No smiley this time. It was funny the first couple of times but now it's getting out of hand.

The Philadelphia City Council will consider a resolution condemning Chick-fil-A for what one city leader called “anti-American” attitudes that promote “hatred, bigotry and discrimination.”

City Councilman Jim Kenney sent a letter to Chick-fil-A president Dan Cathy telling him to “take a hike and take your intolerance with you.”

“My effort is to allow people to understand that in certain segments of corporate America there are folks who are using their dollars to promote hatred, bigotry and discrimination,” Kenney told Fox News.

He is introducing a resolution to “condemn this anti-American attitude of trying to deny civil liberties that every American enjoys.”

Kenney joined the mayors of Boston, Chicago and now San Francisco in blasting the Atlanta-based company for supporting a biblical definition of marriage – a union between one man and one woman.

Cathy told Baptist Press that he is “guilty as charged” when it comes to supporting traditional marriage.

Kenney said individuals who do not support gay marriage should understand there are consequences to their belief.

“If he really, truly believes what he believes, that is his right to do so,” he told Fox News. “But there is often a price to pay for that.”

Don't care, will continue to eat there.

If people expect me to boycott companies for having an opinion, they should also expect me to boycott cities for having them as well.

The closest one is in Erie, Pa. That's close to 100 miles away.

Too bad, I love chicken. I'm always looking for a new place to try.

Philly is a parasite living in, and off, what is otherwise a nice state. Every time someone mentions some new state tax or tax increase is being proposed, my first question is "So what does Philly want money for now?" We should just give it to New Jersey and be done with it.

So no manner of sheer asshattery that comes out of that place surprises me in the least.

I may just hop on the interstate and go to Erie and get me some CFA...the interstates that are still free to drive on, despite Philly pushing for a toll on them a couple/few years back to pay for their own city road improvements.

Yes, it is now anti-American to be anything but agreeable with opinions that aren't yours.

So much for the 1st amendment.

Don't be so quick to judge. Only half (generous) of people living in Filthadelphia like that shit hole, the rest of the state hates Philly.

I live in the Philly suburbs, and there are a couple Chik-fil-a's that border the city. One of them, which is RIGHT on the border, is the worst Chik-fil-a that I have ever eaten at do to the lackluster employees when the manager is not present. However, it still beats any McDonalds/Wendys/BK/etc that I have ever been in.

I might even dare to say that there is blatant racism in that Chikfila, but my food is always good so I'm not going to complain about them ignoring white people. (seriously, it's the Cheltenham Chik-fil-a, if anyone else eats there...and are white, they will probably notice as well).

What is un-american is politicians sticking their nose in a religious problem. If the the owner of Chick fil A wants to be a bigot then if this is still the USA he has that right end of story, let the public decide if he should stay in business by supporting or not supporting it.

Here's what Chik-Fil-A should do. Mount a campaign and tell everyone in Chicago, Philly, and wherever that if the current mayor loses in the coming election, everyone in that town gets free Chik-Fil-A sadwiches for a year.

That's my take, probably with a "if we don't like your free speech, you can't have it". In Philly if you are Bung Hole Bandit you get to be relevant.

I don't give a fuck.

I don't give a fuck.

I don't give a fuck.

I don't give a straight fuck, a sparkly purple fuck, or a completely non sexual in any way fuck

All this gay marriage shit is fucking ridiculous. Retarded. Ludacris. Just flat out gay as shit.

Who gives a fuck what Chik Fil A thinks or supports? They're not banning gays from working there or eating there or anything. The owner was making a comment and he is well within his right to say what he thinks thanks to that pesky freedom of speech thing.

Don't like it? don't eat there. Just like I won't buy a washington post or support companies with views I don't like. Jesus christ. It's a fucking free market. You can do this kind of shit

But chicago "banning" chik fil a and Philly condemning them in a resolution or whatever the fuck they're doing is fucking stupid as shit and completely gay ass dicks

The fact that all this bullshit is coming from 3 of the most liberal cities does nothing to help.

As i stated earlier. I DO NOT GIVE ANY FUCKS.

Now shut up and get back to making your delicious chicken and waffle fries.

fuck

And gays say there's no "gay agenda." Bullshit.

It's not about flaunting their weirdness. They've got politicians in their pocket now persecuting someone for their Christian beliefs, doesn't matter that they serve food to gays all day long w/o a problem.

This chick-fil-a drama is the fruition of the gay agenda.
