Controversy and outrage erupted when Chick-fil-A CEO, Dan Cathy said that he supported traditional marriage...."We are very much supportive of the family -- the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that." - Dan Cathy to the 'Baptist Press'.
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emmanuel also weighed in saying that he supported an Alderman's call to ban Chick-fil-A from their city..."Chick-fil-A values are not Chicago values," - Rahm Emmanuel...(The Chicago Alderman has also backed off his threat block Chick-fil-A as well).
No matter how you feel on gay marriage or any other subject, should an elected official be allowed use his position of authority in public office to assault and threaten people whose speech disagrees with their own personal and political beliefs?
I am always happier when I know what politicians think about God, marriage, family, the bible...
Chicago values.
LOL
