Have your fast food dining habits changed, in view of Chick Fil A's opposition to gay marriage?

Asked by elbanditoroso (33146points) July 26th, 2012

I used to go to Chick Fil A for lunch once a week when I was out running errands. Since their (rather dumb) announcement last week, I decide that they would no longer get my business. Why would I want to support a company whose social views are simply counter to my own?

I see no problem with their boss (Mr. Cathy) having his own views on a personal level – they want to close on Sunday, no problem.

But when they make these personal values into a corporate stance, it tells me that they have no issues with alienating people who don’t share their views. So they will get no more of my business.

Call it a boycott. If they feel my friends are not entitled to the same civil liberties than I have, then why would I support them?
