I left off the smiley faces in both of the above posts because you did, but I was chuckling the entire time I wrote them. I personally feel that the homophobic idiots at Chick-Fil-A have done a tremendous service to the rights of LGBT citizens in America. I mean, a PR firm *for* the LBGT cause could not have orchestrated a better media event. First the president of C-F-A announces in public that he's vehemently anti-gay, quoting Bible verses to back him up. Then, when one of his business partners the Jim Henson company takes issue with his words and sends back his check as co-partner with them for Henson-brand "happy meals," what does Mr. Brilliant do? He arranges for Chick-Fil-A locations to put signs up in their windows saying that the happy meals had been withdrawn for "safety reasons," and blaming the supplier for any potential injuries to children (which even they admit never happened). A day or so later, on a Facebook forum that had arisen to protest Chick-Fil-A's idiocy, someone created a fictional Facebook profile for a fictional female teenager, and began to post rants in support of Chick-Fil-A, each followed by some of the same Bible verses its founder used. It took only a couple of hours for some blogger to point out that the photo of the "teenager" was a stock photo from a photo service, and that the entire FB profile was a fake. Then Chick-Fil-A's head PR guy dies of a heart attack. Now tell me *that* isn't the fuckin' Will Of God. :-) At this point even homophobic good 'ole boys from the Deep South are laughing at Chick-Fil-A, and thus at the deeply homophobic beliefs they espouse. Sooner or later these good 'ole boys will breed, and when they do their kids will grow up a little less afraid of the people their own parents were afraid of, until they laughed, and got over it.
