It's time to stop chicken sandwich bigotry. Chick-fil-A has been under attack ever since it's CEO Dan Cathy expressed support for "traditional marriage" and upset a large portion of the LGBTQIA community. Perhaps at the time the outrage was understandable with the same-sex marriage issue on four state ballots but to continue the hate over a company that has always been rooted in traditional, biblical values is ridiculous.
Same-sex marriage is the law now. Period. The chicken sandwich can no longer hurt anyone so if the outrage continues, it's just an excuse to continue pulling the victim card where no actual harm exists. Yet, the war on Chick-fil-A continues - right here in Texas where the liberal majority in charge of San Antonio are taking votes to shut the company's doors in popular locations, like the San Antonio airport.
City officials aren't talking about how to improve the economy, much like Houston did with it's gender neutral public restroom debacle. No they are spinning their wheels to appease those who simply don't like a business rooted in Christian values - the worse kind of bigotry because it could strip franchise owners of their businesses and employees of jobs, not to mention the public of a delicious chicken sandwich.
Despite all the backlash and protest, Chick-fil-A has steadily risen in the fast-food market and now sits comfortably among America's top 3 favorites.
