Chick-fil-A president tweets anti-gay marriage tweet, then deletes it - Polidicks

[quote]NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — Chick-fil-A president Dan Cathy took to Twitter Wednesday to announce his disappointment with the Supreme Court’s decisions on same-sex marriage — but he deleted the tweet shortly afterward. It’s hard to make a social media post disappear, however. Several Twitter users took a screen shot of the tweet, which read: “Sad day for our nation; founding fathers would be ashamed of our gen. to abandon wisdom of the ages re: cornerstone of strong societies.”[/quote] [url]http://wtkr.com/2013/06/27/chick-fil-a-president-deletes-anti-gay-marriage-tweet/[/url]

Did the Founding Fathers even have an opinion on gay marriage?

Looks like it's round number 2 for Chik-Fil-A.

Yeah, well, the founding fathers also supported slavery and racism. I don't think they really have the upper ground in this argument.

[QUOTE=Desuh;41223814]Muh christian values Degeneracy! Muh slippery slope[/QUOTE] So homophobes talk like black guys?

[QUOTE=Jamsponge;41223765]Did the Founding Fathers even have an opinion on gay marriage?[/QUOTE] actually yes, originally the 2nd amendment was "you have the right to bear dongs"

[quote]Cathy told a newspaper last summer that Chick-fil-A is “very much supportive of the family — the biblical definition of the family unit.”[/quote] So he supports polygamy?

It's a sweet, twisted irony when homophobes are the ones who are too ashamed to voice their opinion.

[QUOTE=Boxbot219;41224128]It's a sweet, twisted irony when homophobes are the ones who are too ashamed to voice their opinion.[/QUOTE] I don't think he's ashamed of it, I think the company's PR guy hit him on the head with a phone book until the deleted the tweet.

He was born in a time where it wasn't accepted, of course he's going to be more resilient

[QUOTE=Ban Evasion Alt;41224009]So he supports polygamy?[/QUOTE] Or anything on this list: [IMG]http://bobcargill.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/biblical-marriage.jpg[/IMG]

people would probably thing the founding fathers were dicks if they met them today

[QUOTE] the biblical definition of the family unit[/QUOTE] They make it sound like it's something that can be bought in IKEA

[QUOTE=Van-man;41224230]They make it sound like it's something that can be bought in IKEA[/QUOTE] "What are all these extra parts?"

[QUOTE=Van-man;41224230]They make it sound like it's something that can be bought in IKEA[/QUOTE] Uh oh - this family unit came with two male-screw threads! [I]call the police[/I]

[QUOTE=Van-man;41224230]They make it sound like it's something that can be bought in IKEA[/QUOTE] and then you try putting your family together and the parts don't fit, something breaks, you get a splinter, and then everybody gets in a big fight and cries. then you take it back to the store and go pick up an old coffee table from uncle jimmy's house

[QUOTE=Jamsponge;41223765]Did the Founding Fathers even have an opinion on gay marriage?[/QUOTE] Lets ask them

who the cares what the founding father's would think even if you somehow did know what they'd disapprove of 300 years into the future. They're just some old farts that existed three centuries ago. I hate it when politically anybody says "wow what would our founding fathers think" they'd probably think that everyone involved in our system is a bunch of cunts [editline]28th June 2013[/editline] I mean, knowing what they would [I]actually[/I] thin is interesting but it's stupid for anyone to take regarding them seriously in terms of what matter's today.

[QUOTE=bravehat;41225111]"Mother of God, a horseless carriage!? And the music is so vulgar! Oh sweet lord now the carriage is jumping!

[QUOTE=Jamsponge;41223765]Did the Founding Fathers even have an opinion on gay marriage?[/QUOTE] Don't try to apply logic to this.

How about you focus on frying chicken and keep your political opinions to yourself

its embarrassing to work there when shit like this happens

Although some would argue to the death that they choose to be gay but I sympathize for those kinds of people cause it must be pretty smelly and dark where they have their head.
