Giving a Little Support to Chick-fil-A Today

Figured I'd eat lunch there today to support free speech.
It bothers me what the left is doing to this company.
Pretty good fast food too!

If there were one near me, I'd stop by for lunch myself. Great organization with a great product and treats their employees very well. Can't beat that!

Yes, CFA is quite good. What is "the left" doing, other than exercising free speech?

For everyone's enjoyment. Here's what Marc Randazza had to say about it.

Chick-fil-A and free speech - CNN.com

Just got back from my local Chick Fil A and it was packed. I totally disagree with their position but I think its great they have the courage to stand up for what they believe.

I cringe when people use the term "free speech", which is typically a constitutional issue centering on governmental interference with speech and expression.

Isn't that what's happening in Boston and Chicago already!

And the place was packed. Line of cars around the building.

Just biding my time, waiting until the president of Chick-Fil-A gets caught with his pants down. It's been my observation that those who preach family values the loudest eventually get caught at the local Happy Ending Motel wearing nothing but a Lone Ranger mask and black socks while in the company of a blow-up doll.

I've heard reports of rhetoric being publicized. We'll see if any municipal government actually "bans" a legal commercial business for its corporate owner's philosophy. I understand that the ACLU is also waiting to see.
