Chef Jim Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 The fact that people are trying to get laws passed to ban certain types of marriage between live human beings is discriminatory, and in effect, limiting freedom. Now, if a church doesn't want to perform the ceremony, that is 100% perfectly fine. I don't think it's right, and I have just as much right to that opinion and that specific church has to theirs. It doers NOT, however, justify the mistreatment of employees- many of whom disagree with the owner's stance. I don't eat there anymore, because it is very unhealthy, but customer service wasn't the problem- the sense of "I can treat people however I want" that pervades the younger generation of this country is the problem! So by voicing his opinion he's trying to get laws passed to ban certain types of marriages? It's amazing the information people have on people they've never met.

Its amazing that after months of endless debate and outrage, most people still have no idea what the argument on gay marriage is even about.

TakeYouToTasker Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 WTF are you talking about, and where did you get this info? Did EiL invade your mind? I believe he means the jackass who videotaped himself abusing the girl at the drive-through was unjustified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you please let me know the specifics as it relates to the owner of Chic-Fil-A mistreating employees because they disagree with his stand on traditional marriage? I have no idea where you are getting this from and would truly like to see links to references. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob's House Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I'm eating at Chick-fil-a right now. There's just something about the way the chicken & bacon intermingle with the tangy hate sauce. Mmm, so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably mean that I should be careful posting, when I am working on something else Not the first time that has happened, probably not the last. There are a lot of people who wrongly want laws passed about this, it should not become a legal issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only people who seems to want to ban same-sex marriages seem to be quoting the mythical bible, so I would call it a religous issue, more than legal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Tea Baggers? I didn't EVER say that. I'd say it is pretty atypical of you to put words in my mouth. People who believe them are neither good, nor bad. That is defined more by how others interpret their actions. And for the record, I have pretty much defended the tea party.
