    Reallocating $44 Million out of the police budget to move to “community services and prevention fund.” is in essence defunding the police force, no matter how much lipstick you put on that pig (and no, no pun intended).

    You cribbed that right from the article....

    The few places they've reallocated resources seem to be getting positive results.... I'd wait and see before I crapped on a track many think is going to work...

    CFA did not fund anyone to do anything. And are you saying that any company which gave money to the sixth largest charity group in the country should be banned? Even just $5,750 that was disbursed to the thousands of individual charities this group disburses money?

    The question was how are they, CFA, not inclusive AT their restaurants which is being banned from the airport.

    Association of two children of the owner amounting to $5,750 in each of two years to the sixth largest charity group in the country which disburses funds to thousands of individual charities.

    So I want to see those who support this also start boycotting all the companies that have donated at least that amount and any retail store or restaurant company that does also be banned.

    boycott isn't the issue. The issue is the intolerant left denies entry to those they do not like.

    It's not even CFA that made the donation.

    Austin Texas had 38 murders in 2020. They cut 1/3rd of the police budget and they have 60 murders in the first 8 1/2 months of 2021.
    What city has gotten positive results?

    I'll answer your question if you can tell me exactly how many of those murders can be directly attributed to a budget cut??

    Edit - Also, if you continue to support the 1/6 insurrectionees, you will need to tell us which face you are speaking out of when you post...

    Very tribalized. Told a co-worker I picked up some lunch from there and she was "Uck... How can you eat that crap?". I was like "It's dam good and their business model is extremely sound.". Her response was "But they hate gay people". I knew the conversation was over right at that moment. Intellectually sharp as a bowling ball!

    Say's the person that supported the impeachment of a president for Quid Pro Quo, yet defending a VP who blatantly and unequivocally committed Quid Pro Quo.

    What a load... go get yourself some more Chick-Fil-A....

    Biden certainly ran a Quid Pro Quo, but it was legal and internationally supported...

    Also, if you must know, I didn't really support Impeachment 1A for the Zelensky call. That only opened the door to what was really going on...

    The house totally proved the case that T**** unilaterally withheld the military aid and the call was clear as to why he did.. Everybody commenting after the presentations said the same.... just didn't think they were removable acts.. I happen to disagree....

    I wonder how many who hate Chilfila, support the Palestinians, who toss gay people off rooves? And I wonder how many own IPhones and Apple products who funnel billions through China every year, a country that also hates gay people AND Muslims?

    Most likely, this group that stands to benefit financially from not peering with the amazingly popular Chik-Fil-A brand just hijacked the ignorance of LGBT proggie butthurt as an easy way to drive out competition that would surely crush them at the register.

    I think Chick Fil A has tried to appease the Nazi's by no longer giving charitable organizations that believe that marriage is only between a man and a woman. It doesn't seem to have slowed the hate driven their way. If they changed their views, fine, but if they are changing their behavior in order to appease the haters I don't know that it will do them a lot of good.

    Revenue was $4.3 billion in 2020 compared to $3.8 billion in 2019, an increase of 13%.

    Expenses were also up as they adjusted to the pandemic. Comprehensive earnings of $715.9 million in 2020 versus $647.2 million in 2019, an increase of 10.6%;

    They are successful because their chicken is frickin awesome. Would those that hate them try to sabotage their supply chain in order to poison their customers?

    As I've tried to point this out in this thread, this disgust of Chick-Fil-A by the KC City Council is nothing more than a woke reaction to Chick-Fil-A not supporting the gay lifestyle. Chick-Fil-A being for gay rights means nothing to woke groups like the KC City Council...Chick-Fil-A must be pro-gay to satisfy the woke KC council.

    The President has the authority to withhold aid AND with Hunters laptop we can see Trumps request was warranted.
