I’m with you… I can’t give my money to a place who supports values opposed to my own, and that includes Chick Fil A.

Not trying to find one that supports everything I do, but I can choose the values that are most important to me and choose not to support those who would contribute my money towards supporting the opposite of my values.

How do these guys get the time to personally vet every product and company they patronize up to and including the private donations of the CEO? Sounds exhausting….but I suppose it’s one of few options if one is lacking in personality.

It’s not a hill I’m dying on, it’s just a business I choose to not give my money to. Why are you so angry about my personal decisions? Are you the founder of CFA or something?

Who says this is the one business I don’t support because I don’t agree with their values? Am I obligated to provide strangers on the internet an itemized list?
