Take That, Chick-fil-A: NYC Restaurant to Donate to Marriage Equality USA

(http://www.advocate.com/sites/advocate.com/files/imagecache/stories/SCHNIPPERSX400.jpg)

Schnipper's Quality Kitchen, an American-style restaurant in New York City, announced Tuesday via their Facebook page that they would donate a portion of proceeds to the nonprofit organization Marriage Equality USA.

Undoubtedly jabbing at chain competitor Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy's stance against marriage equality, Schnipper's will donate $1 from every purchase of a Schnipper's Chicken Filet Sandwich throughout the month of August to Marriage Equality USA.

The restaurant's Facebook page reads, "A truly good Chicken Filet Sandwich would always be in favor of Marriage Equality. Ours is the best you’ll ever have since its made from fresh chicken breasts and hand dipped to order in our seasoned corn flour blend and buttermilk. It’s super crispy and it’s gluten free! The sandwich is tasty – Marriage Equality is timely."

And we 'Conservatives are supposed to do what, William - whine about the H8?  Boycott Schnipper's Quality Kitchen?  Disgust all the patrons with a heterosexual kiss-in?   :whatever:

Of course they probably raised the price of their chicken sandwich by $2 to make more money off the haters that want to boycott Chick-Fil-A.  It's looks like they are supporting the queers, but their just pandering to make an extra quick buck.   :-)

Are they doing this at both of their locations or just at one? Regardless, I'm sure that Chick-fil-A and their 1600+ locations are nervous about this.

My question too.

By the way, from the image, it looks as if the place needs a neon refurbishing, to light up that one letter again; poor maintenance of equipment is not the sign of a prospering business.

I wonder how money given to "Marriage Equality USA" is used to promote sodomy.

The whole democrat party has been working on it nonstop for years, so it seems unlikely an obscure "charity" is having much effect.

I'd be willing to bet a lot of people haven't heard of them and they are using this kerfuffle as a clever marketing ploy to attract more customers.

Psst...hey DUmmies...this place is doing this...are you ready...TO MAKE MORE MONEY!

No, actually, NYC is THAT expensive.  They charge $5-6 for a basic cheeseburger.  That's probably a loss leader there, given the sky-high rents, taxes, kickbacks to contractors/inspectors/Bloomberg, etc.

Yeah, I really want to be in a city where I can't see more than a few blocks in any direction, where a beer costs $7 at "Happy Hour" to $14/pack for smokes (and I don't even smoke.)

Oh, and parking your car costs $40/day.

This is a private business, they can do whatever they want with their money and operate under whatever philosophy they care to.  This concerns me not in the least.  


Frank, I agree.  They really need to fix the signage (especially in the word "quality").  Pet peeve of mine.  The Burger King here had on their sign:

NEW
BBQ MENU

The N slipped off, and it now says

EW

It's been days.  If you were the manager, wouldn't you fix stuff like that right away?

Ok, I'll say it. The name Schnipper's sounds the ghey.

Thank you.  It's also a silly, stupid name, and I wouldn't go in just for that.

Someone in line said the Commerce, GA location was so jammed that cars were at a standstill on I-85 trying to get in.

I'm having a great time watching the Democrats, liberals, and primitives trying to downplay this phenomenon as "meaningless" or "irrelevant."

By ignoring such social movements and causes, discounting them as unimportant, they're in for an even bigger shock 96 days hence.

Real big of him to do this in his car where he escape.  From the comments at youtube, he was shamed into taking his video down, but other people put it back up.

My question too.

By the way, from the image, it looks as if the place needs a neon refurbishing, to light up that one letter again; poor maintenance of equipment is not the sign of a prospering business.

Made all the better by the irony that it is a letter from the word "quality".

He's taking a lot of heat on Twitter, good!

UPDATE: Adam Smith, an investment banker and Adjunct Lecturer at a Liberal college, scrubbed his LinkedIn profile last night too. Evidently, abusing a young working woman did not win him much praise on the internet.

I have to give a lot of praise to the cops for yesterday. They were awesome through the whole thing. They deserve to be thanked and appreciated for it.

Wife and I were coming back from NC, and decided to stop at a CFA for lunch. 

The exit was a half mile from the store, and traffic was already backed up past there!

Last night, we stopped at a CFA in the Four Seasons Mall in Greensburo, NC.  The store was located on the 3rd floor, at the food court with several other fast food places.

CFA had 40-50 people at their location, the rest had 3-4 each.   :lmao:

And those other places were probably thinking "Why didn't I think of doing what Chick-Fil-A did?"  :lmao:

It seriously wouldn't surprise me if another company came out said the same thing as Chick-Fil-A to dry and drum up some business.

I was in Point Loma today, so I stopped for lunch at a CFA on Sports Arena Blvd.  The line was out the door and the drive thru was wrapped around the parking lot.  First time I ever ate there, the food was good and the service was great.  I was kind of creeped out by the lady who took my order, she must have used the phrase "It's my pleasure" 15 times during our 2 minute interaction.
