They aren't they only franchise on 125th St. It's mostly franchises now with managers that are just employees but they are all shut down. Not an excuse.
Chic-Fil-A does not do franchise stores. All are company owned.

This should have been addressed at the Regional/Corporate Manager level. And yeah, they should have respected the tradition.

Meh. Personally I feel like there are 100 other things going on right now that are more protest-worthy.

And Chick-Fil-A has always been pretty conservative/right-wing so people shouldn't really have been supporting them anyway.

No one is mad at the manager. We are mad at the franchise. Someone over him made the call. They need to be shamed for it in the Black community.
lol @ you jumping out the window for a fast food restaurant. Calm down, it's not that serious.

My brother in christ, they literally at the store harassing people? And again, likely neighbors and shyt. People who work there are likely from uptown.

I love me a boycott, but the behavior in the video is wild. And again, I’m all for protesting and shyt too. Wanna do it right outside the chik-fil-a? Sure! Genuinely believe that is a proper method to get things done


But you’re out here blocking the entrance and banging on windows and the staff is just tryna do their job and head home.

Besides just not buying food there, if all those people wrote to chik-fil-a and gave em heat I bet they would change their policy for next year.

But what is happening in the video isn’t productive it’s harassment and to the wrong people. Gotta know the audience

It's bad publicity for Chik Fil A. And has worked in the past see American Apparel example posted in this thread.
The workers had to deal with an unruly crowd for like 15 minutes tops. They'll be all right. Blame management for putting them in that position.
