Jim Henson Company severs ties with Chik-Fil-A; CFA lies about their kids' meal toys.

I'm more shocked you people think chick fil a is actually good food.

You're in the minority here.

as compared to what? It's one of the better fast food restaurants. The only other fast food place I can think of on par with chik fil a is five guys

Even mcdonalds is better than chick fil a.

@above

So are you with this supporting because freedom of speech. You guy's seem to not understand why people are hating on the restaurant. It's one thing to speak your opinion about something, it's another to support a hate crime that essentially limit's and keeps us from moving on. Such as funding, large quantities to people against gay marriage.

Like most teenagers you just want to fight the media. Sorry princess'

hate crime? Being against same sex marriage isn't a "hate CRIME" it's just an opinion built off the foundation of a religious definition of marriage. Religion can make people have these kinds of ideas. I don't blame the person for that though. The founder of chik fil a grew up in a religious family, therefore, he has religious views.

But it is delicious. Now I'm hungry for some.

He funds organizations that specifically attack the idea. Foundations like the westboro church, although I cant verify it specifically to that organization. I wouldn't care personally, I hate the food, and he's entitled to his opinion, but the actions they take are not only unnecessary, but indirect attacks to their very consumers. Then they tried to cover it up. You're better off supporting nexon lmao

Until you know which organizations you can't claim that. This is like some CEO supporting anti abortion groups

never eaten there, never will, not cuz i read this, but cuz its evil (nothing specific just my uneducated opinion)

I never even hard of the 3 aforementioned restaurants besides mcdonalds.
Is that a bad thing?

This thread is ridiculous. If you actually do research and stop believing everything you read on the internet, then you would know that Chick-Fil-A isn't against gays. Just because the CEO of a company speaks out for male to female marriage doesn't mean the company itself supports the "anti-gay" agenda. I will still be eating at Chick-Fil-A. They appreciate my business just as much as the next guy.

CFA pays the bills. And Im a homo.

what a tweeeest.

God dammit...there is a Chik-Fil-A on my campus and it's pretty good. So torn whether I should continue my patronage.

Actually now that I read this, the so called "hating" companies, I haven't seen a real attack from them. Also reading chick fil a's policies they even hire equally. I'm still disheartened that they essentially fibbed to get out of the fire, but I don't see much wrong here now that I know who the company's they donate to are.

Just so you know... I am gay and I am a manager at a Chick-Fil-A.

I'd just like to put this here. All of my why. Both to the quote which is taking it tooo far, and all of the homophobic bigots.

I agree with him and some of the posts here.
Some of you are taking it too far.

Not disagreeing with it, it's very well valid. But a question that rose to me that entire article posed to me is; what if they just accepted Gay's getting married. What else could anyone hate on christianity about?

I certaintly can't name one..I think it's just a bigger deal because homosexuals are just considered secondary citizens in that regard, and it bothers me the church doesn't recognize that.

I just heard the full quote and remembered this post and jesus, talk about pushing your own agenda (not you; NewsBusters), “anyone who eats S*** Fil-A deserves to get the cancer that is sure to come from eating antibiotic filled tortured chickens 4Christ.”

Now, that's not entirely better and she has backed away from that extreme comment but it's on a whole different level from GET CANCER

There are pederasts in their community... some priests even justify it.
Some people still hate them for things that happened in the past.
People who make fun of others because they believe in something written in a book... which in some cases isn't entirely truth.
I don't know if the last two are really hate... but it seems intolerant to me.
