Dan Cathy's chickens hate-filled comments are finally coming home to roost!

The controversial bigoted COO of Chick-Fil-A recently said allowing same-sex marriage is “inviting God’s judgment on our nation.”

In an ironic twist, his homophobic viewpoints invited the nation's judgment down on his fast-food chain.

First the mayor of Boston spoke out against his company, and now Chicago politicians are following suit!

City Councilman "Joe' Moreno just vowed to block paperwork the company filed in trying to open up another restaurant in the Windy City.

He emphatically stated:

What wondrous, inspirational news!!

Major props to the city of Boston, who dismantled plans to introduce the ig'nant, no-homo, fast food joint Chick-fil-A into their cobblestone surroundings!

The execs of the super popular restaurant were hoping to bring their waffle fries and special sauce to a spot near Boston's famed and historic Freedom Trail…

But only SOME are free to eat the crispy chicken, right guys? Ha!

The Atlanta-based chicken-sandwich chain is notorious for supporting anti-gay groups, and Chick-fil-A's president Dan Cathy recently said gay marriage is “inviting God’s judgment on our nation.”

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:

Five Guys!

A poll from consumer market researcher Market Force has found that the burger joint is America's favorite fast food restaurant.

The poll asked 4,500 Americans to pick their favorite chain from the 55 highest-grossing quick-service restaurants, but then adjusted the vote to account for disparities in the total number of locations.

The students at Indiana University South Bend have a chicken-sandwich-sized hole in their stomachs that they can no longer fill.

But for good reason!

The university banned Chick-Fil-A after finding out that they will be donating food to an event hosted by an anti-gay group.

After hearing about this news, Chick-Fil-A’s president released a statement:

"Providing food to these events or any event is not an endorsement of the mission, political stance or motives of this or any other organization. Any suggestion otherwise is just inaccurate."

Um, while donating food may not be a DIRECT endorsement of anti-gay sentiments, it’s the WRONG thing to do! Next time make a statement by refusing to serve them food! Don’t support bigotry in any way!!
