Grand opening of Chick-fil-A's only Canadian restaurant draws adoring customers and angry protesters
- Thread starter FriskyCanuck
- Start date
Gotta love the classic "Oh, you participate in society? Gotcha." takes in here.
Said it better than I could have.
You need to put a tariff on "whoos".There aren't a lot of them, but yes. Sometimes red, sometimes a different colour in an attempt to...I have no idea, it's not distancing it from anything.
I also - very rarely - see people with confederate bumper stickers or flags in their car window.
PG Clucks and Dirtybird are way better (and don't funnel money towards hateful causes), go to those instead if you're ever in our city, please.
Yes. At least it's in most major cities in southern Ontario.
Yes and we've had the sandwich for years, to my knowledge.
People doing the same shit for Popeyes fried chicken. It's nuts!
Wait, what?
The spicy chicken sandwich I get on Wednesdays is what's causing the ruckus down south?
That's my understanding. Like Taco Bell US got fries recently and we've had those up here for as long as I remember, too.
I could be wrong about the Popeye's but I was getting some for dinner last week and someone came in and asked about the sandwich and the lady at the counter exasperatedly said what sounded like "It's not new..." half under her breath.
That post should be the first one in every Chik Fil A topic. Thankfully it looks like the teasing drive bys and the like have calmed down. I refuse to believe the outright apathy shown by the few posters ITT still acting like fools aren't a shtick. I hope it's a shtick
Of course as I type that this type of fool shit gets posted. Era gonna Era
Just because you disagree doesn't mean you have to talk trash about my opinion. Sigh.
I can kind of understand this, though. If you're a Filipino immigrant and you remember that food from your childhood, you're lining up for the nostalgia.
Oh, this is interesting to hear. After hearing about the Popeye's sandwich recently, I thought I'd try it out since I live near some outlets, but then I read it was American only, so I never bothered to visit. If they actually do have a chicken sandwich there, and have had so for a while, I'll put it back on my "to do" list.
I only had Popeyes for the first time a year ago or so, so I have no idea how long these sandwiches have been around.
Hahahahhaahhahahaha " opinion", as if I care one iota about the damned chicken sandwich. Disingenuous ignorant as fuck post.
User Banned (Permanent): Excusing Homophobia; Prior Severe Ban for Excusing Homophobia
Posters like this are why I had almost given up using this forum anymore.
Also, I don't think there's anything wrong with what Chick Fil A is doing either.
There is plenty fucking wrong with where they put their money. Funding anti-lgbt groups and conversion therapy is A-okay to you?
Both my daughters love eating at CFA, and they are both gay/bi. Several of their friends, also gay/bi (male and female) love eating there and go in a group at times. Two of the managers at the main CFA we go to are gay, and open about it. They mingle with the kids and their friends whenever they are up there.
Whatever you get, make sure to also include some red beans and rice. 😘👌🏻 So yummy
There are literally multiple restaurants that serve chicken that don't sponsor homophobia.
Is it literally that hard not to go here?

I've said it before but the owners of cfa are stupid to come out and say they oppose gay marriage. Those other restaurants you reference likely also sponsor questionable shit, but they're smart enough to keep their mouths shut about it.
Most big corps give money to questionable shit.
Posters like what? Go ahead let's hear your bullshit, I have time today come on let's hear it. Have some balls and air out your nonsense shit out instead of this passive aggressive shit.
Not personally aware of problematic sponsorship Popeyes has done, personally.
Time and time again people have proven that they don't care and they relish letting everyone else know that they don't care. It's absolutely disgusting. Imagine if they donated to a white supremacist group/ anti person of color group. Do you think people here would be giving them a pass. Of course not but it's only LGBT so " chicken and service" > our rights
Well dammit, I was just out near one today. Okay, I'll give this a try.
Not going to waste my time arguing with you. If you want to have the last word then go ahead.
If you don't think there's anything wrong with naked open homophobia, then nobody gives a shit if you stop using this forum.
There are a lot of places you can go to discuss shitty chicken with bigots. Some of us actually care about human rights.
I agree. Their chicken sandwiches (along with their chicken in general) are far superior to Chick-Fil-A's & KFC's.
I honestly don't get how openly supporting this company doesn't warrant a ban.
You're being called out because you proudly & blatantly support a company who practices bigotry/homophobia towards LGBT's. That's why.
You can't act like a victim.

Like just say nothing. It's not that hard to enjoy your food without having to give let everyone know you're ok with giving LGBT the metaphorical finger too. You really have to take the time to feign ignorance and post about how much you love a chicken sandwich when you know how upsetting this issue is with people? What kind of person does that? Lol Threepio poster is a bigot coward what a surprise
That's just pathetic. You're lamenting the forum because you can't praise a chicken sandwich. You realize how dumb that sounds?
Sure, but the difference is that it is not someone who works there or indirectly benefits from CFA. It's not even just that it is owned and run by religious fanatics. It's the company itself that people have a problem with, because the company was directly (with corporate funds) funding those causes
OP
OP
Were they giving out free food to the first 100 or whatever people in line like they do in the US or did people really just want some chicken?
I don't mind Chikfila. Around here at least they're one of the few places that both treats and pays their employees well. The CEO may be an assole, but that doesn't mean everyone that works there is.

Feel free to not post again.
Edit: welp someone helped you on your way out.
You really think this only about one person? That just shows your ignorance.
Whatever makes you happy. I'm not going to debate you on it.
You can really taste the ignorance in the chicken, I wonder how it tastes if you're queer and have no issue eating there. Sorry, but that's fucked up. No excuses for that.
Of course not because you can't. The only way you could begin a debate on this is from a place of bigotry. Nice of you to state the obvious though.
