San Antonio Bans Chick-fil-A from Airport for Lack of LGBTQ Support

WARNER TODD HUSTON23 Mar 2019241

The San Antonio city council has moved to ban fast food giant Chick-fil-A from the city’s airport because the company is famously supportive of traditional Christian values.

District 1 City Councilman Roberto Treviño entered a motion on March 19 to approve the city’s Food, Beverage and Retail Prime Concession Agreement but added a clause to ban the nation’s favorite fast food company from the list of vendors eligible to open a kiosk at the San Antonio International Airport.

“With this decision, the City Council reaffirmed the work our city has done to become a champion of equality and inclusion,” Treviño said, according to NBC News 4. “San Antonio is a city full of compassion, and we do not have room in our public facilities for a business with a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior”.

Chick-fil-A was initially set to be one of the airport’s restaurant offerings, but the councilman’s motion came on the heels of a report by extremist organization Think Progress that highlighted the $1.8 million in donations to Christian groups that Chick-fil-A reported to its shareholders.

“Everyone has a place here, and everyone should feel welcome when they walk through our airport,” Treviño added. “I look forward to the announcement of a suitable replacement.”

Chick-fil-A called the attack “disappointing.”

“We would have liked to have had a dialogue with the city council before this decision was made. We agree with Councilmember Treviño that everyone is and should feel welcome at Chick-fil-A. We plan to reach out to the city council to gain a better understanding of this decision,” the fast food giant said in a statement.

According to the city, the new restaurants now include Smoke Shack BBQ and Southern Kitchen, Boss Wood Fired Bagels & Coffee, Sip Brew Bar and Market, and Local Coffee.

The concession agreement is a seven-year contract according to reports.

In some places they already are.

This is nothing more than persecuting people who hold Christian values.

If someone from LGBT went to a Muslim bakery to have them make them a wedding cake they would be turned down immediately. Double standards and double justice is being applied. Christian's are being treated like second class citizens. Christian's are going to have to stand up for their values or be persecuted in the process--even in America.

Yep. Some animals are more equal than others. On the one hand, this is an attack on what is seen as a Christian business. No doubt about that. For balance, you can rest assured that Christian Zionists like Pence are able to use government to implement their religious beliefs. That is one area where the mix of religion and politics is encouraged.

Does Chik-Fil-A refuse to serve people because of their LGBT status? That is the only relevant question.

San Antonio airport is laid out kind of shitty for vendors . Once you get to your gate there is probably room for one bar and one eating establishment and that is about it which seems good because you will get all the business but in reality probably not as much as you would like to go with that high rent .

My town is really pro-LGBTQHB and they are also very anti-fast food drive-thru for environmental reasons (cars on, spewing out pollution while waiting for food). There are a few drive-thrus that have been grandfathered in, but otherwise they are banned. The only new one I remember opening up in the last 20 years was for coffee.

When the chik-fil-a opened up here a few years ago, they took over a burger king store that closed down or something that had a drive-thru. They had some protests for the LGBTQHB stuff when they opened.

But as a supreme fuck-you to the Jacobins, the drive-thru line often goes all the way out into the street, taking away the right lane on the main stream through town. Part of the reason is because they are so popular, but the other reason is because they are one of the few drive-thrus in town. It can cause some major traffic and back-ups. Jack in the box has a virtual monopoly on them with 3 of 3 having a drive-thru and of the six McDonalds in town only 2 have drive-thrus.

In-n-out has one too. They get the award for the longest drive-thru line, but they have a giant parking lot that holds up to about 25 minute wait (I've waited at least that long before..)

Because of the severe limitations on space and lack of choice for travelers. It would be more than reasonable for the airport to require businesses to be open during the busy travelling days/hours. The LGBTWTF reason is bullshit though.

If the mall is open on sundays is it also a reasonable requirement that chick-Fil-a stores inside the mall are open too?

Does the car rental place have to stay open 24/7 while the airport is open as well?

