Breaking: Active Shooter HS Broward Co, FL
When private businesses do this I secretly pull for them to fail - as in bankruptcy failure - I don't care what the cause or crusade is. IDGAF about your corporate activism. I also don't pay attention to your green endorsements, your charities, your work with children's homes, whatever
I want you to do what I pay you to do and minimize my inconvenience and heartburn when you do it.
That said, US airlines don't have to worry about it - if sh1tty service was a killer theyd all be dead already... so I doubt pissing off NRA members is going to dent them any more than the regular manhandling of passengers
They'll go cap in hand to Uncle Sam whining for more o that corporate welfare

Boycotts tend to not work in either direction. I’m guessing Chik fil A survived its public fear of the gay? (We don’t have any here).

Re: Breaking: Active Shooter HS Broward Co, FL
Yum, we are being infiltrated by Chik fil A in the Twin Cities. I think their corporate message is being massaged to conform to modern values. Similar to politicians like Obama and Clinton. Follow the money. Unfortunately the right is not moving as fast in that direction.kalm wrote:Will they.ALPHAGRIZ1 wrote:

Chick Fil A is so delicious, so clean, and the employees are so friendly that I don’t care about the owner’s feelings about gays.kalm wrote:Will they.ALPHAGRIZ1 wrote:

Similarly, as an NRA lifer, I don’t really care what airline I fly on. 10 times out of 10, I’m picking the one that has some combination of the cheapest and shortest flight to where I’m going. So they made a show for the media on guns. Don’t care if it saves me $500.

Fried chicken, like simple, non-exotic spice mixtures can only be so good. You guys oversell the fuck out of these things...93henfan wrote:Chick Fil A is so delicious, so clean, and the employees are so friendly that I don’t care about the owner’s feelings about gays.kalm wrote:

In other news, Floridians are so distraught about guns that a record number (7,000+ each day) attended the Florida Gun Show at the fairgrounds in Tampa this past weekend.

Re: Breaking: Active Shooter HS Broward Co, FL
Of course it's just my opinion. I've had highly regarded fried chicken before, just not Chic fil A. The Elk Public House in Spokane's Santa Fe Chicken Sammy with roasted poblano and honey cream cheese has the most perfectly breaded and cooked chicken breast you could ever imagine.93henfan wrote:You just said you’ve not been to one, so your opinion...kalm wrote:

Call it an educated guess that there's a ceiling on how good it can be.

Re: Breaking: Active Shooter HS Broward Co, FL
I have no parochial connection to Chick Fil A. I believe they were founded in/around Atlanta. Their chicken sammich is the best in the industry, but that’s just part of the equation. Their biggest asset is their HR. They only hire good kids to work there. Friendly, hardworking, and the girls are wholesome hot. Those who have been there know what I mean. I hesitate to call it a fast food restaurant, though it surely is. It’s really in a different category than a McD, BK, KFC, Popeyes, etc.

Re: Breaking: Active Shooter HS Broward Co, FL
It's basically fast food, so no alcohol. I'm a Sweet Tea Toddler at this point in my life. I'll pick it up from time to time and have it at home with my wife.kalm wrote:Not legally in the state of Washington with the new distracted driving law.Gil Dobie wrote:

Totally different level than McD, BK, KFC, Popeyes, etc. Whenever I say Thank you, they say You're Welcome, very friendly. The chicken is so much better too.93henfan wrote:I have no parochial connection to Chick Fil A. I believe they were founded in/around Atlanta.

We had an Ofc. Barfield from Charleston as a SRO. That guy was a dick - but he also wasn't a coward. He had to put up with bratty private school kids and on a few instances, disarm a kid.

No shit. You not gonna fly Delta or United because you're boycotting? OK...guess you're driving everywhere then...because you've eliminated about 70% of the flights on the planet.
