No, it has to do more with the 1st Amendment than any "anti" movement. BTW, I just returned from Destin where I had a spicy deluxe ChickFilA sandwich. It was delicious and the first one I've tried in many years. My wife had chicken tenders and they were also very good. The service was outstanding considering the tremendous crowd they had. I think we will go back...soon.

I had a wonderful chef salad with an ice tea in the comforts of my home. Much healthier for my body and mind than eating fast food and dealing with the traffic going to Destin.....

Plus, I would prefer to spend my dollars on the local SoWal establishments when I do go out for a meal instead of a franchise....;-)

You poor people who depend on fast food chicken.None compare to brining the chic, dip in buttermilk , coat with flour and fry in cast iron skillet.

Chic-Fil-A has one of the best products in the fast food business. It's tasty and the service is always good. It bothers me that the management of this company are "haters", but it probably won't affect my decision when I feel like eating good fried chicken.

This is not a constitutional issue/ first amendment issue. Nobody is making them close their business because of their beliefs- Chick-Fil-A can operate as many stores as they want to- I don't really care. The government is not involved. People are choosing to spend or not spend money there based on what they now know about where the profits are going. I personally choose not to fund groups whose goals are to limit the civil rights of certain groups to live life as I do, and if I can avoid spending money in businesses whose profits are going out to such groups, I will.

From the pictures I have seen in the news of the Chick-Fil-A supporters, many of them might want to step away from the fast food scene altogether. I don't understand choosing to support an anti-gay business over eating something healthier (and lower calorie!). I'm just sayin'.....:lol:

All in all this issue has been quite entertaining. I feel like I am on the team that has the most fun in these situations!
 
On Tuesday Georgians passed an amendment that life begins at conception. What that means is that morning after pills, internal IUDs, invitro fertilization, and abortion rights are at risk. I don't believe in abortion as contraception. But many women like me had/have no chance of having a baby without invitro. It's bad enough that many health insurance companies pay for Viagra when a male's reproductive organs don't work properly, but not for infertility meds and treatment when a female's reproductive organs don't work properly. And now it may become illegal in GA to do invitro.

I know this is a tangent, but a lot more women are affected by laws controlling their uteri than the Chick-Fil-A debacle affects a smaller segment of the poplulation. I am not going to give my business to Chick-Fil-A, but that is trivial in my opinion as compared to what this new GA amendment has the potential of doing to all GA women's reproductive rights.

Sandwich or child?
