Well the mayor can definitely say whatever he desires...but he can't do annything to keep the company out of his city.
I flew through Boston-Logan a couple of months ago. Outside the entrance to the airport are three flags: the US flag, the state flag, and a rainbow flag. It told me alot about their view of the importance of this issue.
Perhaps we are now seeing the tipping point of the anti-biblical marriage (hehe...see its easy to make anything "anti") crowd. They now are overplaying their hand. It has moved from "hey we're hear and we deserve a voice" to "accept us or else." Some pro-gay groups are planning a "kiss-in" at Chick-fil-a's across the US to protest. So we have to accept their position or else? Odd that this is the natural result of their agenda.
I do think it is overplaying their hand. This kind of rhetoric will only embolden evangelicals and believers. The minute Chick-fil-a restaraunts start getting closed down there will be a reaction. The homosexual crowd is, estimated, probably only 5% to 8% of the population. Evangelicals are much more than that. Should be interesting to see what happens here.
I like Chick-fil-a, I eat there enough (its my number one fastfood destination.) I don't care what the owner says or supports. It doesn't impact how he makes a chicken sandwhich imho.
