    Since I'm only about an hour away...I'll have to keep a close eye on this story.

    This will really show Chick-fil-a's true colors.

    who wants to bet they lose the franchise once coorporate finds out that they dont want gays to be put in jail, or deported, as a chick-fil-a funded group is advocated.

    I think it's great that this franchise owner is stepping up and making his own feelings known.

    It would be very interesting to see the franchise agreement to see if there's some stipulation about "going along with God's will" or some shit that they could use to cancel the franchise agreement with this heathen franchise owner. If enough franchise owners say "fuck you" to corporate, they won't be able to sustain their bigotry.

    This is awesome. It's nice to see that not all of Chick-Fil-A's employees hold the same brown eyed view towards gay marriage. Well... change has to start somewhere.

    I would not be surprised if they did that. Friggin' idiots that they are...

    I have heard chick-fil-a does have requirements for employees to adhere to certain value-standards, so I would not be shocked if that goes for franchisee's.

    there is a women who is sueing the coorporation because she was fired for being a married female who worked out of the home.

    I'd say let them deport me. I'd be happy to go live in Europe. XD

    That aside I do applaud that franchise manager for standing up like that. Doing that takes courage, and I wish that person the best.

    Cool, so now I'll allow myself to try Chic-fil-A provided it's the one in Nashua. That's just a ...... 3000 mile, ~47 hour drive......
