This is an example of people being outraged over a person's opinion; where's the outrage over people's actions. Why are people so angry, Dan Cathy has a right to speak his mind, this is America. Isn't it? He did not say he would not serve members of the LGBT community, so what's the problem? These same people that are fuming over words are silent against Sandusky a man that took action and molested children, and another man Paterno who remained silent in order to protect football. FOOTBALL!! Really, these young boy’s lives will forever be altered because of ACTION and in-Action; not words. These boys would be just fine if Sandusky just spoke about molesting them instead of actually molesting them. 

America’s economy is falling apart and there aren’t any jobs, so we’ll start shutting down a business that is adding jobs and paying taxes.  Really, do you care about the people that rely upon business from Chick-fil-A?  Think about the vendors that supply the buns, lettuce, tomatoes, cups, spoons, plates, cheese, soda...that’s a lot of people to put out of business based upon a statement. 

There is an analogy between the LGBT community and the civil rights.  Nothing could be farther from the truth.  Blacks in America fought for the right to LIVE, the right to be considered HUMAN; the right to be allowed the same educational opportunities as everyone else; and the right to earn a living commensurate with others performing the same duties. 

Is the fight for Blacks in America over?  No!  Emphatically, there is still blatant racism in this country.  Just look at this article on a Black couple being denied the opportunity to marry at a white Baptist church:                                 <a href="http://thebeatdfw.com/2010406/race-matters-black-couple-denied-wedding-service-at-mississippi-church-smh/">

Are race relations in America better?  Yes!  But, better does not mean wiped out.
