Playing Chicken with Human Rights

                Chick-Fil-A has mighty good food, their chicken is far healthier than a burger and fries, and they promote healthy eating and other positive life style choices. One thing that Chick-Fil-A has done wrong though, is having an aggressive anti homosexual stance, or as they would put it; a pro heterosexual stance.  It was recently uncovered that Chick-Fil-A donated more than 5 million dollars to Christian organizations with an anti gay agenda.  It would be one thing if Chick-Fil-A donated to unbiased Christian organizations or no organization at all. Although every person has a right to their own personal beliefs and ideals, a company also has the ability to make a political stance whether or not it be an advantageous business practice. Discrimination is different, when a company openly admits to supporting organizations that support the ostracizing and discrimination of a minority, it not only questions the company’s business practices, but it validates the erroneous belief that homosexuals are different and their life choices are to be judged and scrutinized. This country is a free country, a country where a business can say whatever they want about whomever they want. We as a free people can openly decided which business we decide to patronize based on their products and their beliefs. I certainly will not patronize a business that preaches discrimination and intolerance towards anybody, no matter how good their food is.
