Based on that line outside their NYC location, I'd say New Yorkers pick the chicken over De Blasio.

Ok I was just wondering why you didn't earlier in the week. Sounds good though.

Not saying he is, just saying he's getting close to that line. A government leader telling constituents to boycott a private business because their views don't align with his can be considered close to suppression of speech/religion.

Next step would be actually enacting legislation that would prohibit Chick Fil A from practicing business in NYC because of their beliefs, which is probably something he'd love to do, given the chance.

Maybe Dill DeBlasio should worry about urging New Yorkers to boycott something that actually does "impart a strong anti-LGBT message": Islam.


That's brilliant. Such an original thought.


Why don't we just kill all those ragheads. None of them are any good.

Truth. I've been so many times to a Chick Fil-A with at least 20 people in line, and gotten out of there faster than other joints that have 2 people waiting.

Why would you say such a terrible thing? What have they ever done to this country/NYC?

I was at one this past weekend, and their ice cream machine was broken.

I thought the old lady who was ordering was going to have a meltdown.

Did anyone see this in the foxnews article?

He really isn't. Again, I find his statements inappropriate but nothing about them approaches any actual establishment or freedom of exercise infringement. There's a huge leap to be made from making a statement that you won't encourage people to patronize a place and enacting laws prohibiting people of certain religions from operating or from expressing their beliefs.

Another absolute truth. We were on a road trip through Arizona. Stopped in some middle of nowhere Native American town to get the kids ice cream. Wife pulls in to McDonalds and I say "might as well turn around, no chance their ice cream machine is working." Sure enough...

I will never understand people waiting in line to get a pretty good chicken sandwich.

Is it not correct?

The ideology of Islam is incredibly homophobic but you never see that denounced by liberals at all. Why is that?

last time they tried it, people around me, hoarded the stores to show support.


Does anyone really even listen to Bill de Blasio???
