Adam Smith apologizes:
Adam M. Smith Apologizes to Chick-Fil-A Employee - YouTube
A day late and a dollar short, but still. Good on him. He just went up a few pegs in my book.
And about the people sending him death threats: Really? Death threats? Unacceptable. There is no excuse for that. None. Maybe folks need to tone it down a bit. Not just about this nonsense, but about life in general. Just my $.02.
MickeyShane: Here in Colorado, Chic-fil-A doesn't charge you for the water. They give it away free to anyone who asks (even if they don't need free water and they're just being jerks about it). One of the local franchisees will even feed you if your hungry and don't have the means, so long as you don't make a habit out of it. Also, in our local news, they spent about 10 seconds talking about the appreciation day (with no mention of freedom of speech, which was what it WAS all about), and spent the other 50 seconds interviewing some lesbian. You should watch the 9News stream out of Denver, you'd love it.
