5 Guys has inedible fries. Damn I was disappointed.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Look, I don't like asshole preachers any more than anyone else does, but who am I to tell anyone how to run their business?

Gotta agree with Rexy on this one. Unless they're refusing service to gays/atheists/non-christer religious folk, then there's really nothing to get upset about. Just as Hobby Lobby and Chick-Fil-A are free to close their doors every Sunday, so Sonic is free to put christer tags on the bags. It's up to you whether to patronize them or not. Personally, I've never been a huge fan, especially with a Good Times within walking distance of the house when I'm in the mood for cheap, quick and relatively tasty burgers.

I don't go to Sonic regardless.  However, I could see me posting here about some ironically inappropriate verse I might find on the tab, and probably enjoying the hell out of doing so.

No, it really isn't cause for outrage.  Laughter perhaps, but not outrage.  Preaching in public is and should be legal, just like any other form of free speech.  There's no reason why a business can't preach.  However, it might get kind of fun should they hire a Jew, Muslim, Hindu, or atheist, who refuses to put the labels on for religious reasons.  I'd love to see the reasonabe accommodation suit.

RRRR . . . (heavy sigh).  Dammit, Jenny . . . you're right.

I hate it, but you're right.  Just like Hobby Lobby can paint Bible verses all over their walls, and print out verses on their receipts . . . it's a private business, these breathing piles of shit can do whatever they want, as long as they serve every customer equally, and don't discriminate with their employees.  

Dammit.  But if those verses WERE from the Koran, the building would have been torched by now.  It's not right.  It's just not right.  

But yeah, you're right.  Now I feel a little silly for starting this thread.  Sorry folks.    Undecided

Yes, but we can "pray" for that reasonable accommodation suit.

Portland sounds like a great place though.

Oh, those nutballs. That's about as far from Portland as you can get politically, and by distance in state. Geographically the state is largely conservative but in terms of voters, it leans liberal.

Absolutely nothing to apologize for. It's not like you took exception to people disagreeing with you and started flaming left, right and center. Angel
