    Students and faculty across the country have tried to ban otherwise disparage the popular fast food chain, Chick-fil-A.

    Campus Reform created a map to show the extent of the years-long chicken chain controversy.

This is really disturbing.  This is a concerted, organized, large-scale effort to ruin Chik-fil-A and not because the company has done anything wrong, but because the founder expressed an opinion years ago that wasn't in agreement with the party line.

The Left are highly unified, organized to execute these moves.

And  the Right are naive, unorganized, and sadly not playing hard enough.

It is more important to the left to win than it is to the right.

That pretty well sums it up.

I have been criticized by #nevertrumpers "Republiconservatives" here, for "winning" as the highest priority.

In CA we have a chain called "In n Out" burgers. They have Bible versus on the packaging (wrappers, cups, etc).

I will not be surprised if some group goes after them. They are famiy owned, pay higher, serve good food.

We have In-n-out Burgers here now too!  They're pretty good.

They are awesome.  Towns in Texas that have both an In and Out ......   and a Whataburger live in fast food hamburger heaven.

There is a Chick-fil-A close to us and there is a line of cars going through the drive-in line any time of the day.

Chick-fil-A  since 1946, suburb of Atlanta.

In n Out, since 1948, suburb of Los Angeles.

The latter is yet to be attacked by the effed up left. (that I know of)

When they do, they will be opposed by happy young, well paid young workers. The corporation has done "good works," for decades.


I doubt protesters willl find support, to block the doors and drives into these outlets.

The left, Marx, Alinsky never rest however.

My alumnus is the second one, Trinity University. It was a small group of activist students who tried it but the university reject it and most students supported CFL.

Same. There is one across from my office and the lines always go around the block and into the Wal Mart parking lot  next to it.  They have even had to get police traffic control during very busy times like when high school football games let out or Black Friday.

Fine with me.  Chick-fil-A means part-time jobs for these students.  If they don't want those jobs, CFA can come to my neighborhood where the unemployed might be happy to work for them.

There is a CFA in the mall where I go walking.  At lunchtime, the mall puts out those "ropes" like you see at a bank in an effort to control the crowd and keep the lines from blocking the way for shoppers to get into and out of the mall food court.  When the LGBTUVWXYZ bunch had their "boycott Chick-fil-A" thing a few years ago, you couldn't get near a CFA.  I even went online and bought CFA gear (a t-shirt and lounge pants) just to show my support. 

CFA is pretty good for fast food.  People like it and really don't give a flying fig about the company owner's religious beliefs.  I don't see CFA going under anytime soon.

I wonder if the average unengaged middle of the roader ever stops to consider the base hateful, vicious attitude of the typical leftist activist and notices the incongruity between it and the high-sounding noble words he or she use to describe their values and motivations.

I think we all wonder that on occasion.

And that's why they keep winning.

Want our side to start winning?

Then... learn to play by leftist/communist rules.
Realize that in at least some cases, the end IS justified by the means required to achieve it.

If we're unwilling to accept that hard reality, well... better get used to losin', as usual.
