And in response to all the other comments...someone said something like it the other day here, but a few years ago I also heard some Danish politician say that if we want freedom that we don't have the right to not be offended. And that works both ways.

So now, at one of the CFA restaurants here, they're having a *kiss-in* I think I want to roll my eyes.

Why are you rolling your eyes?

Truth!
I wonder how they would feel if non-hetero couples showed up...
Would they have them forcibly removed?
Our body is our subconscious mind, and anybody who thinks that their conscious mind is running the show is seriously mistaken. In fact the conscious mind just may be the most narcissistic entity in the universe, it thinks it's running the show. It's not.

Not really rolling~ it's just that it's non-productive~ just turns it into a media circus. Maybe what bothers me about this demonstration is that it seems to have rallied the bigots.
I really liked that blog post~ makes you think, gives perspective. I've never been to a CFA~ certainly have no desire to go now.
AFAIK, this is a same sex kiss-in~

I'm late to the party, but let me get this straight(haha).....So they are gonna show up and order something and pay just so that they can sit there and make out for a bit?
Seems sorta counter productive doesn't it?
I mean they do have to order something don't they? That is still a rule when you walk into a fast food joint these days isn't it?
