valarltdChik-Fil-A is a fairly popular restaurant in my neck of the woods, and many of my friends look at me askance when I tell them I don't eat there. The food is good. The prices are reasonable. And sweet potato waffle fries!
Why don't I eat there?
In 2009, Chik-Fil-A donated $1.7 million to anti-gay organizations, including Focus on the Family, the Alliance Defense Fund, Exodus International and The Eagle Forum.
This is double what they donated to these causes in the years 2003-2008, combined.
Yes, it's their money. Yes, they can do with it as they see fit.
Me, I adhere to the adage "Do not give the enemy bullets. They will shoot you."
Giving money to a group that is anti-gay and anti-woman is giving the enemy bullets.
