Chick-fil-A is not only anti-gay, but doesn't want women with children working there either.

The fast food company, which has come under fire since president Dan Cathy openly stated his opposition to same-sex marriage, is now facing a gender discrimination lawsuit.

We couldn't be more proud of our beloved Muppets!

Although the Jim Henson Company had partnered with Chick-Fil-A this month to release make-your-own-puppet kits as the toy given with kid's meals, the production studio has announced today that they will no longer be associated with the fast food chain due to its public confirmation that they do not support gay rights…and spend $2 million funding organizations fighting same-sex marriage!

According to a statement on Henson's Facebook page:

Uh-oh. Well this is certainly going to make future holiday dinners with the family uncomfy!

In light of Jane Pitt's condemning comments on same-sex marriage and abortion, Angelina Jolie is reportedly mortified!

And furthermore, she's furious that Brad Pitt won't stand up to his mom!

A source close to the situation explains:

Brad Pitt's mommy dearest made headlines last week after making her not-so-accepting views of the LGBT community known. In case you missed it, she wrote a letter to her local newspaper which encouraged readers to vote for Mitt Romney because of his opposition to same-sex marriage.

Obvi, we weren't thrilled and since Brad is a major supporter of equality, we bet he wasn't either. However, the woman is a faithful conservative Christian and we all know how hard it can be to shake some sense into that crowd.

We have our beliefs, they have theirs, but we wish we could all compromise when it comes to treating every human being with fairness.

Either way, Brad describes his mother, Jane, as a "very, very loving — very open, genuine" woman who "wants everyone to be happy." His brother, Doug, seems to agree and defended her right to express her views in the manner she did.

BEYOND tragic!!!

Zachery Gray is the latest victim of hate, and is now suffering from severe brain damage after a suicide attempt allegedly due to what his parents are describing as “horrible, non-stop” anti-gay bullying

The 17 year-old Florida teen was constantly bullied in school and taunted with anti-gay hatred, although his parents state that he was actually not gay and had a girlfriend.

The teen reached out to a teacher for help, who failed to report the abuse to the school or his parents. After being subjected to the harsh torment, Zach attempted to hang himself, but was saved by paramedics and his mother who administered CPR.

Sadly, they weren’t able to get to the teen in time and although his life was saved, he now requires round the clock care due and must relearn to walk and talk again.

Check out the video (above) to hear the parents describe a pain no parent should ever have to go through, and what they’re doing to make sure this doesn’t happen EVER again!

Remember when Chick-fil-a gave all that $$$ to anti-gay organizations??? Yeah, that kind of sucked.

WELL it's been tough times giving up them fried chickens and waffle fries, but it seems the hunger has become too much for Misses Willam Belli, Detox & Vicky Vox who say: even if you're gay, CHOW DOWN AT CHICK-FIL-A!!!!!!
