Interesting/thoughts

I have started a few blog posts today... But I am going to go with this one.
I am not a huge fan of posting my thoughts on political issues...
but...I am going to go with this one.
Today is National Chick-Fil-A appreciation today.
Numerous Facebook posts were about going to eat there today.
From a single post stating the above, one knew what the person's stance was.
It's fascinating, going to eat at Chick-fil-a today, underlines a whole complex issue.
It means that you support traditional marriage, freedom of speech, and freedom to practice religion.
That's what America is about...right?
I couldn't help but smile every time I saw a post about Chick-fil-A.
Background article here
I loved this quote in the article
"Being against gay marriage is not being anti-gay.” 
 I couldn't agree more. 
The thing that I love most, is at these restaurants the lines were sometimes 2 hours long.
Yet, everyone was kind to each other.
Elderly and children were brought up to the front.
Everyone watched out for each other.
Would this have happened with a different type of crowd? 
Why wouldn't a person support a business that has morals?
They treat the customers and employees with upmost respect.
I have always been impressed with their service.
I am just confused why someone would boycott a restaurant,
because they stated their opinion.
When did America become...so complicated?
