetop response to some innocuous general comments made during a business related interview about a company’s philosophies, the ONLY interpretation is that this ENTIRE issue is nothing more than another agitprop corps project to move the gullibles eyes off the REAL issues confronting We the People.

Another of the specious tactics being used by the Alinsky/Cloward-Piven team to destroy This Once Great Country.

>Shift Focus
>Ridicule and Destroy Public perception of Opponents
>Deny the Truth
>Delay any proceedings not beneficial to “The Cause”
>Use the Big Lie
>Disrupt gatherings of Patriots
>Encourage Civil Unrest
>Dumb the population down
>Steal the votes
>Exploit tragedies to justify more control
>Make ALL citizens criminals
>Manipulate the press and create forged documents as necessary
>Manipulate “downtrodden minorites” (blacks, latinos, LBTG, females, the poor, the physically and mentally challenged)
>Lose historical documents in “natural disasters (fire or flood)
>etc, etc, etc and when all else fails create an “accidental” death

After all, their “Progressive” and “Noble” ends justify ANY means to achieve “THE GOAL” (complete control of everybody, all day long, very day).

It amazes me just how successful this campaign has been to date and I’m truly unsure it can be slowed down much, let alone stopped before disaster and destruction is at hand.

The Wrath of The Awakened Saxon, by Rudyard Kipling, comes to mind:

Do you know what that is from? I have a lot of collections of Kipling and can't remember seeing that.

Don’t know; I’ve only seen it “on the Internet”.

I’ve been looking for a decent hard-copy collection myself ... got any recommendations?

But it is a free speech issue. When you have mayors of cities saying the a business cannot open because they disagree with the opinions of the business owner, then the government is trying to stifle speech and that is unconstitutional.

>>for the record (from the CDC), Men who have sex with men make up 2% of the population (that’s right, forget the 10% number that gets thrown around). And, they account for 61% of new infections.<<

Yes. These facts need to be trumpeted loudly and repeatedly.

Factor those numbers into your health insurance premiums. And "they" want to get rid of pre-existing conditions.

Ha, we're talking about eternity here. It's like dark energy, eternally pushing.

Mentally ill people are not known to be great front men for public relations.

Gentlemen,
