We’re talking about working for CFA, not KKK. The problem is that you’re consumed by hate, and, like Adam Smith, you are showering that hate on innocent people. If you have a problem with CFA, it’s with the management, not the restaurant employees. ---

So working for one group that uses its resources to destroy minorities is unacceptable, but for another is noble. Why? ---

What the fuck does the hourly employee have to do with how CFA uses it’s resources? It’s asinine to expect someone to quit gainful, legal employment because the company president spends _his_ money in a way you disagree with. ---

The fucking corporation donated its money, not the CEO personally, which is the whole motherfucking reason this is an issue now, you lying sack of shit. I’m guessing you don’t really have much of a problem with the “kill the gays” bill, either. ---

So, once again, people who “just don’t want to see the poor cashiers yelled at” and “don’t want to politicize chicken” are quickly revealed as being willing to defend the Family Research Council, lie about the exact issue that sparked the entire situation, and basically go to bat for homophobes up to and including people who want to exterminate gays as a class. Tell me again how extreme and unreasonable some guy who used strong language in a restaurant is? ---

Bingo. You got it. The corporation did it!!! Now, it’s just a small step to understanding that the employees of that corporation are guilty of nothing but working for a living. Rein in your hate and get your head out of your ass and this may still work out. ---

> [@Condescending\_Robot](#): > > Screenshots of the federally submitted lobbying report are in the article, you dumbfuck. i cant see what the document says, or even what the document is, since I’m out of town and on my iPhone. The resolution is terrible. I politely asked you for a cite, since I didn’t see anything in the article other than the author’s assertion. Your response to my request was to copy and paste the same assertion, while failing to mention any relevant wording contained within the scanned document. When asked to clarify, you called me a dumbfuck. Maybe you could try again, acting like a halfway decent person this time. ---

Their actions do not support their claims and why you would ever give them such an extraordinary benefit of the doubt is beyond me. There’s no benefit of the doubt being given here. There’s nothing to doubt. You’re right–they lobbied to reject the resolution. I didn’t say otherwise. They also stated their _reasons_ for rejecting it. Their stated reason is, the resolution calls homosexuality a right. That is what they don’t like about the resolution. So, they said, it should be rejected. From this we have no reason to conclude they are for the execution of homosexuals. If there were a resolution extending the right to marry to homosexual couples, and also claiming that everyone has a right to peanut butter sandwiches every day, and if you were to reject that resolution, should I then conclude you are anti-SSM? ---

> [@Condescending\_Robot](#): > > I’ll go out and get a job converting chicken sandwiches into dead gay people so that I meet with your moral approval. You’re the worst kind of moron. I got into a discussion about this with someone on a board I moderate. I claimed the same thing you did, and the other person told me I was lying & pointed me to an article written by a FRC spokesperson that said what Frylock did earlier. If you have some kind of citation that shows the FRC rep is lying, I would love to lob it back at the guy on the other board. I am firmly against Chick-fil-A, very much for gay marriage, and have argued that side on this board numerous times. So, I’m asking you for the cite again for the 4th time. Just tell me what the doc is and what it says, and you can go back to frothing at the mouth. ---

> [@Morgenstern](#): > > n/m getting nowhere. On the one hand, they want to kill me. On the other hand, I don’t like that. Since we both commit the apparently cardinal sin of “hate” by not liking something (they don’t like my continued breathing, I don’t like their attempts to murder me) we’re morally equal and the truth is in the middle. Great logic from whichever dumbass group (Christians, the sort of liberal “allies” who are all for gay rights unless it requires ever doing anything or opposing anyone, concern trolls) you represent. ---
