The protests Friday come two days after hundreds of thousands of customers showed their support for the restaurant during an "Appreciation Day." Chick-fil-A says it set a one-day sales record on Wednesday.
The flap began last month when Chick-fil-A president Dan Cathy told a religious publication that the company backed "the biblical definition of a family."
Herndon Graddick, the president of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, says Cathy has every right to voice his opinion but he should get to know the people that he's speaking out against.

"Shout outs, name calling, boisterous yelling, made up outrageous in insults & claims"? Is it just liberals you're talking about, or are you including Sen. Joseph McCarthy, Rep. Allen West, Rep. Michele Bachmann, Rep. Newt Gingrich, and Jimmy Swaggart (not to mention the Westboro church)? They've all done it.
We adults can act so childish sometimes.
And as for loving Hitler, et al.: yep, I'd have loved them, too. Jesus did, and in Matthew's Gospel, He tells us "love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you."
certain, if you want chicken you need a hen and a rooster."
let me have it, I wont read your responses anyway because I could care less what you small minded, ignorant, hate filled people think of me or what I right. It used to be fun to come and make fun of you but it isn't even worth the time any more most days. Those who know the least cream the loudest as we see eevry day here on the Times comments section
Some further perspective with a pesky factual observation: If I said all homosexuals are liberals, I would be factually incorrect; as there are some who espouse conservative principles and support conservative candidates. However, if I said all homosexuals are deviant sodomites, I would be factually correct, as evidenced by their common behavior and lifestyle (unless you can produce evidence of chaste celibacy in that community) Good luck with that one!
With those facts in mind, I am expected by the left to sanction same sex marriage. When I decline and express my belief in traditional marriage only, I am suddenly intolerant, hateful, and a bigot. The double standard is obvious, even blatant, unless one refuses to honesty observe the uproar from the left, which was my point to begin with in this discussion.
A blogger friend of mine has summed it up this way:
If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn’t buy one. If a liberal doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.
If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn’t eat meat. If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned.
If a conservative doesn’t like a talk show host, he changes the channel. If a liberal doesn’t like a particular talk show host, he demands they be shut down.
If a conservative is a non-believer, he refrains from church. A liberal non-believer prefers or demands all mention of God silenced.
Liberals are intolerant of other points of view, much more so than conservatives. Here’s your link:

(But I still love you)
Have a great weekend.
(Back at you, I think)
Furthermore, those on your side of the issue, with the rampant support of the media and Democrat party, constantly instruct us that we must accept the agenda of those who views are diametrically opposed to our own; and to not do so is the pinnacle of intolerance. Yet when Dan Cathy speaks his mind in support of traditional marriage, Oh the outcry and demonstration of intolerance from the left! Hypocrites!!!
Were there homosexuals who attended the Chick-fil-A appreciation day in support of the company? Most defiantly yes! I saw interviews with a few. They like the others were there to champion free speech and enjoy a tasty chicken sandwich. They disagreed with Mr. Cathy’s views, but supported his free speech rights. I will apply the same broad brush to them as well and paint them good Americans (even though I consider their lifestyle abhorrent and their political views aberrant) BTW: Chick-fil-A appreciation day, an undeniable success. The anti-Chick-fil-A kiss-in protest, epic fail!!!