It’s not even the issue. The only reason the airport decided against this restaurant is because it donates to Christian causes. Clear discrimination in my book.

Obviously the City Council was explicit that it was about the LGTB excuse.

As to whether a food concession contract might specify how often a place needs to be open, the reasons have already been discussed. An airport is not a random place of business, people are essentially trapped, and choices are limited.

Ya, once in a while I will wait it out.. but to be honest, I would probably eat there 10 times more often if they could consistently cut the wait time in half. I believe MANY others feel the same way, yet you still have a ridiculous wait times all the time.

The town I live in could definitely support two In-n-outs with the existing customers they already serve.. then add in the customers like me who would go a lot more but don't want to wait, and customers who are closer to the new location and they go more since it is more convenient.

The first problem you have is the drive-thru issue (remember, they are banned). The second issue they have is they put the existing one in a central location in town. If they built on on the east end of town, then a lot of people in the middle would end up going to the central one anyway, they get everybody on the west end of town and the new one wouldn't get a ton of business. If they built one on the far west side of town, you have the same issue.. most people will go to the central one and there won't be as much customers at the other one.. but I guess that would cut down on their wait time and maybe more people would go there because of that.

The third issue is there aren't a lot of good places to build one.. except for across the street from where the one that exists already is. To be honest, I've thought that wouldn't be a bad idea. Just open another one across the street. It would be more convenient and the old one would lose a lot of business, but as soon as the lines in the new one start getting long, which they will, people will just flow over to the old one.

The trick to making In-n-out fries better is to either order them "well done" or "animal style". You can also order them "well done animal style".

For animal style they will put cheese, grilled onions and thousand island dressing on top.

If In-n-out wanted to make their fries better, I think it is just a matter of doing a double fry. Fry them once for a bit, then take them out and let them cool a little, then fry them again.

Texas AG to Investigate San Antonio Ban on Chick-fil-A for Christian Values

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/03/29/texas-ag-to-investigate-san-antonio-ban-on-chick-fil-a-for-christian-values/

DR. SUSAN BERRY29 Mar 2019

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said Thursday he plans to investigate whether the San Antonio City Council violated the First Amendment when it banned Chick-fil-A from participating as a vendor at the city’s airport because of the restaurant’s support for Christian values:

“The City of San Antonio’s decision to exclude Chick-fil-A based on the religious beliefs associated with the company and its owners is the opposite of tolerance,” tweeted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton Thursday. “It’s discriminatory, and not only out of step with Texas values, but inconsistent with the Constitution and Texas law.”

Robert Treviño, San Antonio District 1 City Councilman, moved last week to ban the privately held, family-owned business from its list of airport vendors. Six council members approved the motion to ban Chick-fil-A, while four voted against it.

“With this decision, the City Council reaffirmed the work our city has done to become a champion of equality and inclusion,” Treviño said, according to NBC News 4. “San Antonio is a city full of compassion, and we do not have room in our public facilities for a business with a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior.”

Paxton also on Thursday asked Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao to look into whether the city broke any federal law or regulation as a recipient of federal grant funds.

In a letter to Chao, Paxton said the city’s action could violate the free exercise clause of the First Amendment. He added that it also could violate federal statutes and regulations that prohibit discrimination on the basis of creed.

“Ironically, the city’s efforts to be ‘inclusive’ resulted in the exclusion of Chick-fil-A based on its religious beliefs,” Paxton wrote to Chao.

The news report noted as well that Councilman Greg Brockhouse, who is running for mayor against Nirenberg, responded to Paxton’s announcement about his investigation by calling on the City Council to reconsider its decision.

“This investigation is the result of the City Council’s horrible decision to punish Chick-fil-A for their constitutionally protected rights to freedom of religion,” Brockhouse said. “The City Council must immediately reconvene on this item … to consider revoking this vote moving forward with Chick-fil-A as part of the contract.”

