Chick-fil-A busted doing damage control

[Rick Modena]

I would bet $100 that Facebook girl was a plant to make the company look bad. Chick-Fil-A Corporate would NEVER do something so obvious with so little upside and so much downside.

Never?

[quikag]

Never?

Well, it's highly unlikely, like unfathomable that Corporate or their PR firm would ever approve or authorize something so stupid and obvious. The owner of the company offering his unscripted personal opinions is one thing, but intentionally creating fake (and easily proven fake) people on FB to refute jabs against the company just isn't going to happen in the real world.

August 1st is Chick-Fil-A support day. I'll be there probably for breakfast and lunch or dinner. Dan Cathy owns an extremely successful private company and has never hid his Christian faith both personally and professionally. He expressed his personal opinion, but their director of HR (I think) affirmed they are an equal opportunity employer as required under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. If they weren't, you would be well aware of all the lawsuits being filed.

It's amazing the vitriol that comes from the militant wing of the gay rights movement. I guess the 1st amendment is irrelevant to them if it conflicts with their beliefs.

I have no issue with Chick-Fil-A coming out as anti-gay or confirming that they donate to anti-gay causes. I'm actually glad they have, and I wish more companies would be more transparent in their beliefs and the causes they support. It makes it easier to decide where not to spend my money.

Never?

Nope! They're too busy discussing why Jesus would prefer waffle fries.

I agree 100%. I still shop at Target, but I was pretty disappointed to hear they have such a pro-gay agenda.

Who doesn't prefer those tasty waffle fries?

Hahahahahaha!

While I don't agree 100% with what they believe in, I am 100% behind them being able to say how they feel.

I still shop at Target, but I support marriage equality.

[talisman]

lmao!

This world is getting more ridiculous by the minute.

I hate those waffle fries they are too thick, too greasy, and too salty.

I will not support any business that chooses not to conduct business on a Sunday.

Where did you buy your last new car from?

Why does a company owner standing up for what he believes in make him a bigot?

Obviously they are lieing about the toy.

I could care less if a company supports or does not support a political issue. They should never even be questions about that as it does not matter. I am glad to see a company stand up for what their owners believe in. Whether or not you agree with them does not matter.. the fact that they are willing to stand up for their personal beliefs, even though it might hurt his bottom dollar, demands respect. Most business owners would just do the politically correct thing and ignore their beliefs in order to make another buck. The lieing about the toy is a whole different issue.

If I was the owner of Chick-fil-a I simply would have said... The toy has been pulled because that company does not believe in the right to free speech and standing up for what you believe in.
