Assault On Free Speech

[Reforged]

Dude. I thought this was a family forum.

Again, that was not an answer to the questions I was asking. If I was asking if you thought what the mayor did was right then it would be. If I asked if you have the right to order business owners around then alright. But those are not the questions I am asking.

"Is it not a severe violation of the obligation between supplier and consumer to provide an unbiased service to a market in demand of it?"
"Does this conduct not qualify as severely unethical?"
Its that simple, thats all I'm asking. Everything else in the paragraph I wrote is just an explanation of those questions.
If you don't want to answer those questions thats cool but at least tell me thats whats going on otherwise we're both wasting our time here.

What you're asking is not just a simple yes or no question. In the legal sense Chick-fil-A broke no laws. To your first question, the business owner is a private citizen who has every right to his opinions. If citizens don't like the business owners positions they can take their money elsewhere. Public office holders are entitled to their personal opinions as well but their first obligations are to provide equal protection under the law to everyone without bias. As far as what's ethical, it depends on which side of the issue you're on. Wouldn't you agree? No to both questions.

I did not ask if any laws were broken. I did not ask what the customers can do in response. I did not ask what the obligations of public office holders are.
None of these have anything to do with the business ethics of Chick-fil-A in its conduct.

"Is it not a severe violation of the obligation between supplier and consumer to provide an unbiased service to a market in demand of it?"
"Does this conduct not qualify as severely unethical?"

Your answer to both questions is no. This implies you do not believe their actions to have been biased, a violation of trust or unethical.
Fair enough, by that logic I assume you wouldn't mind a privately owned business very vocally promoting homosexuality moving into your neighbourhood then?
