Can we talk?

Chick Fil'A

  I love gay people. I love Chick Fil'A. I don't ask all my friends to like each other or to agree. It keeps life interesting. I intend to keep on befriending both.
    I think it would be great if a group of gay people took a Pro Chick Fil'A stand. Their platform would read something like, "We don't care what the CEO's personal feelings are. As long as he doesn't practice discrimination against customers, we'll buy his food when we feel like it. And we want his respect for our feelings. Neither party suppresses the other's opinions or values. Live and let live."
    If we boycott all the business people that have ideas or prejudices we don't like, we'd have to boycott almost every business person in the country. No one is 100% for all the things that are important to us. If we just boycotted places that don't give good service, we'd stay away from half the places we patronize.
    If women stayed away from business where the directors had chauvinistic ideas, the economy would suffer. If we knew all their political and religious views. we'd have to change the way we do business.
    So let's stand up for freedom of speech, even with we disagree with their words.
