Here We Go Again! Second Airport Bans Chick-fil-A

The Buffalo Niagara International Airport will not be home to a new Chick-fil-A after a Democrat lawmaker claimed the Atlanta-based restaurant chain is anti-gay.

The Buffalo Niagara International Airport will not be home to a new Chick-fil-A after a Democrat lawmaker claimed the Atlanta-based restaurant chain is anti-gay.

Plans were scuttled just 24 hours after the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority had announced its selection of Chick-fil-A.

New York Assemblyman Sean Ryan had raised objections over the restaurant chain’s values.

“We can’t allow companies who support anti-LGBTQ groups to do business at state owned facilities,” Ryan wrote on his official Facebook page. “Chick-fil-A has a long history of supporting and funding anti-LGBTQ organizations.”

That is a flat-out lie and the assemblyman should know better. But the truth doesn’t matter to anti-Christian bigots like Sean Ryan.

“I don’t believe the leadership of the NFTA intends to help spread hate and discrimination, but allowing a corporation like Chick-fil-A to do business at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport will help to fund continued divisive anti-LGBTQ rhetoric,” he wrote.

The San Antonio City Council recently blocked Chick-fil-A from opening a franchise, citing the company’s religious values.

City Councilman Roberto C. Treviño led the charge to block Chick-fil-A from opening a franchise in the airport. He accused the company of having a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior.

“With this decision, the City Council reaffirmed the work our city has done to become a champion of equality and inclusion,” Treviño said in a statement. “San Antonio is a city full of compassion, and we don’t have room in our public facilities for a business with a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior.”

The lawmakers made their decisions based on a hateful story published by Think Progress, a radical left-wing publication that despises Christians. The story outed several organizations that have benefited from Chick-fil-A’s charitable donations: the Salvation Army and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

Think Progress accused both groups of being anti-gay because they support traditional marriage and require members to follow the biblical mandates regarding sex.

Folks, there is a raging war against Christians in America and we must stand up and fight back — with righteous ferocity.

A militant mob of anti-Christian bigots wants to shut down every Christian-owned business in America. They want you to renounce your faith and follow their godless agenda. We must resist. And we must fight back.
