Oh, I know. I've kept in touch with people who didn't wise up like I did. It would have been just a bit better if the company didn't violate my First Amendment rights by forcing me to handle customers I didn't want to handle, though.
Sounds like you exercised your freedom to choose and quit. Good for you.

How exactly did a bunch of Christians going to lunch at Chick-Fil-A. harm gays?
They harmed the gays by showing that anti-gay bigotry is profitable.

So they will only open their stores in conservative areas, thus allowing them to profit off their bigotry. As long as the niche is available, stores will take it.

I am okay with you having an opinion about how the world should be ruled. I only have a problem when you try to force your opinion onto my action.
And why is his/her opinion less valid?
You think people should be allowed to discriminate against gays if they wish to. That will leave the gays without wealth, without power, without sway. Either you don't realize this, or you don't care whether the gays have a voice.
Blacks after slavery would have in a generation or two acquired wealth and power if the whites didn't initially price their labor out of the market with a minimum wage.
Then to correct the discrimination against blacks, the government decided to implement laws and regulations that discriminated against whites.
We would have been better off if the government just stayed out from the start.
Let people be free.....they can accomplish great things if you do.
