Typical conservative Pursecution complex.

What does any of this have to do with freedom of speech? As far as I know, the Supreme Court has not included opening restaurants as expressions of constitutionally protected speech. Although, you never know after Citizens United. City officials are well within their rights to block a private company from opening locations within their cities. The fact that its concerned with the Chick-fil-A's guy's imbecilic comments about marriage is immaterial.

I'm certain you would claim that blocking restaurants owned by black people also would be immaterial to any accusation of racists.

Besides religious bigotries, what other prejudices do you claim are immaterial to government discrimination?

Oh, please link to your messages calling for President Obama to be censored for his stating opposition to gay marriage for years.

Sure...theres also the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman thing, Luna's spanking du joir, I think a few on Madonna, the latest bout of gun control threads, and threads about Romneys words which may or may not be insensitive to someone based on how they are spoken. At least we arent spending too much time on how businesses are being built by the village.

Nothing on the current administrations record on unemployment, debt, etc.

And just how is allowing chick-fil-a to open a location forcing religious beliefs on anyone? If you disagree with their position....just don't freaking eat there

I'm not following your statement. I'm not saying they can't open a Chick-fil-A. My response was to NP.
 
I lurv chik-fil-a chicken I must say.


Next evolution of this is hilarious though:


Chick-fil-A braces for protests, same-sex ‘kiss-in’

The still-simmering controversy sparked by the Chick-fil-A president's public comments against same-sex marriage is set to reignite this week, as more than 500,000 people say they will join former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee's "Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day" on Wednesday by "simply showing up and eating" at one of the company's 1,600 restaurants, while protesters backed by gay and lesbian groups plan to participate in a same-sex "kiss-in" on Friday at the same stores.​

A same sex kiss in at the mall food court while parents are eating with their young children? That's very likely going to lose more support than it gathers.

Sadly...lipstick lesbians are not the norm. And why did you omit hot gay guys? A little bit of homophobia leaking out?

Yep. It's icky. I'm all for it happening though. Icky doesn't bother me. It's my ick... not theirs. Even straight women acknowledge that the female body is beautiful. Us guys merely have a utilitarian body. Two beauties kissing or two work-horses?.... lol
