I haven't stepped foot in a Chik-fil-A since I found out what you were about. I also fired off a letter to my youngest child's elementary school telling them it was wrong to have school spirit night at your hateful establishment. And they dropped you too. We go to a local Zaxby's now. It's no more than a tiny blip on your balance sheet, but I hope there are several such blips. I want to hear a mea culpa before I come off any of my hard-earned money.
