Every ChickFilA in Dallas has a massive line around it any time I drive by. All the gay people I know love CFA and don’t give a shite what the CEO said 8 years ago. The people turning CFA away are only hurting themselves.

What’s funny is that all of the Chick-Fil-a restaurants that opened around New York City and surrounding area have been very successful. So New Yorkers have no problem with Chick-Fil-a.

So this is just another example of government officials pushing their own personal agenda instead of representing their constituents.

Actually, yeah. My daughter said she was going to Chick Fil A and did we want anything. And I didn't give her any money.

I still don’t understand how it’s legal for a government to discriminate against a particular company like this.

I know I am wasting time on a retard here but this is not an issue of free markets, it's an issue with government interfering with the free market.

Of course understanding this requires at least a little bit of critical thinking skills which disqualifies you from the start.

Yeah, I've "always" (well the past decade or so) said that the misapplication of the slippery slope fallacy is ironically a fallacy itself (often a straw man).

The ss fallacy applies only where there is no independent reason to believe the next incremental step toward total insanity (in the case of "progressive" statism) will occur.

We KNOW that it will, because we've seen it time and time again on a very specific and well-documented trajectory, and we know (some of the) the intellectual diseases that cause this trend.

It isn't a slippery slope fallacy to say that someone with stage iii metastatic cancer, with disease only in their lungs and liver, is likely going to end up with cancer in other organs if left untreated. We know the typical progression of the disease and (many of the) reasons why it will spread to other organs.

So it is with diseases of the heart, mind and soul, such as today's malignant brands of progressivism.

I'm trying to get away from name-calling these days, and that particular one had been banned in our house. But I spit out my coffee at this for some reason (and it happens to be true).

Yeah I try not to overdo that myself but that particular one just has an unforgivable combination of ignorance and arrogance that can't be reasoned with.

Sure they do, especially when it's at a private company's facility.

It is truly a cancer on the fabric of our national identity and purpose. It is a headlong dash towards complete dissolution of a constitutional republic in favor of a mindless descent into abject poverty and misery - where EVERYONE IS EQUAL!!!!
