Chick-fil-a?

I am this close to posting my status: Lisa appreciated chicken from Raising Cane's tonight, served with a side of Texas Toast and bigotry-free.

You should totally repost that.

of course the boycott is free speech he just doesn't like it because it is causing traffic problems and getting in the way of him and his family

How does that even make sense? It's not the boycotters who are forming lines around Chick-fil-a and interfering with traffic...In fact I've heard of a lot more people supporting Chick-fil-a than boycotting it...

Talk about your First World Problems, when you feel the need to defend a multi-million dollar fast food industry.

I'm not even going to try to understand his complaints. It really is such privileged nonsense.

Technically. It's mostly about free speech at the moment. My cousin is claiming he supports gay marriage but that the Chick-fil-a boycott is violating the free speech and religious freedom of the Chick-fil-a president. So I went off on him about free speech doesn't mean one person gets to say what he wants and no one else gets to react to it and he doesn't have to suffer the consequences of it and that economic boycotts are a long recognized form of free speech in this country.
