The Tolerance Police lines up on Chick-Fil-A for doubleplus ungoodthink:
Mayor Thomas M. Menino is vowing to block Chick-fil-A from bringing its Southern-fried fast-food empire to Boston — possibly to a popular tourist spot just steps from the Freedom Trail — after the family-owned firm’s president suggested gay marriage is “inviting God’s judgment on our nation.”
“Chick-fil-A doesn’t belong in Boston. You can’t have a business in the city of Boston that discriminates against a population. We’re an open city, we’re a city that’s at the forefront of inclusion,” Menino told the Herald yesterday.
“That’s the Freedom Trail. That’s where it all started right here. And we’re not going to have a company, Chick-fil-A or whatever the hell the name is, on our Freedom Trail.”
Chick-fil-A has been swept up in a growing national controversy over company president Dan Cathy’s remarks questioning gay marriage and lauding the traditional family.
But, but, but...the government is here to help businesses prosper.

I dislike that place anyway because apparently they only serve white meat.
Clearly, Chick-Fil-A is also racist.
How does one pronounce the name of this place?
Better "Chick-fil-A" than God's judgment, Boston. I say, let them in.
Marian,
It's a play on "filet", i.e., "fillay".
