Jesus Chicken...again

[Scout26]

It just goes to show that leftists love democracy....until it gives the wrong results.  Then the "will of the people" is wrong and must not be allowed.

The intolerance of the self described tolerant.

Rich person needs to open one right next to campus and then give out free chicken at any and all protests or student events.

Isaiah chapter 5 around the 18th verse through 24th talks about Jerusalem at the time.  But it is interesting in the context of today as we seem to be living in a mirror image of that scripture.

I don't think it has to be a rich person. My understanding is that if a potential franchisee meets Chick-fil-A's criteria, they put up a lot of the start-up funding and the franchisee only has to put up a fairly nominal amount as seed money.

I wish there were one closer to me. The only one even nominally within range is about 40 minutes away. It's not all that far as the crow flies -- but there aren't any roads under that flight path.

I wonder if Ben and Jerry's corporate values would be "suitable."

[griz]

Chick-fil-A’s “corporate values have not sufficiently progressed enough to align with those of Rider,” the university told students

Nothing show open mindednessamd tolerance like saying "what we believe is right and anybody who thinks otherwise doesn't deserve to be in our presence".

Ask Unilever, they own B&J's 100% since 2000.

Well rich, because I don't want to be profitable, I just want to give away free food until it corrupts the other people. You wanna see progressive principles crumble? Keep handing drunk broke freshman free sandwiches.

They also have problems with Jesus Chicken because they demonstrate how government control isn't really necessary.  Part of the reason they're so popular is that the founder hasn't joined the rat race to the bottom,employee wise.

Apparently paying well above industry standard allows them to snipe the best workers, and being closed on Sundays helps with getting management in, because they at least know they'll have sunday off.*  Customers, at least to an extent, might shuffle their fast food choices around rather than visiting the store less.

If you are the only place open on Sunday, it is a substantial advantage to you.  If everybody but you is open, it might not be that big of a deal.

*Well, probably most of the time, they might schedule needed maintenance that day sometimes.

Figured Romans 1 was closer.