Breitbart News reported on Treviño’s motion to ban Chick-fil-A:

Chick-fil-A was initially set to be one of the airport’s restaurant offerings, but the councilman’s motion came on the heels of a report by extremist organization Think Progress that highlighted the $1.8 million in donations to Christian groups that Chick-fil-A reported to its shareholders.

“Everyone has a place here, and everyone should feel welcome when they walk through our airport,” Treviño added. “I look forward to the announcement of a suitable replacement.”

Chick-fil-A states on its website that the company continues to uphold the biblical principles that guided the founding of its business by S. Truett Cathy. The company has given financial support to Christian youth organizations and charitable groups, such as the Salvation Army.
Chick-fil-A continues:

While some have questioned the motives behind our donations, we want to take a moment to reiterate the mission and focus of the Chick-fil-A Foundation, which has always been and always will be to donate to programs that support a diverse array of youth and educational programs nationwide. The 140,000 people who serve customers on a daily basis represent and embrace all people, regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender identity.

According to the restaurant’s website, in 2018, Chick-fil-A was presented with a Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Award for being among the top 100 best places to work. Additionally, Chick-fil-A was included in Glassdoor’s Top 100 CEOs.

Also, in 2018, Chick-fil-A was recognized for customer experience in the Temkin Experience Ratings survey, and was named “Best Franchise Brand” by Airport Revenue News.

Chick-fil-A was included as well in 2018 in Forbes’ list of best employers and as a National Society of High School Scholars top employer.

An airport in New York has rejected Chick-fil-A from an upcoming food court project, making it the second airport to ban the restaurant in as many weeks.
On Friday, Democratic New York State Assemblyman Sean Ryan applauded the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (NFTA) for its decision to ban the restaurant from the Buffalo Niagara International Airport over so-called anti-LGBTQ practices.

Update: I applaud the decision that has been made to remove Chick-fil-A from plans for the Buffalo Niagara International Airport. Thank you to everyone who reached out to share their opinion. pic.twitter.com/HA5t1CjwkV (https://t.co/HA5t1CjwkV)
— Assemblyman Sean Ryan (@SeanMRyan149) March 29, 2019 (https://twitter.com/SeanMRyan149/status/1111666523524026373?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)

“Earlier today I spoke with the vendor of the Buffalo Airport food court project, and they informed me they will not be opening a Chick-fil-A as a part of their airport project,” Ryan wrote in a statement Friday. “A publicly financed facility like the Buffalo Niagara International Airport is not the appropriate venue for a Chick-fil-A restaurant. I applaud the decision that has been made to remove Chick-fil-A from the plans for this project. We hope in the future the NFTA will make every effort to contract with businesses that adhere to antidiscriminatory policies, and we’re confident another vendor who better represents the values of the Western New York community will replace Chick-fil-A as a part of this project in the very near future.”
The announcement comes one day after Ryan penned a statement criticizing the NFTA’s move to allow Chick-fil-A, after last week’s decision by the San Antonio city council to ban the restaurant from its city airport.

I'm disappointed in the @NFTA (https://twitter.com/nfta?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) decision to bring a Chick-fil-A to the @BUFAirport (https://twitter.com/BUFAirport?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw). pic.twitter.com/zP0oIUOz3q (https://t.co/zP0oIUOz3q)

“I was disappointed to learn of the NFTA’s decision to introduce Chick-fil-A as a restaurant option at the Buffalo-Niagara International Airport,” Ryan wrote Thursday. “Chick-fil-A has a long history of supporting and funding anti-LGBTQ organizations.

Delaware North, the company that runs the food operations at the Western NY airport, had plans to renovate the food options by adding a Chick-fil-A. The Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority approved tentative plans Thursday for the process to move forward.

Ryan voiced concerns Thursday asking the NFTA to reverse its decision. He stated that an anti-LGBTQ company should not be allowed to operate in a taxpayer-funded public facility.
