How sad you feel this way. It's actually a tenant of my Christian faith. I'm sorry you doubt my sincerity.

No, it's a tenet of being a dick. Stop it. You don't get to tell someone "I still love you" while supporting their oppression. Stop that shit.

And I love you, hardened heart and all.

This shit? This shit is what I hate about your apparent brand of Christianity. How many chicken sandwiches did you buy for the poor and disadvantaged while you made a statement in favor of bigotry? Any? Do you follow any of the tenets of your religion besides "homosexuals are BAD" and "I'm going to tell people who rightfully are pissed off at me for being an asshole that I love them anyway, so that I can prove I'm turning the other cheek?"

No. It doesn't work that way. You can't play the "I love you any way" and "turn the other cheek" shit when it's your own bigotry that people are upset with.

And no, it's not freedom of speech. You support freedom of bigotry. Freedom to actively try to stand in the way of someone else getting the same civil rights that you enjoy. You don't get to turn your other fucking cheek from that.

So listen to this, you bigoted asshole. YOUR HATE FOR SEN WAS MADE APPARENT THE MOMENT YOU STEPPED ON CHICK-FIL-A'S PROPERTY IN SUPPORT OF THEIR BIGOTRY. You don't get to love him in spite of it. You don't get to love me in spite of my hardened heart - my heart is hardened against the injustice of jerks like you forcing your perverted view of Christianity on me and others.

You are the very definition of hypocrisy.

Now where is that Like button? This, this, this!

I think no one argues that freedom of speech isn't of utmost importance. However, if words turn in to actions, and those actions prevent another from living a fulfilling life, than, yes, I have a huge problem with that.

Personally, I haven't eaten at CFA in a while (may have something to do with their absence in Europe) but I don't believe for one second that a college educated person would think they were supporting freedom of speech when eating at CFA on that specific day. You were supporting bigotry, discrimination, fear and intolerance. And I think you should be profoundly embarrassed.

Not to mention that CFA Appreciation Day was proposed and planned BEFORE local politicians started expressing that maybe Chick-fil-A wasn't in line with their values. Mike Huckabee did call it originally for "free speech" but that's because Mike Huckabee doesn't know what the fuck "free speech" means.

But it's totally about free speech, right?

Surely you can understand why people would question that sincerity when your actions directly contradict your statement.
