nbc link quote:Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, a Baptist minister, declared Wednesday "Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day" to support a business "whose executives are willing to take a stand for the Godly values." Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, who like Huckabee ran for president as a darling of social conservatives, joined the cause along with religious leaders. People have been asking me if I was going to eat chick fil a. I'm not the most enlightened person in the world when it comes to the whole GLBT movement, but I don't feel right with giving money to an organization that treats people like poo poo just because they are different. Does anybody know a reputable GLBT group that takes donations online, and does anybody know any good links that have a good sources of GLBT info? edit. made the donation to glaad on recommendation.

All this talk made me want some Chik fil a' for lunch today. I tried to go by at 11 am but the line which is usually long was rediculous. No parking spots and the drive through wrapped around the building and nearly out to the intersection where you get to the highway feeder road. Anyway way to go GLB movement for all the free chik fil a' advertisement.

I got hired at CFA the day Dan Cathy said his nonsense. I quit shortly thereafter because money is nice, but gently caress a company that donates to hate. Also, if you saw how their food was made you'd never eat there again. So much butter...

I was going to stop eating at Chick-fil-A, but then I remembered that their food was really good. So instead I'm going to donate the cost of my food to an LGBT activist group every time I do.

The money you give Chik-Fil-A goes to hate groups and destructive 'ex-gay therapy.'

It does make me kind of sad that everyone is focusing on Dan Cathy's remarks when in fact the company has donated money to groups that are straight-up classified as hate groups by the Southern Poverty Law Center. I mean I'm glad Chick-fil-A's stance on this is getting noticed (and wished it was getting a more negative reception), but I've talked to some stupid people who are supporting them because free speech or something. But it's not just a matter of free speech. By giving your money to that company you are supporting actual hate groups. If you're looking for a GLBT rights organization to support, GLAAD or the Human Rights Campaign are probably the big two. The Jim Henson Company donated the revenue from their partnership with Chick-fil-A (before ending it over this) to GLAAD.

I am however neutral, and Chick-fil-A food is worth twice what it costs to eat with a non-dirty conscience. (I'm actually more than neutral, because much less than the full cost of my meal gets donated to Exodus)

Peven Stan posted:give some money to human rights campaign I think this is an awesome idea, and like that goon who got banned via donations to Japan, spite can be a pretty good motivator. Also, I really don't understand the whole "BUT CHICK-FIL-A SO GOOD" thing. It's fast food, not five star cuisine, and yes I have had it when I've visited the states.

But whatever - that's not the point. The quality or lack thereof of their product is not the issue. Don't give money to organizations that support hate groups unless you want to support those hate groups.

Chick-fil-a is expensive and half the time the chicken is smaller than the bun. I don't eat there on that basic principle, plus it's all fried and really greasy (and I'm sure the grilled chicken isn't much better for you). I don't even need the hate to turn me off of it.

"I support the freedom of this country unless that freedom involves two consensual adults doing something my book tells me is wrong then maybe not so much freedom for them." Nope. Still doesn't make sense. You could put this on a telephone pole and slam my car into it at 75MPH and I still wouldn't be able to wrap my brain around it.

Man, everyone's been giving me the recipe for their chicken sandwich but what I want is the recipe for those little chicken biscuit things they serve at breakfast. It is the only decent breakfast fast food meal and I really don't want to buy from them.

Americans are slowly becoming generation goon where nothing can taste good without excessive butter, bacon, and salt. It's a loving shame. And gently caress Dan Cathy - you run a loving business, not a soap box. You have thousands of people who work for you and you put their paycheques in jeopardy every time you say something stupid you selfish prick.

Ho boy, here comes another 15 page thread where pathetic unprincipled goons rationalize supporting hate groups by claiming ITS THE BEST CHICKEN EVER. If you can't quit cramming greasy chicken bits into your maw despite the fact that money goes to support groups attempting to make the lives of your fellow citizens worse you're basically a morally bankrupt glutton and I hope you get heart disease from your delicious chicken.

God, the right is so loving annoying when it comes to this. I saw a political cartoon yesterday with a chicken that was ran over on the road with Chick-fil-A written on it, and the truck that ran it over said "Tolerance" or some poo poo. Apparently it's intolerance if you're against other groups' intolerance. There aren't any Chick-fil-A restaurants in Milwaukee, but they do taste good, so I guess I'll just have to try one of those online copycat recipes to get my fix, and I won't be supporting hate groups either.
