As I drove by Chino Hills today on my way in from Moor Park, I glanced over at a Chick-fil-A in a shopping center that runs along the 71 Freeway. The parking lot was full, and the line went out the door and along the side of the building. Radio shows were saying all day that if you were planning to go to just about any Chick-fil-A in the country, traffic jams and long lines should be expected.
Not exactly the response gay activists and hard left liberals expected when they went after the Christian owned fast food restaurant, I am thinking.
Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee called for today to be Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day so Americans could show support for the restaurant's owners, freedom of speech, and traditional marriage. The idea when viral, and thanks to the Tea Party (which is still strong and loud) and community churches, Chick-fil-A got what is probably their best day in terms of revenue that the restaurant has seen since its founding.
Talk about putting your money where your mouth is.
Gays are planning a same-sex disgust fest (smooching) at the restaurants on Friday to protest the owners of the establishment daring to stand up for their moral convictions.
All of this hub-bub because the President of the restaurant chain said in an interview with a Baptist publication: "We are very much supportive of the family -- the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that."
What did the homosexuals expect him to say?
They were simply looking for an excuse to go on the warpath, and they erroneously think that most Americans support their attempt to justify their behavior and their attempt to destroy marriage. It turns out that like adultery and pedophilia, homosexuality is still considered a wrong sexual behavior.
Note that nobody, as the gays want to claim, has called for outlawing their sexual behavior. They are free to do what they want, short of destroying the institution of marriage, or forcing our children to be exposed to their activities (or in the case of California, forcing our children to be taught that homosexuality is a wonderful thing).
The proof is in the chicken.
