The seeds of chaos were planted in July when Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy appeared on a radio show
and publicly stated that his company opposes same-sex marriage. It didn’t take long for his statements to reverberate throughout the nation, with civil rights groups, media outlets and the public at large responding feverishly. This, teamed with the angst that was already created months before over Chick-fil-A’s past donations to groups that support the traditional family unit, created a furor.
With the dust having finally settled, a shocking report from a Chicago-based gay rights group
claims that the fast food chain has now pledged to stop funding groups that stand against legalizing gay marriage. In a press release
on Tuesday, The Civil Rights Agenda (TCRA) announced that an internal Chick-fil-A document shows that the company is re-thinking which organizations it will fund.

Chick may have got a financial bump from the protest, but it pointed or highlighted a disturbing fact...90% of the people who showed for support were in the 55+ range, a horrible long term problem because those people are dying at a faster rate than the 18-49 range you need. Its very like what is happening at KMart and Sears and we all know how well they're doing. The people who held to the boycott were the 18-49 people who advertisers desire.
I need to know for sure if this is true. It has no credibility coming from a Chicago based gay rights group. I have been avidly supporting Chick-fil-a, but will no more if they have caved on this one. Can anyone confirm this? Nevermind-I just read the rest of the article. It came to the huffington post from "unnamed sources who did not wish to be identified". It is obviously another lie.

I looked around the web and I see nothing from Chickfila on this only on the liberal media sites. The headline says allegedly agrees......so lets hope they stand their ground.
You people are on the completely wrong side of history. Learn to adapt, or this world will swallow you up alive.
Youre basing your thought process off of youre religion. Youre trying to force your religious beliefs onto other human beings who dont want it.
Religion is like a penis.
Its fine to have one.
Its fine to be proud of it.
But please dont whip it out in public and start waving it around.
And please dont try to shove it down our kids throats.
"You people are on the completely wrong side of history. Learn to adapt, or this world will swallow you up alive."
So, basically, what you're saying is not to maintain any beliefs or standards. Bow to popular trends, no matter how personally grotesque you may find them. What a spineless twerp you are.
I hope this is true so I can start enjoying Chic fil a again!

Im spineless, yet youre the one whos basing your beliefs off of a beingless entity.
You dont find them personally grotesque. The only reason you find them "grotesque" is because some book suggests that you should. A book that also suggests rape, among many other horrors.
Oh, I forgot that all was changed in the new testament. The new testament that was edited by people who never laid eyes on jesus(I do believe he was an actual person, just... not supernatural) and have zero first hand accounts.
So wait, they edited the bible because they wanted to bow to popular trends? Wouldnt you know.
Why not just live your life by your own moral guidelines? Nobody should have to tell you that killing is wrong or stealing is wrong.
LOL you can say anything is true as long as you put the word "allegedly" in front of it. Come on now....
Adapting to things that are not right have gotten us to the place we are now -- no integrity, no ethics, no morality, no discipline, no respect. If we keep adapting soon the devil will have won and we will be living in hell on earth.

Same old false argument.
Why don't you guys join a club or something so you can stay current with the ones that have already been proven false, so we don't have to keep repeating?
I heard that Chick-Fil-A will now perform same sex marriages on Sundays!

No you didn't.
I see the trolls are up early today.
No I really did. Obama will personally perform Islamic same sex marriages.
so if this is true, will christians boycott chick-fil-a?
I have not seen or read anything where they have changed their stance.
