Sure, the world has had fire since it's been a planet, but if I told you in 1979 that in the next 5 years both the world's funniest comedian and most popular pop star would survive catching themselves on fire, that's still a miraculously accurate prediction.

Chicken restaurant chain releases new chicken sandwich, runs out, and causes multiple riots was hardly foreseeable, imo....at least not the first time. I kind of expected it for the reboot, granted.

I get the whole boycotting CFA for its views and all that. But the way I see it: It's a losing battle, they will not win, and so the money they are spending for it is just going down the toilet. I've only had them twice but man are those good chicken sandwiches.

Anti-human equality?

Doggone, I thought for sure they were just selling chicken sandwiches!

Yes, if you don't support gay marriage, you are, by definition, anti-gay. (I have never heard of any gay person who doesn't like straight people getting married. Have you???)

You're correct that homosexuals aren't defined by their ability to marry one another. They, like all humans, are defined in part by their rights, of which marriage is one.

You're correct, Chik Fil-A didn't donate to anti-gay campaigns. They donated to the anti-gay organizations that run them. Same difference, as far as I'm concerned, but if you want to split hairs...

As our country is more closely aligned with fascism inasmuch as government is "gay married" to the corporations, then where/how corporations spend their money is of increasing importance to the consumers who are, in essence, voting to support issues with their dollars.

Your analogy of the birthday present is not the same thing, because I, unlike a corporation, do not have political power like they do. If the present was $50 Million, and it was donated to Al Qaeda, then yes, you would have supported terrorism with your "gift."

Anyone who says the following is clearly running an anti-gay agenda:
"I think we are inviting God's judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at Him and say 'we know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage' and I pray God's mercy on our generation that has such a prideful, arrogant attitude to think that we have the audacity to try to redefine what marriage is all about."

Dan Cathy, Chick-Fil-A Pres. and COO, The Ken Coleman Show, June 16th.


... even though he clearly has little understanding of how marriage was originally defined in the Bible (which commands that brothers-in-law marry widows, or that rapists marry the women they rape) as if that even mattered!.

You're right. The fact that they do things for married couples doesn't mean that they're anti-gay. The fact that they donate large bundles of money to anti-gay campaigns, on the other hand, does mean that they support anti-gay policies.
Did you not watch the video??>> ^Edgeman2112:
This is reaaaaaaaaaaaallly stretching it. Just because they do things for married couples doesn't mean they hate gays. I side with the chicken people on this one because they're a victim of gross generalization.


Yes I watched the video, but you are the one who fell for the sensationalism.
Let's be rational and fair here. If you don't support gay marriage, does that automatically label you as anti-gay? F-ck no it doesn't. If gay people don't like straight people getting married, does that make they're anti-straight? F-ck no it doesn't. It's a ludicrous generalization.
Each group of people isn't defined by their ability to marry one another. This is the mistake complainers are often guilty of making.
And no, they didn't make donations to anti-gay campaigns. They made donations to the organizations. What they then do with that money is not Chic Fil A's business. If I give you 50$ for a birthday present, then you donate that to Al-Queda, the media will portray me as supporting terrorism.
I don't like to jump to conclusions based on things I hear on the internet, and I do love that spicy chicken sandwich with a half and half sweet tea and waffle fries.

Is the shopping centre not responsible for the unlawful use of its equipment by its employees?


First, it's "center" not "centre". You may live in Australia, but you were born and raised here, so stop with the European "pinkies out" bullshit.

Second, yes, the mall is responsible for unlawful use of its equipment by its employees. I think it falls under Respondeat Superior, but I do believe this responsibility is limited. Aside from disciplining or firing the security guards who leaked the tape, I cannot see any further obligations necessary from the mall. Then again, I'm not a lawyer.

I'd suspect it works kind of like this. You can't hold McDonald's liable if some lunatic employee came into work and decided to shoot the place up. But if he sold a chicken sandwich as a burger and refused to fix the problem, then that would be different a violation of the contract between customer and McDonald's therefore McDonald's would be liable to fix it (redress). In the case of the mall security guard, they stole company property and published it on the web, and the mall has a reasonable obligation to fire or reprimand the employee and redress any damages which are none in this case. Zero. No rights were not infringed. There was no broken contracts, no damages, nothing.

Pinkies out.

According to this site, what happened prior to recording is as follows:

"A group of young men entered a Sydney Halal-friendly KFC, and as one of them requested bacon on his Dublicious chicken sandwich an Islamic man working fries turned around and demanded they leave. The manager intervened and that's when I grabbed my camera. Almost immediately the Islamic man turned on me."

Apparently it is real.

"Ahh I hit a bird!!! Okay, I'm calmed down now. Lets go get some Burger King... maybe a chicken sandwich..."

If you think it will boost sales, have at it. Maybe you want to consider "Why kronosposeidon is divorced." That way there will be an element of truth to it.

In reply to this comment by EDD:
OK, so I'll admit straight away that the idea was made purely with vote whoring in mind; nevertheless, I feel obliged to ask: is it OK with you, kind sir, if I rename this as of yet unsifted submission of mine "Kronosposeidon's early years"?

I realize this is something rottenseed would probably have done right away, knowing your relationship, and that it may be inappropriate of me (some noob, right?) to do it. This is why I chose to inquire beforehand - you may, of course, decline; if that is the case I will naturally respect your opinion (which, may I add, I have always done) and abandon this idea.
