#2 Other chains have no hope of catching up to Chick-fil-A in terms of being staffed by pleasant, well spoken employees who don't have gang tattoos on their necks.

#3 How's that boycott working?

The LGBT bunch will likely never attempt another boycott of Chick-fil-A. The parking lots were full, the stores were packed, the people had spoken. Corporate in Atlanta refused to divulge the financial profits Chick-fil-A reaped from the "boycott."

#4 If McDonalds and Wendys were smart they would add menu itens that would compete head to head with Chick-Fil-A, but todays executives are too focused on promoting stupid leftist policies and groups like LGBT, so they are not that smart.

#5 They could always boycott on Sundays and say they shut the business down

#7 You mean a business model where customers are treated well by normal people and the food is tasty as well is successful?!?!

Knock me over with a feather.

#9 In a world where fast food is slim pickings,
An experience straight outta Dickens,
Just one little chain
Still stands up to the strain
With its plucky Churchillian chikins. /dlf

#10 A couple of weeks ago son-in-law, grandson, and I were out on errands and decided to stop at Chik-fil-A to eat. No big decision, it was just handy. Ordered, paid, sat down and were served - looked at each other and said 'Huh, this is how it is done right.' I guess we were not the only ones.

#11 In-N-Out has the same business model (with biblical inscriptions) but open Sundays. I love patronizing both
