Genius up there is actually right, but as usual, for the wrong reasons.
Mayors & such shouldn't be able to rule by fiat. (This isn't the same as Wal-Mart, there is hard evidence that Wal-Mart is bad for any given communities' economy.)
Chik-fil-a should be allowed to open. If the good people of Boston & Chicago really don't want a certain restaurant in their city they are free to ignore it.
If *no one* eats there, it will go under in about a month & a half & would basically guarantee that no one else tried to open another CFA in that area.
Alternatively, the city council could create legislation that states that any company, such as Chik-Fil-A, that donates to known hate groups aren't welcome in the city limits. Have it voted on in referendum. If it passes, the people have spoken & CFA can GTFO.
What's good for head shops & package stores, would also be good for bigots like Chik-fil-a.
