[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will still eat there and bring my kids to play there.

It's one man's opinion on it.

What about all the workers that work there, that might be out of work because of this "boycott"...do you fault them for working there? If you have a friend that works there, will you defriend that friend because of it?

Honestly, I do fault them.  It's their choice to work for a company that actively opposes gay rights.  And if my friend worked there, I'd have to factor that into what I know about my friend -- that my friend has no problem working for a company that spends its money advancing bigoted causes.  Whether or not I'd "defriend" that friend would depend on the rest of our relationship.[/quote]

Oh, you total idiot. You would defriend someone because they work for a fast food restaurant whose owner has a belief that may not even be theirs? You are a Class A moron. Maybe people work there because they don't have any other good options. Maybe for someone with a family, it's nice to have Sundays guaranteed off which you might not have at other retail or restaurant jobs. I worked at a Chick-fil-A in college, and we employed gay people. Yes, gay people worked with me at this restaurant! Can you believe it? It must be so, so nice to live in a world where you can choose how to feed your family based on whether or not the company giving you a paycheck holds the exact same set of morals and beliefs as you.

Well, good morning to you too!  Please reread.  I specifically didn't say that I would "defriend" a friend who worked at Chick-fil-A.  I said that I would "factor that into what I know about my friend" and go from there.  That would include whether they were desperate for a job and this was all that was available, etc.  And you knwo what I'd do if, say, a gay friend worked at Chick-fil-A?  I would ask them why they worked there, and then I would listen to their answer.

I haven't been called a "Class A moron" in a while, though.  That was great :)[/quote]
