With Oreos supporting gay rights and Chick-fil-a supporting traditional marriage, what would be the best marketing strategy for a business? Market your store as supporting gay rights (at the risk of alienating homophobes and traditionalists, but gaining the support of the very vocal liberals and homosexuals) or coming out as supporting the 'traditional family?'

Who knows, maybe a ton of people in high places in many companies are anti-gay or anti whatever. I don't care as long as they keep it out of whatever they do. But when the owner of a company has a need to express that opinion to all of his customers for no reason other than to make the business centered around his opinions then I have a problem because it would attract those people.

you should probably stop buying things altogether then, seeing how the profit goes to things such as unfair/child labor.

In fact, stop eating, too. All those poor cows, chickens, fish, pigs, etc.

if CFA's president never said anything about this, you'd go on blindly with the program, eating their chicken, drinking their drinks. You only care about something once it's been brought out into the light to make it seem like you're a better, more tolerant and caring person than people like me who think, "Who gives a fuck what they use my money for? I'm hungry, and don't give a fuck what people choose to do in their private lives."

As far as I know, the only money that Coke gets from CFA is however much Coke charges CFA for the syrup, and that money is the only money that could be reasonably called "support". Of the money you pay for a Coke product, only a couple percent of it is actually necessary to cover the cost of the syrup.

It doesn't fucking matter what happens to the rest of the cost, and it doesn't fucking matter what Coke does with the money they charge, because that's irrelevant to the point.

Well theoretically that's what we're in a democracy for but since it rarely seems to work that's why the boycott exists.

I don't have any problems with the protest and in fact I mostly agree with it, except for that I imagine a lot of them are just "fair-weather activists" who are jumping on the bandwagon cause it's an easy way to make themselves feel important. The reaction is somewhat disproportionate.

How many transgender people are there in the general population? 2 percent? 1 percent? Yet I've seen so much anger towards the rest of the general population who don't happened to know the exact politically correct term for them or misuse personal nouns. What do they expect? How can such a small number of people have such a presence on the internet and not understand that most people don't generally have much (if any) contact with them.

I'm all for equal rights and the right to change your gender (and be accepted as that gender) and while I agree people should have the courtesy for them, it's delusional to think that all people everywhere should know these PC terms and not get confused (especially the older generation). It verges on arrogance sometimes.

I understand and agree with what you're saying here (and, yes, at the risk of getting shit for it, I'm trans and avoid the "community" because I'm relatively lax about my own pronouns, which rustles tons of jimmies).

But the fact is that it's a largely misunderstood issue. If someone completely understood and supported you and happened to use the wrong term, it's not an issue at all. But most people, even the gays, don't consider it a legitimate condition. That's where the problem is, and it's where the pronoun issue comes in. Refusing to call someone by their preferred name or pronoun is often indicative of their attitude toward you.

They can support non-equal marriage, and if they want they should totally be able to bar people they don't like from their restaurants. They could have little signs to show it. Like a unicorn in a red circle with a slash through it for "no gay people" and the same thing with a picture of Stevie Wonder for "no black people" and a little drawing of a man in a rice hat for "no asians".

I'm actually surprised at some of the responses itt, more-so what sounds like honest hate for the gay community.

Regardless of my own views, any business owner who openly discusses a hate for another group of people is, in lack of better terms, gross.

I know a lot of kids here like to be edgy and hating gays is somewhat acceptable, but on a large scale, hating any group just for their bred association (i.e. sexuality/race) is just plain regressive.

Merchants should and always be impartial.

Religious or not, a chicken salesman shouldn't ever be publically speaking out like this. Its intolerant and overall bad business.

Actually most people are opposed to same sex marriage. The only majority group for it is under 21 years old. Its 70% for the teenage group actually. But every group after 21 is always in the against gay marriage category. The oldest category is somewhere around 90% are against it.

So overall most the population is against it which is why even the most liberal states such as California don't pass gay marriage laws.

Nobody denies anyone's here, gays can function as a family if they want to, they can have sex and fall in love, they can have jobs, etc. There's just seems to be no reason for the government to have any deal with this. So gay people can pay less tax and receive more benefit, but would there be real contribution to society? In some society, you're even penalize to be a family that the government deemed that it won't benefit them, for example in China you'd be penalize with taxes if you have children, in some other countries they do the exact opposite, they would pay you to marry and have children.

Marriage actually predates Abrahamic religion and existed in societies with no contact with Abrahamic religion. Furthermore, same sex marriage has existed for thousands of years and used to be performed by the Catholic Church prior to about 1200.

Furthermore, not everyone is demanding that churches should have to support gay marriage. Equal marriage is about gaining equal recognition before law. Personally, I don't care who churches choose to marry, but their sociopolitical views should not have any bearing on a person's right to be married before the law.

- In 75 countries in the world, being gay is illegal. In many, the penalty is life in prison. These are countries we can’t openly visit. In 9 countries, being gay is punishable by death. In many others, violence against gays is tacitly accepted by the authorities. These are countries where we would be killed. Killed.

- Two organizations that work very hard to maintain this status quo and roll back any protections that we may have are the Family Research Council and the Marriage & Family Foundation. For example, the Family Research council leadership has officially stated that same-gender-loving behavior should be criminalized in this country. They draw their pay, in part, from the donations of companies like Chick-Fil-A. Both groups have also done “missionary” work abroad that served to strengthen and promote criminalization of same-sex relations.

- Chick-Fil-A has given roughly $5M to these organizations to support their work.

- Chick-Fil-A’s money comes from the profits they make when you purchase their products.

The "Kiss Mor Chiks" thing that the homosexuals are going to pull on Friday is easily classifiable as public indecency/disturbing the peace/etc. A company of any statute does not have to put up with behavior that clearly interrupts the flow or management of their business if said people aren't even going to be customers, so technically that would also be trespassing if the intent is disruption and making a scene.

Your sexual orientation is irrelevant to the legality of such a law, but of course it will be twisted by the media and activists to be some anti-gay witchhunt too. How about this? Leave everyone alone. The CEO of Chick-Fil-A is as entitled to believe marriage is between a man and a woman as you are to believe it's between anyone.

That doesn't give you the right to intimidate and threaten said companys' customers, disrupt their business and take away peoples' first amendment rights because they don't conform to YOUR view.
