All white food counters, white only bathrooms, white only water fountains, sitting in the back of the bus. These are things that people of color were forced to deal with during the years of oppression. Now here we are 50+ years later and we face the same thing in the form of a chicken sandwich.

This is my America...

Chick-fill-A May Be Crooked - Truthdig
Last time on Truthdig Radio in association with KPFK:
The editor in chief of The Advocate talks chicken and bigotry, the tea
party wins big in Texas, cybersecurity from the inbox to the nuclear
power plant, race and politics, and we remember Gore Vidal.

It's all about free speech and the First Amendment for anyone too ignorant to understand.

It's not about gay rights. It's about the First Amendment.

No, I will not support Chick-fill-A I support gay rights.

what about the other fast food chains- what do they support? Chick Fil A is #14 in fast food sales- do we care about the others 13 ahead of them?

The only reason why I care about it now is because it's becoming a deal of either party is only right or wrong. Never a middle ground. Like drugs, like oppression from color we've been over this motion plenty of times before. Learn from it. History tends to repeat itself when we don't learn from it. If everyone was slightly more educated they may see the potential of having all kinds of people contributing to a one consensus goal. I just saw this image of colored people holding chick-fill-a; it was just sad to see since they've been through that not more than half a decade ago and are so willing to throw gay people under the bus so fast rather than fighting for equal rights together..
