Never Mind, Chick-Fil-A Still Has a Way To Funnel Cash to Anti-Gay Marriage Groups
Remember when we told you that Chick-fil-A had promised a Chicago alderman that it would no longer donate money to groups fighting to block same-sex marriage?
Well, while that may be technically true, it appears as though there is a giant loophole in the chicken chain's new unconfirmed policy that allows it to funnel large amounts of cash to its CEO's "biblical" cause anyway.
The Advocate explains:
Although the company's [WinShape Foundation] might not be donating directly, Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy tweeted a photo on Tuesday from the 2012 WinShape Ride for the Family. He wrote alongside the picture of a pack of motorcyclists: "WinShape Ride for the Family bikers locked and loaded for 200 mile ride to Wilmington out of Charleston."
That long ride is a fundraiser for an organization that helps lobby against marriage equality. Registration forms for the event ask that checks be sent, not to the WinShape Foundation that Chick-fil-A operates, but directly to the Marriage and Family Foundation at 5200 Buffington Road in Atlanta, Ga. [an address now shared by Chick-fil-A's headquarters].

There was some hope in our household (the 3-year-old loved the person in he cow suit), but Mrs. Robb stressed caution.
Didn't take long. Bigotry rises.
