The above image via Daily Kos blogger and activist Scott Wooledge and Joe Jervis at Joe My God illustrates the ongoing effort to link Chick Fil-A to some of the truly nasty organizations that the company and the members of the Cathy family help to financially underwrite. For new readers, Family Research Council has been registered as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center – the same organization that
monitors KKK activities and Neo-Nazi groups.
Dan Cathy has disingenuously tried to claim that his remarks only deal with "protecting marriage" but the hate and outright animus that Chick Fil-A and the Cathy family are funding goes much, much further. They literally want to criminalize being gay. If a company funds a known hate group, what does that make the company? I would argue, it becomes a hate group as well.
