Waiting in line to eat food is just oppressive. I won't be participating in this tyrannical movement to keep the people down.
DOMINATED BY OBSESSION OF POWER AND LUST, LED BY UNWRITTEN RULES FROM CLINICAL BIRTH TO CLINICAL DEATH. ASK THE EPITHET OF GOD! IT STILL IS DECEPTION, NO IDEOLOGY, NO PROGRESS; NOTHING. THE WORLD IS SMOTHERED IN ABSURDITY.

No. A few mayors expressed their personal opinion Chick-Fil-A would be unwelcome to expand into their cities. They did not prohibit them from setting up shop, they are fully within their legal rights to try and see if a franchise in Boston or Chicago would succeed.

They cite GLAAD (SO neutral :roll: ), the New Civil Rights Movement (INCREDIBLY neutral :roll: ), Good As You (Stone cold SWITZERLAND neutrality :roll: ), Truth Wins Out (MAN THAT's NEUTRAL :roll: ),

The article/editorial was written by the founder and editor of The News Civil Rights Movement. He's citing himself

They cited Forbes, once, who said discrimination may exist. That was the ONLY neutral source in the entire article

Has more sources then just liking to a Fox News article, which rarely link to any outside sources.

Thus your complaint is a false equivalency.

Moreover, who do think is going to cover this issue other then movements connected to gay rights?

Forbes has a strong right bent, therefore its acknowledgment of something criticizing some thing on the right is strong support.

Because you'd take FOX seriously if they cited Heritage Foundation, EXXON's latest reports, and the Weekly Standard? That's tantamount to what these people are doing, and you'd be horribly dishonest if you look at your monitor with a straight face and type "GLAAD/NCRM/GAY(good as you)/TWO (Truth wins out) aren't biased"

If this was a movie you know someone would spike the chicken sandwich with a virus that kills gays just for shits and giggles.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

Food for thought: If it's okay for neighborhoods or cities to use zoning laws to keep strip clubs out because strip clubs are icky to them, why is it not okay to do the same thing with fast food restaurants?

The mayors of Boston and Chicago, I think the two cities were, put a ban on Chick Fil A because of the owner's beliefs.
