I have never heard of this business until today. I don't think they have any out here on the West Coast.

NOooooooo... don't take away my chicken minis or my waffle fries!

I saw that people have been posting about this on facebook for awhile now. I kinda figured with them being closed on Sundays that their views were pretty conservative/religious anyway... so their anti gay stance doesn't shock me at all.

I know a few people that have worked for Chick fil A here locally for 10+ years now. They've always said it's been the best fast food company to work for. Then again, they aren't gay....

I'm in Southern California and they have them all over here. They just built a new one smack dab in the middle of Lakewood. We haven't patronized the stores since we found out about the views of the owner and the places to which he gives his monetary support. His choice to do as he pleases, our choice to take our gay dollars elsewhere.

This company is opening new places here in Northern Virginia and in Maryland. A friend of mine posted on her wall. I shared it on my wall. I knew they were closed on Sundays and since I remember back in the day when blue laws in Virginia existed, I didn't really pay attention to it. Needless to say, I am paying attention now and will spend my dollars elsewhere.

Well, that sucks. And I never did think that chicken patties and pickles went together very well.

A gay man I met in Texas was hired there.
They told him after working 3 hours that
he was bad for buisness and his kind was not a good fit.

This man had a decade of waiter experience.
He was very hurt by them and desperately needed a job.
They are fucked up and wrong.

I have known this about Chick-fil-A for a long time. I have never been to one because I don't eat fast food, but my cousin take her kids there to eat all the time and I have tried to talk to her about it. I think she is uncomfortable because she supports gay rights, but still likes Chick-fil-A for her picky kids. :/

I never heard of the joint till last week when some dude got pissed cause the Chick was stealing his shirts....

I found out we have one here by the University.

I had to read a little more here to figure out why they would be closed on Sunday 's cause they don't like the gays... ahhh I quickly found out "it's a Religious" thing.

Personally I think more businesses should be closed on Sunday. We really do need a day of "rest".... (I don't need a day of praying)

Well they are getting the free publicity out of all the chatter every where you turn...


I guess we can't get everyone to like us because of our color, our looks, our sexual preferences and so on....

People will chose to go or not go!

I know that you can find fault with many different companies. Some treat women badly or have horrible working conditions, etc.

But I really think Chick-fil-A is in a different category. The profits from the business get funneled directly to far Right Wing organizations that are actively working to stop the advancement of LGBT rights. It's almost like the business exists so it can make money for this purpose.

Why contribute to your own oppression by eating there?
