#ChickFilA

Just a couple examples of the enormous influence corporations are having on our society and government —— The CEO of #ChickFilA makes news by wielding his corporation against marriage equality. The CEO of #Amazon responds by throwing $2.5 million to an organization to support marriage equality. These issues are blasted on the news front as if they were the most pressing issues of the day. Not to belittle those who are fervent about who’s sleeping with whom, but our country has other major issues being vastly more influenced by corporate dictates including the entire process of electing our government. Sadly our people will have to live with the decisions our so-called “representatives” make based upon their corporate affiliations or conversely —— the businesses they will allow to flourish. This is getting too messed up.

#ProtestCapitalism
This is a small example of the homophobic nonsense I was talking about on #Facebook. I consider the person who shared this to be a friend. I didn’t comment because it would only hurt that person’s feelings —— but why post this nonsense? How does comparing the homophobia of #ChickFilA to the homophobia of Saudi Arabia make any sense? Should we be disappointed we don’t execute homosexuals in America? Or does it mean since we don’t actually kill them it is OK for us to deny them the same rights and privileges of everyone else. So it is OK for Chick-fil-A to spend millions to hurt gays and lesbians because they really should have their heads chopped off? WTF?

So I put this on my Blog because I simply can’t remain silent while people tacitly approve of killing gay people. I know that is not the point they are trying to make, as if it would be ludicrous to consider not doing business with Saudi Arabia —— but isn’t that a little backwards? We should be boycotting ANYBODY who advocates harm because of their hate, bigotry —— or their religion.

People camping out for a chance to win 52 (1 a week for a year!) free greasy chicken sandwiches? And presumably most of these people can vote? #Local #ProtestCapitalism #ChickFilA

First 100 get free Chick-fil-A for a year

I don’t know, #ChickFilA sandwiches are pretty good--I wouldn’t mind a free one every week

I would definitely take Texas Roadhouse over #ChickFilA, even though I do like chicken, haha

I’ve never been to Popeye’s. I don’t even know if there
is one around here. I can’t imagine why people stand in
line for hours for a chicken sandwich because they saw
it on the Internet. We are a nation in decline.

As a protest against #ChickFilA and their anti-LGBTQ stance.
There is one in E.Peoria, next to Hardees by Harbor Freight.

Heh! Hi Michael!
I guess I forgot about the #ProtestCapitalism. Presuming a
company that pays minimum wage to employees but doesn’t prejudge
on the basis of sexual preference is marginally better I guess.

The Regressives were all over businesses like #ChickFilA and #HobbyLobby doing their part to alter legislation ——

Probably buys his art supplies from #HobbyLobby
and eats at #ChickFilA.

In 2014, Samuel Truett Cathy, the homophobic billionaire founder of the Chick-fil-A restaurant chain, died in suburban Atlanta at age 93. #ProtestCapitalism #ChickFilA

One of several robber barons who wielded his homophobia against people.

Just another reason to avoid #ChickFilA.
