its only a "flare-up" for those who love sin and hate the first amendment; this chain will keep growing - just wait for tomorrow and you will see the support
some MCD and KFC restaurants are supporting them

"The chain has the biggest sales per unit in fast-food, according to QSR Magazine. In 2011, the company generated gross sales of $2.9 million per location, outpacing the average unit sales of runner-up McDonald’s Corp. (MCD) by $400,000, the magazine said in its August 2012 issue"

and this with much smaller stores than MCD

Keep in mind that $2.9 million average sales is done in only
six days per week vs. all seven for all other brands.

The newer stores are most certainly NOT smaller than McDonald's.

the appreciation day tomorrow will be off the charts for sales and revenues;
the more they are attacked by the mayors of chicago and boston and DC and hollywood the more they will succeed

Too bad it's privately held, I'd love to buy in.

MCD and YUM have all international presence. After a recent visit to China it is clear that the US market is not the main one for brands such as MCD and YUM. As long as Chick-Fil-A stays in the US, MCD and YUM should not be concerned at all. Not everything has to do with the US market - this is a global economy!

Chick-fil-A will remain a regional stronghold in the South that leads the nation in illiteracy; creationist teaching in schools, hence the nation's lowest science scores; abstinence as the sole method of pregnancy prevention, hence also leads in new aids contraction; and still leads the nation in cancer, heart disease, diabetes and hypertension.

No wonder Southern residents are flocking there. They don't know any better.
