Honestly one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen.

So in case you didn't know (aka been sleeping under a rock), it was discovered that Chik Fil A was using a portion of its profits to support anti kechua marriage bills.  Because kechua marriage is one of the few subjects that liberal females in High School actually understand, it's caused an enormous uproar of people boycotting Chik Fil A. As this boycott is being driven by complete idiots, Chik Fil A obviously isn't in any business danger. But I find it ridiculous that people are protesting one another's FREEDOM OF SPEECH and, while I really doubt many of the people even involved realizing it, are also arguing against Capitalism and voting with the dollar. Not that there's anything wrong that (that's a whole other subject) but again these people don't even realize that's what they're saying, hahaha.

Yes, people protesting an organization that actively funds the suppression of a group of citizens because this organization's president's religion tells him to do so is stupid.  We should all just let government sanctioned discrimination be the norm without any protest.

Frankly, I don't want to have to research every business and find out what they support or don't support.  If I like a business, I shop/eat at that business.    Undecided

It's a violation of freedom of speech. And it's not Chik Fil A that is supporting it, it's one highly paid employee of CFA that takes money out of his personal salary.

How is it a violation of free speech?  People are boycotting a business that they don't agree with.  They're not, say, pushing legislation that would limit Chik Fil A's rights or anything.

Do you honestly think boycotts are an affront to freedom of speech?

It's quite frankly one of the few things people are doing right at this point in time.

... And?

He's lobbying for discriminatory legislation with money he makes from this organization.  People don't like that so they're boycotting Chik Fil A.  In fact, they're the ones using their freedom of speech to do so.  They're not limiting his rights in any way, and certainly not Chik Fil A's.

by that logic every single business across america that employs a homophobe should be boycotted.

and i dont think you understand. while again, not that it holds any weight, these kids are trying to get him to stop spending his money on aforementioned legislation.

Would people boycott an individual who spent his money trying to legalize slavery? I'd lean towards yes.
