What did the new members do wrong?

Sadly it is true. Not everything in the Constitution is morally correct. What is in there is "necessary" for continuation of a nation. For example, when a criminal walks because procedure according to the constitution was violated, the victim gets violated twice. That's immoral, but to otherwise would make the Constitution useless.
What you like to mock about states rights is constitutional.
Even if true, his personal "racist" views are constitutional, as long as he doesn't make what your irrational fears into real laws.
My view of him is as an ineffectual lunatic. But your views are slanderous and have no basis in reality other than to insight others to your lefty fear mongering hatred.

I would support it too! I just got two problems with it, I'm vegan and it's bigoted. I'll fatten a faux chicken hawkers pockets, I'm not afraid of greedy men wanting to earn a living just like me.

Where I would support them, nothing like a two faced organization that makes a profit from a group and uses that profit to pay to torment them. I don't understand why you would be against their discriminating against gays by not selling them sandwiches but have no problem with their funding organizations that discriminate against them on a wider scale.
Their patronage is A OK but they themselves are not - hypocritical in the extreme.

It's just a chicken joint. Why is it necessary for those who think they are right to shove their ideaology down others throats? Is it not possible for people to respect a difference of opinion?

Because the one side actually believes that it is the majority's obligation and moral imparative to deny rights to a minority. Most of us find this repugnant. My "shoving my ideology" down the throat of a believer in white slave trade for instance, is somewhat acceptable. I do not respect the difference of opinion of someone who is willing to inflict pain upon another group who has done nothing to the first except be an affront to their sense of morality.

I fail to see what pain is being inflicted other than on a chicken joint with employees who have bills to pay and families to feed. Your ideaology to me seems over the top in this. No I do not share the chicken joint owners opinion But I have to respect his right to have it or I would be a hypocrite in my own eyes. That doesn't mean going along with him either. I spent many years organizing protests- for things like equal rights.

When people have something like this to get all bent out of shape over they are able to gloss over much more important wrongs that we should be fighting to right.

Contributing millions to organizatons that expressly hate gays in a variety of ways is what I believe to be inflictions of pain. I recall a documentary about the engineering companies in Nazi Germany who devised more efficient ways to incinerate bodies. Those engineers had families and were just trying to put schnitzle and potatoes on their family tables.

It's all about rights. I don't share or push my opinion on others. that's my right as well. I'm just thankful that I was born in California!

Right but they were contributing to the murder/ genocide of an entire people not serving chicken or cooking it. I know muslims, jews and a couple of catholic priests who I really do not care for should I protest them too? Or just respect their right to believe differently than I.

They are working for a man who siphons millions of the money they help him earn into the persecution of a group of humans who have done absolutly nothing to infringe upon the rights of that man.

so mr Cathy is racist and homophobic for stating he believes in "traditional marriage", and he should be silenced, and prohibited from donating to causes that he supports to protect the first amendment rights of homosexuals.
meanwhile your demand that he be silenced or prevented from donating to causes he supports is just your first amendment rights.
you gotta let out the clutch before the gears will engage bro.

When you say persecute, I am not aware of this persecution. Is it violent or political? Is it just donating money to campaigns that oppose gay marriage? When republicans go after unions to interfere with democrats getting money for their campaigns is it like that or what?

No no no Doc, this has nothing to do with his beliefs and it has nothing to do with his "support" of "traditional marriage". It has to do with his financial support of organizations that seek to disrupt and torment gays. Were he to simply "support traditional marriage" then he would be sending money to churchs and perhaps personally boycotting gay marriages but he goes much further than that.

Specifically how? I'm trying to understand this protest - he goes much further - is he funding skinhead attacks on gay weddings?
