Chick-fil-A franchisee gives free chicken to pro-equal marriage demonstrators

Corey Braun, of the Chick-fil-A in Rancho Cucamonga gave out the tickets to equal marriage supporters at a local demonstration, and said he hoped it would change people’s perception of the company, which was in the spotlight when its COO spoke out against equal marriage last year.

Back in July, the COO of Chick-fil-A, Dan Cathy, publicly confirmed that the company was opposed to equal marriage.

Cathy told the Baptist Press that the company was “guilty as charged”, when asked about its perceived opposition to equal marriage.

There was then a drawn-out mix of messages coming out of the company over several months, some seeming to suggest that executives wanted to distance Chick-fil-A from the controversy, others confirming that it has maintained its anti-gay policy. The Chick-fil-A statement released said it intended “to leave the policy debate over same-sex marriage to the government and political arena.”
