Gay Activists Protest Chick-fil-A With Same Sex Kiss Day

Business showed no signs of slowing at the Chick-fil-A stores around town, despite an outcry from the gay community.

Things got heated after the family who owns the company announced they embrace traditional, biblical views of marriage.

“I do know one thing, you have to stand up for what you believe,” said Wanda Craig.

The controversy isn’t stopping people from eating there. In fact, conservative Christians, like former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, are ramping up their support by encouraging others to eat Chick-fil-A on August 1st.

The gay community responded with its own day, the National Same Sex Kiss Day at Chick-fil-A.

Activists say the company has the right to believe want it wants, but they have the right to protest it.

They say the company gives to Christian organizations that promote bigotry, and hate against the gay community.

“Chick-fil-A advocates, always has, always will, that all of our customers are treated with honor dignity and respect no matter race, religion or sexual orientation,” said Stuart Davidson, the operator for the Southaven Chick-fil-A.

He says any couple who comes in on the kiss day protest is welcome as long as there is nothing inappropriate.

“If you want to come in and kiss, hold hands then, you know, it doesn’t matter what your sexual orientation is,” he said. “They’ll all be welcomed with genuine hospitality just like every day we’re open.”

The same-sex kiss day is planned for August 3rd at 7:00pm.

Business is booming inspite of the fake controversy.

Because it's not like they don't have homosexual parades, homosexual bars, homosexual just about everything these days, now they want to whine and cry about some business owner that is repulsed by that lot. And it wouldn't be so bad but most of those wannabee men lesbo warriors are anything but attractive.

I'm sure the lesbians are very sad that they aren't attractive to you.

Got to love it. Ain't freedom great. As I have said I don't agree with Don Cathy but Bless for having the balls. What a great example, " I will still treat you with respect and dignity, but don't ask me to pretend I condone it. This has to be driving liberals nuts.

Let me tell you how it will end. Some minimum wage clerk somewhere will make an anti-gay statement to some customer in Chck-fil-a and the news media will go nuts that this is proof positive they discriminate against gays.

And that's exactly what they're hoping for. They're just trying to provoke a response.

A simple kiss would ruin your "dining experience"? Doesn't take much, I guess..

I mean, if they were making out (and that goes for straight and gay couples), then I could understand being put off by it.

It won't be one couple kissing.

It'll be a group of people trying to make a spectacle of themselves. I wouldn't want to go pay to eat somewhere where they're having any kind of political/cultural demonstration.
