Muppets owner Lisa Henson severs ties with Chick-Fil-A over SSM

I don't see why Lisa Henson has to be such a hate-filled, intolerant, disrespectful bigot that she would deny someone service over their religious views ;)

I'm more upset about them creating socialist toys that would choke babies in their sleep. ;)
 
I guess my point is....

If you're doing it as a personal thing based on a personal decision, no issues there.

If you're doing it as part of some grander "cause", arguing about it with people to tell them why they're wrong or why you're so much more right, trying to make it up as some principled stand on your part against bigotry, insulting or degrading or attacking those that don't agree with boycotting it, or other such things then that's the point where my ability to excuse your ignorance and selective outrage because that's the point where, to me, you're in it for the attention and the conflict and the self importance and ability to be be participating in the movement of hte moment then it is an honest to goodness simple stand against something you dislike.

Don't say that, it may cause the government to put a stopsale on Muppet related stuff like they're doing with Buckyballs and magnets (Geeks want our damn magnetic table toys damnit...****ing Magnets, how do they work!)

What is a "Buckyball"?

Well, the Muppets have a long track record of tolerating inter-species relationships (a frog and a pig?). So it shouldn't surprise anyone that gays don't bother them.

Think Geek

Bunches of Rare earth magnets that are enjoyed by Nerds to do pointless things like...well, this

Once again, completely nonresponsive.

Do you acknowledge the FACT (not opinion, not feeling, not impression) that no one is telling (with or without force of law) the CFA owner to whom or what he can (MAY, actually) or can't (MAY NOT) donate money?

YES

or

NO


If you had read my earlier post, I said it was illegal for the mayors to ban Chick and they knew it. But it didn't stop them from saying exactly what they "would have done" had they the power to do it.

IMO, iF the mayors had had the power to ban Chick, they would.

I've also stated that the money/support he gives to any organization is his business. It ain't my money . . . . nor anyone elses.

The owers problem, and the only reason everyone is in a tizzy is he didn't lie or "mis-speak" or "mis-communicate" or all the other wordsmithing we us inorder to not say we flat out lied. He told the people/media where he gave his money and why. Had he lied, this "bug tussle" wouldn't have existed.


But for all those who want to boycott this business, again . . . . it's your right to do so. Knock yourself out.

Magic. It's just there in the air...
 
You (referring to Muciti) still haven't provided a Muslim business president putting forth similar comments as Cathy's, so I'm not expecting you to actually be able to supply an individual suggesting the boycott of "christian businesses"

He likely won't. Derailing and obfuscating is --based upon his posts-- a higher priority for him.

Not an answer to the question.

Congratulations on completely failing to answer a direct yes or no question. Your evasion and intellectual dishonesty is spectacular.

For reference, here's the question I posed to you:

The Henson company is run by a woman? That explains why nothing has happened since Farscape, hey that could explain why Farscape was cancelled!

...I actually don't even know how to respond to this. I thought about doing a *facepalm*, but I think this goes beyond that.
 
Enjoyed my Chick-fil-a sandwich yesterday.

I thought I'd detailed my point of view very well, not your point of view. Yet with everything I've posted you still can't find the answer to your question? Thanks anyway.

An answer to a yes/no question looks either like this:

"Yes"

or like this...

"No"

You provided neither.

Thanks for your backhanded acknowledgement that you have no intention of engaging anyone on an honest and rational basis (regardless of the content of your views).

To the troll file with you...

I think there's a bridge looking for you.

I think it is cmakaloz who has placed you under a bridge.



Now, now. No using a comic line you didn't come up with.

I really, really enjoyed my Chick sandwich yesterday. It tasted of Free Speech.
