Today at Chick-Fil-A stores throughout the country, same-sex couples are expected to turn out heavily to protest company president and COO Dan Cathy's comments supporting "the biblical definition of the family unit" — as well as the fast food company's money trail leading to anti-civil rights initiatives, including Focus on the Family and bogus "gay therapy" programs. As the official National Same Sex Kiss Day at Chick Fil A Facebook page sarcastically notes, "August 3rd is National Same Sex Kiss Day at Chick Fil A to say a big 'Thank you' to the company for their support of love, equality, and the really definition of marriage."
Although it should go without saying, Mr. Cathy does have the right to put forth whatever harmful point of view he wants. That's his constitutional right. We are all aware of this, yes? However, and this is where some on the far-right get confused, the good people of the United States are then allowed to respond in protest. That's how that nifty First Amendment doohickey works. Anyway, if you would like to french kiss inside of a fast food restaurant, today you're golden. Just remember to order stuff or else risk being tossed out for loitering. Have... fun?
In related Chick-fil-A news, a cheeky petition has called for the company to only serve the straight chickens, while misguided vandals in Torrance, Calif. painted "tastes like hate" on the wall of a Chick-fil-A.
