BOSTON (AP) — The mayor of Boston is vowing to block Chick-fil-A from
opening a restaurant in the city after the company's president spoke out
publicly against gay marriage.
Mayor Thomas Menino told the Boston Herald http://bit.ly/OevB9z ) on Thursday that he doesn't want a business in the city "that discriminates against a population."
Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy told the Baptist Press this week that his
privately owned company is "guilty as charged" in support of what he called
the biblical definition of the family.
The fast-food chicken sandwich chain later said that it strives to "treat
every person with honor, dignity and respect — regardless of their belief,
race, creed, sexual orientation or gender."
Atlanta-based Chick-fil-A has more than 1,600 stores nationwide but just two
in Massachusetts, both located in suburban malls. |
