The basic issue is not with Chick-Fil-A's willingness to serve LGBTG people. On the contrary, they're happy to take money from anyone, including any gays who would darken their door.
Rather, their anti-LGBTG policies are related to a) hiring and b) who can own or manage a CFA franchise, as well as their funding of/contibuting to groups that have straight agendas. I have always liked their products, but my family and I won't go there anymore because of those policies.
Excluding them from the airport is probably the wrong course to take, as it is a publicly funded entity, but Ricer U, a private college, had a perfect right to excude anybody they wished, every bit as much a right as CFA has to limit their employment and ownership to straights, and I agree with their moral imperative.
Who cares TBH why not help some mom and pops open a business in the airport instead of having lucrative deals exclusively offered to big businesses. Colleges too.
As a side hustle I an going in tomorrow night to Chick Fal A and buying a shit ton of chicken sandwiches. I will set next to the order microphone in the drive through on Sunday afternoon and sling dep bitches.
I'm kinda in the mood for a chicken sandwich now myself. But since the lines at the nearest one to me will be incredibly long, I will go somewhere else.
I think Chick-fil-A will be just fine without this one store. Just more capital to open another somewhere else and make millions.
You're saying that a restaurant should have the right to not hire gay employees and to fund anti gay hate groups. By that token, you're creating a path for them to refuse black employees and to fund the KKK. Everything is a precedent, be careful what you support. Although I'm sure some of you would love that.
