Eat Less Chicken: Records Show that Chick-Fil-A Has Donated to All Sorts of Conservative-Bashing "Charities," Including the SPLC

Chick-Fil-A is now donating to the very group that put up the map that targeted the Family Research Council, previously one of of Chick-fil-A's supporters.

In 2017, the Chick-fil-A Foundation gave a generous donation to the anti-Christian Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), which several years ago inspired a potentially deadly domestic terrorist attack on the pro-family Christian organization.

The gunman, Floyd Corkins, stormed FRC headquarters in 2012 "armed with a semi-automatic pistol, 100 rounds of ammunition and 15 Chick-fil-A sandwiches," after he had seen the SPLC's "hate" map online....

"I wanted to kill the people in the building and then smear a Chick-fil-A sandwich in their face," Corkins would later tell the FBI.

The gunman had been enraged by the nationwide Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day, which was organized by conservative activists who wanted to show their support for the restaurant when it was under attack by LGBT activists and their supporters in the corporate media, as well as the Democrat Party....

In spite of all that, the SPLC still lists FRC-- previously one of Chick-fil-A's most vocal defenders--as a "hate group." The restaurant paid FRC back by donating to one of its worst enemies.

Get woke...

People probably won't boycott the store, but they'll almost certainly scale back the politcally-sympathetic overpatronage they were granting Chick-fil-A.

And you know, Popeye's does make a very good chicken sandwich now.
