I don't think anyone has a problem with the boycott, it's the politicians falling all over themselves to prevent a business from opening up in their districts so they can score political points with the gay community that's the problem.
I have a problem with boycotting an entire business chain because of one man's opinion. That kind of retarded shit costs people their jobs.

People have every right to shop where they want for any reason.

If a company puts their politics in front of their product, they'll be judged by their politics before their product.

It is not about someone just expressing an opinion. It is about Chick Fil A buying PACs in order to legalize discrimination against gay when it comes to things like employment, housing, etc.

Chick-fil-A says it set a sales record on Wednesday, the day that supporters rallied around the fast-food chain amid a debate over its president’s opposition to same-sex marriage.

The chain won’t release sales numbers, but “we can confirm reports that it was a record-setting day,” said Steve Robinson, Chick-fil-A’s executive vice president of marketing.

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee had called on people to buy food at the chain on Wednesday, which he dubbed “Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day,” after a backlash against the company and their president.

The controversy started after an interview with the fast-food restaurant chain’s president and COO, Dan Cathy, appeared in The Baptist Press on July 16. He weighed in with his views on family.

“We are very much supportive of the family — the biblical definition of the family unit,” Cathy said. “We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that.”

On a Facebook page Huckabee created announcing the event, more than 620,000 people said they would participate.

He called for a vocal response to the backlash against the restaurants and its president.

Throngs of people went to Chick-fil-A restaurants across the country Wednesday. On Facebook, fans posted photos of themselves holding bags emblazoned with the restaurant chain’s bright red logo.

Nothing like almost a million worthless fat ass americans coming together to say 'fuck you' to gay people

Did you see chick fil a issued a recall for the muppet toys they give out in their kids meals as a result of the muppets dropping chick fil a? The news report I saw had a picture of a sign posted in a chick fil a saying they were recalling the toys due to a safety concern, despite consumer reports (who usually issues the recall) saying there is no issue. Plus chick fil a themselves said it was a voluntary recall in press releases, despite pictures of the recall notice posted in stores saying it was because of a safety concern.

hurr durr america is a republic not a democracy.

good arguments for freedom and liberty, considering the definition of a democracy is any form of government that the head of state isn't passed down through hereditary means, aka a monarchy. china's a republic, soviet union was a republic.

hurr durr shifty.

in texas, a tea bagger beat the lt. governor in a primary for senate. the lt. governor was a conservative, was even right of rick perry. meanwhile, you have a republican rominee that is putting his foot in his mouth because he's out of the country, and has publicly declared to resume sucking conservative dick when he gets back to the democracy, err, i mean the republic. i still can't get anyone to tell me which of bushes policies our constitutional scholar in chief has actually changed, hell even Gitmo is still open last i heard.

too bad jeb's last name is bush, he could have won this year without being saddled with that kind of baggage, so he fights it out with norquist.

that's just great, we have jeb and grover fighting like it's a beverly hillbillies episode, dick cheney commenting on how shitty palin was as a vp pick, the tea party fucking over the republicans after the republicans tried to co-opt them, and everyone holding their breath to see which white millionaire the rominee picks to lose to obama to.

gg republican party, this ain't your daddies g.o.p.

Unemployment would be 11% right now if labor force participation was as high as when Obama took office.
