Chick-Fil-A Has 'Record-Setting Day' thanks to countless social conservatives showing up for "Chick- - Polidicks

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;37059039]You guys act like all the money goes to some gay-killing protest group.[/QUOTE] as said they actually literally did this would be hilarious if it weren't so sad

[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;37059551]Here's an idea Lankist. Maybe you should get a fucking dictionary before you post. I know misusing words to insult people is kind of you and Sanius' thing but you don't look like any less of an idiot.[/QUOTE] Hello third fucking semantics post in three minutes. How is it you always end up on this side of the argument if you aren't homophobic? I've only ever seen you defending people who hate gays, never once defending gays themselves.

guys i don't understand why democracy in america isn't working

Go home and make your own fucking chicken if you like it that much.

[QUOTE=Lankist;37059575]Hello third fucking semantics post in three minutes. How is it you always end up on this side of the argument if you aren't homophobic?[/QUOTE] So me knowing the literal definition of the word "homophobic" and pointing it out makes me a homophobe Yep. Makes about as much fucking sense as the other garbage you post.

i love how facepunch is totally for whatever is right as long as they get their chicken and their vidya

[QUOTE=thisispain;37059593]guys i don't understand why democracy in america isn't working[/QUOTE] It's because the voting base is filled with a bunch of illiterate morons. Whenever somebody begs the question "Can X number of people be wrong?" The answer is not only a resounding "YES," but usually when that many people agree on something they ARE wrong.

[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;37059599]So me knowing the literal definition of the word "homophobic"[/QUOTE] maybe this isn't clear enough so i'll make it bold: [b] no one cares what the literal definition is[/b]

[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;37059599]So me knowing the literal definition of the word "homophobic" and pointing it out makes me a homophobe Yep. Makes about as much fucking sense as the other garbage you post.[/QUOTE] The literal definition doesn't fucking matter. Discrimination is not a literal fucking topic. Again: If you aren't homophobic, how come you're always on the homophobic side of the issue?

[QUOTE=Lankist;37059490]Brought those gays in Uganda back to life, I'm sure. [editline]2nd August 2012[/editline] No. Self-centered is being willfully ignorant. Homophobic is "I know this is funding lynch mobs and I don't give a fuck, I want to shove fucking chicken into my face."[/QUOTE] Care to source your accusation that Chick Fil A is funding those anti-gay laws in Uganda? I don't recall hearing that.

[QUOTE=Lambeth;37059555]It's not the fact that he expressed his opinion that's the problem, it's the fact that they donate money to hate groups. Would you do the same if they donated to nazis or the kkk?[/QUOTE] If the Nazis and the KKK were in the positions they are now (i.e. still a bunch of bigots, but not actively beating/killing people, at least in America), and I felt the service was deserving of my money, then yes. That's the thing with free speech and the freedom to do what you want with your money.

[QUOTE=Lankist;37059561]Same old fucking semantics. "I'm not homophobic because look at this dictionary!" Apathetic hatred is a thing.[/QUOTE] i'm a bisexual who lives dead center in the middle of a backwoods town of entirely christian white people and i'm afraid to come out to anyone in the area due to how fast word spreads and how the entire community might view me. most of the adults and their little parrot kids are very bloodthirsty conservatives who are actually supporters of chick-fil-a because of their views on homosexuality and spout bible quotes about how homosexuality is wrong. because of this, i've come to view homophobia as a very active thing. maybe my views are wrong. i'm willing to admit i don't know shit.

[QUOTE=Lambeth;37059555]It's not the fact that he expressed his opinion that's the problem, it's the fact that they donate money to hate groups. Would you do the same if they donated to nazis or the kkk?[/QUOTE] hey man the nazis would lobby for people to kill ME i mean that's completely different

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;37059499]That's not donating, that's buying the best fucking fast food chicken ever. Donating is what those rich people do.[/QUOTE] So funding hate groups is excused because it's "just THE best chicken, I MUST stuff my fucking mouth" Not cool.

[QUOTE=SPESSMEHREN;37059619]Care to source your accusation that Chick Fil A is funding those anti-gay laws in Uganda?

[QUOTE=Lankist;37059618]The literal definition doesn't fucking matter. Again: If you aren't homophobic, how come you're always on the homophobic side of the issue?[/QUOTE] I never have defended the homophobic side of the issue. I just think misusing words to insult people to try and prove your point is retarded. You will never see any intelligent person use that tactic.

[QUOTE=SPESSMEHREN;37059619]Care to source your accusations that Chick Fil A is funding those things in Uganda? I don't recall hearing that.[/QUOTE] It's on the same returns that started this whole mess. Specifically, they gave money to Exodus International, a hate group which goes abroad and tells foreign legislators to kill gays. Fuckin' google it, that's what this whole thing is about. Their 'charitable' contributions.

Honestly, i don't give a fuck about this anymore. Each restaurant is franchise owned and the owner is entitled to their own beliefs. Chick fil a has great food and isn't staffed by ghetto workers that don't want to be there and their establishments are almost always exceptionally clean. I'll keep going there regardless of my sexual orientation. EDIT: Okay, i must admit despite me doing prior research i actually didn't turn up anything like the mass donations to antigay groups.

[QUOTE=Lankist;37059490] No. Self-centered is being willfully ignorant. Homophobic is "I know this is funding lynch mobs and I don't give a fuck, I want to shove fucking chicken into my face."[/QUOTE] If Chick Fil A was literally the only source of chicken for 50 miles I wouldn't blame them but come on it's mediocre fast food chicken. Get that shit somewhere else.

[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;37059649]I never have defended the homophobic side of the issue.[/QUOTE] Except for right now and about a half dozen times before. Yeah, okay. You're not a homophobe. You always just side with them on every god damn issue.

[QUOTE=Meller Yeller;37059649] You will never see any intelligent person use that tactic.[/QUOTE] pff like you'd know that

People have died because of them.

[QUOTE=thisispain;37059646]i like free speech and the freedom to do what you want with your money it doesn't mean that i can't be angry and depressed when you waste it on making the world worse[/QUOTE] And I never said you can't get angry. The whole freedom thing goes both ways, that's why while the whole appreciation things goes on, a bunch of protests are taking place as well.

And no, "I can't help it, the chicken is just too good and it's always a clean place" is not an excuse.
