I am of this view as well, and would have participated in the Chik-fil-A Day if one were near me for this very reason.
CFA does donate to organizations which actively work to maintain marriage discrimination and defeat ballot measure smaking gay marriage equal to hetoro marriage.
Like they say: Follow the money. And that money source is Chik-fil-A.

What do we say about people who fought against legalized interracial marriage?
Remind me what gays are being denied at CFA. To my knowledge nothing. If someone can show actual discrimination we might be able to talk.
The CEO of CFA writes checks to organizations which seek to prevent marriage equality for gays. For instance, he donates to the Family Research Council which actively works against state ballot measures which seek to give gays marriage equality.
That is not discrimination of customers, employees, or suppliers of CFA. That is his own damn business.

Warning: inappropriate comparison to civil rights movement spotted!
This isn't about blacks or whites. It is about chicken sandwiches.

Who is they?
This whole CFA thing spurred 'CFA hates gays' type of talk. CFA may believe that homosexuality and ssm is wrong or a sin ... but I do not believe CFA "hates the gays".
We urge mall owners who rent space to Chick-fil-A to look deeply at the hateful organizations the company supports.

Did you read the OP or not? Did you read the link in the OP?
That is who "they" is.

The petitioners are not saying "CFA hates gays". You came up with that on your own.

"hateful organizations" ... why, because they believe that homosexuality is a sin and they believe ssm is wrong and are fighting to preserve traditional marriage? Like I said earlier, it's like people don't know the meaning of the word tolerant.
Go google "CFA hates gays". It's all over the web and it's bullshit. CFA doesn't believe in ssm and run their business according to their Christian beliefs and it drives gays nuts so they cry that "CFA hates the gays." It may not have been in the OP but it's relevant to this discussion, which is why I brought it up.
Got it, Gays are intolerant because they disagree with CFA's intolerance? Well, that makes sense.
This whole controversy is bullshit.
Here are some facts:
1
Just because a person likes Chick-Fil-A sandwiches does NOT mean that person opposes same sex marriage.
2
Just because a person opposes same sex marriage does not mean that person hates gay people.
3
Just because gays want to change the definition of "marriage" does not mean that should happen.
4
It is possible to give gay couples all of the same benefits that married couples get without changing the definition of marriage.
Its called an economic boycott, perfectly legal, perfectly appropriate theres no hypocrisy, gay or otherwise. And as long as government stays out of it citizens may petition for boycotts for whatever reason, without justification. Its the rough and tumble, cruel and capricious free market dogma conservatives embrace.Chick-fil-A doesn't operate in a vacuum. Its money comes from customers who eat at Chick-fil-A outlets in malls, on college campuses and in corporate centers. We in the equality movement simply wish to inform those who do business with Chick-fil-A that actions have consequences.
In a petition, Equality Illinois is urging socially responsible business and institutional leaders across the country to challenge Chick-fil-A's discriminatory practices and end all relationships that enable the Chick-fil-A brand to operate on their premises.
Silly Manufactured outrage....that you engaged in?
No, I'm not outraged. I just enjoyed a nice lunch a couple of times. I think the entire issue of fags being upset because a guy spoke his opinion is pretty damn stupid but it did put Chick-Fil-A on the lunch menu. ~shrug~ LOL, Homos are some of the most intolerant people their are and I find it amusing that they are always claiming that people other then themselves are so intolerant. Pretty silly stuff.

By boycotting the purchasing of CFA sandwiches, gays are avoiding their money being used to fund organizations working against their interests. Which is the very opposite of the hypocrisy being claimed in the OP.
Sounds like they are exercising common sense to me.
