Subject: Chic-Fil-A banned from Boston, and parts of Chicago because of CEO Opinion
So far Chi-Fil-A has been banned from Boston, and parts of Chicago. This is in response to the fact that CEO is against same sex marriage, and only that.
While I applaud Boston for sticking it to the man in style, and with class, I must still lament the loss of those delicious chicken tenders. The cows will need a new plan.
Incredible urge for a chicken sandwich. Thats for deciding where to go for lunch

Though, should a CEO of a large corporation really be so vocal in his opinions? It's generally considered "bad form" for people in such positions to speak about social issues, isn't it?

We're all grown adults to and can make excellent decision on where to crave that chicken sandwich. The decision of a few hampers those unlucky to be in those cities. I WILL EXERCISE MY RIGHTS TO ENJOY A CHICKENSANDWICH

Well of course! Where will all the poor people go to get bargain bin offers on cheap crap?
Oh right Wal-mart. And I guess K-mart still exists.
But come on! Think of the Bostonians! They're stuck with KFC and heaven forbid, Church's *shivers* That my friends, is sacrifice.
I'm not aware of either existing in Boston. It's always been pretty choosey with what it does and doesn't allow. To memory mass only had like 3 chickfillas at all anyway.

You think he might be disingenuous?
A man trying to remove or deny the right to marry of a group of people based purely on their sexual preference is disingenuous?
Say it ain't so!

I can get good food without buying it from a bigot.
Good for Menino. He comes in for a fair amount of mockery, but this is a good guy move. The owner of Chick-Fil-A has the right to express his opinion based on his morality. The Mayor has the right to express his. We can each decide which we agree with.

Chik-Fil-A isn't public.

I won't eat at Chik-Fil-A because of their political lobbying; but I think they have the right to compete fairly against other fast food places in open venues. Let people vote with their wallets.

ATLANTA—As part of its recent efforts to publicly align itself with fundamentalist Christian values, the Chick-fil-A restaurant chain announced today the debut of its new Queer-Hatin' Cordon Bleu sandwich that would be on sale in all of the company's 1,600 restaurants this Wednesday.
In a press conference to reporters, company representatives said the homophobic new sandwich will include the national fast food chain’s trademark fried chicken filet wrapped in a piece of specially-smoked No Homo ham that would be topped with a slice of Swiss cheese and lathered in a creamy new Thousand Island-based cigarette Punching sauce.
"The Queer-Hatin' Cordon Bleu is our company's way of showing our firm commitment to strong, Christian family values," said Chick-fil-A spokesman Robert Gary, before adding that the vehemently anti-gay rights sandwich comes served in a combo with waffle fries and a medium soda for just $6.95. "From the very first morsel of this savory meal to the very last bite, customers can envision gays burning in hell with their sodomizing cohorts, and know that our sandwich is on their side.”

True enough. Some choices are easier than others, though.
