You can pretend it's just about CFA and standing up for your local store, but people do that but patronizing their local CFAs anyday of the week (except Sunday, Dr. Phil). Going yesterday was a political statement.
Sure. It was a political statement in support of Chick-fil-a. A business they like and support had been attacked in the media and a particular day had been declared to rally, so they did.

I'm taking your "opposite end of this agenda" to mean same-sex marriage haters, and while I think conservative Christians were well-represented yesterday, I think a lot of folks made the point to go some so much because of marriage, but more of a "I'll defend your right to say it" kind of view.

And maybe I'll concede that the average Chick-fil-a fan may not be normal. People have been known to camp out for store openings to win free food for a year. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/0...n_1594165.html
