Woah you had a gay friend! WOW, WHAT A RAINBOW PIONEER. Let me guess, your father was black too, right?
well at the conservative university I went too.. i sort of was! you may not believe it but in some places in the South in the late 80s it wasn't easy being openly gay, having a gay roomate, etc...it was overwhelmingly straight/fraternity bros sort of enviroment with a small fringe of artsy/gay/academic achievers.. .very "segregated" in some ways...
but it sounds to me like you just want to argue man so you'll find something and take off on it and disregard the rest! No skin off my nose. All I'm saying is ,as much as I will continue to boycott Chick Fil A, it is a little more complicated than they are evil!!!!!!!!!!! There have been other cases recently where people get their panties in a bunch and go postal on corporations or organizations that overall do a lot of good work even if they are on the wrong side on a specific issue/policy. Susan Komen, Target, etc. come to mind.
