When did they say “HATE”? The owner said he didn’t agree with ghey marriages. Me and 125 of my co-workers will be there at noon.

The owner said a lot more than “not agreeing” with gay marriage, they’ve donated millions of dollars to anti-LGBT groups for years.
John said:
You may be right…he may have donated millions. This is America….FREEDOM of SPEECH and the freedom to donate his millions. He had an idea and the idea made him rich
. Did he really use the words “Hate Gheys”?

The out- of-town mercenary troops ( paid for by Koch bros. et al.) are already in place – in tents, etc. ready for the protestors!!!! I’ll be there in the morning tomorrow causing as much disruption as I possibly can.

Great news!! Their big opening at 6:30 this morning had all the camping paid lackeys leaving with only the management and security left- about 25 people standing around doing nothing. After the open- the first 45 minutes I watched a total of 4 cars go through the drive – through.
What if they give a party but no one comes!!!!!!!
Go, Thousand Oaks… put your money where your beliefs are.
Let’s starve them out of existence.

Never bought food from Chic-fil-A BECAUSE of their support for ex-gay ministries. HOWEVER, that was MY choice to with what I wanted to with MY money. When mayors and city councils get involved trying to use the power of government to shut them down, the I’ll go and buy a chicken sandwich. You don’t want to support their causes then don’t spend YOUR money there. Don’t try and stop other people from spending THEIR money. It makes you no better than the taliban.

This is getting ridiculous! It’s amazing how many people are “open” and “tolerant” of gays (or whatever other subject you want to put here), yet not “open” and “tolerant” to people who oppose gays (or whatever subject you want to put here). Right is right, wrong is wrong. When you start using a “relative” standard to judge these things, you have no standard at all. Props to Chic fil A for actually standing up for what they believe in, which happens to be Truth. Shame on protestors who claim to be tolerant of “everyone’s beliefs,” but really aren’t at all!

Devin, let’s change up one word in your comment and see if you still agree
“This is getting ridiculous!

Still OK? Why or why not? Being Jewish is a “choice”; I choose not to accept Christ so it must be OK to say you don’t agree with my “lifestyle” too, right? And there you just said what lots of others were saying in Germany circa 1933.
