Student group fears a Chick-fil-A on campus could put fragile safe space at risk
It seems hard to believe, but the backlash against Chick-fil-A has been smoldering since the summer of 2012, after founder Dan Cathy was quoted in the Baptist Press as saying he was “guilty as charged” when it came to believing in the biblical definition of the family unit. Twitchy has chronicled extensively the circus that followed, which included vandalism, performance art, viral freak-outs, and an attempted mass shooting. But it still seems incredible that in 2017, people are still losing their minds of the very presence of a Chick-fil-A franchise.
Campus Reform reports this week that the student government at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh has been asked to pass a resolution asking the school to reconsider plans for a Chick-fil-A Express to open on campus this fall.

Good point. They should open this Chick-Fil-A next to my house instead. https://t.co/e77nZb0LJa

“I’ve tried very hard within the last semester and a half to promote this safe environment for the LGBTQ+ community,” saidRachel Coury, president of the LambdaGay-Straight Alliance. “So I fear that with the Chick-fil-A that maybe people will feel that safe place is at risk.”
@Opheliaa_1 If you can't handle being near a fried chicken restaurant, maybe college is too scary for you

@Opheliaa_1 I fear their safe space will threaten my eating a delicious chicken sandwich.

@Opheliaa_1 Waffle fries will alleviate any fears.

@Opheliaa_1 The little preciouses should go somewhere else then if they are that delicate. If it's true, they should be embarrassed of their weakness.

@campusreform Not exactly the generation that stormed the beaches at Normandy.

@campusreform This is nothing more than an attempt at manipulation by weakness. Standard operating procedure of snowflakes and cry bullies.

@Opheliaa_1 I hate to think what the USA will be like in 30 years when these pansies run the show. I'll probably pray for the sweet release of death.

Students are stupid, and after we replace all the restaurant works with robots, students should be next. https://t.co/CigeRZSzqc

@gabrielmalor Job security for us older folk. No young hotshots coming out of school – they're all scared of the world and think they're owed things.
