Chicken lips are scarce

Great gay kiss-off lays a gigantic egg

This was billed as the greatest protest since Occupy Wall Street. Thousands of scantily clad gay men and lesbians said they’d lock lips in a coast-to-coast red-hot make-out session.

They were to blast anti-gay-marriage comments made by Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy. But gays preferred staying home to watch “The Real Housewives of New Jersey.”

Tumbleweeds could have rolled through the Paramus Park Mall in New Jersey yesterday as a symbol for the lack of stamina in the national kissing campaign.

From Georgia to California, protests drew yawns, not saliva.

Even in Atlanta, the home of Chick-fil-A, only two dozen kissers showed up. And there was a similar lack of necking in Chicago, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and San Francisco.

At NYU, 20 people weren’t allowed in the dorm that hosts the city’s only Chick-fil-A. Just three pairs of guys kissed on the street.

In Jersey, I only found eight kissers — and two weren’t even bi!

Giggling like overaged cheerleaders, Jessi Friechter, 42, and Claudia Campagna, 51, stared into each other’s eyes. And in full view of the Chik-fil-A neon sign, the coworkers pecked each other on the cheek — handing me an iPhone to record the event.

“My husband would love this,” teased Friechter.

Nearby, an older gent who refused to give his name was freaking out.

“That’s disgusting! That’s not why I came here,” he said.

“Why don’t they go to Sbarro and do that? Why don’t they go to Subway?”

So much for the kiss-fest. It couldn’t even draw New York’s Lesbian-in-Chief Christine Quinn, who wants to boot Chick-fil-A from the city.

This aged mall of dwindling splendor, where brow threading competes with bedazzlers, was supposed to be swarmed by thousands of folks protesting Cathy’s comments: “We are very much supportive of the family — the Biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives.”

    You must keep in mind that these folks must be organized,led and often paid to show up for leftist events. Free will is not a concept understood or embraced by whatever mush occupies their cranial cavities.

    Their problem is that their way of thinking only looks good to queers. Far from normal.

    Not one anti gay word was spoken, but this is why they still get mad. I won’t discriminate against gays. I would never harm or abuse a person because they are gay. I would never refuse them service, or housing, or decent treatment because they are gay. I won’t call them names because they are gay.
    But the other thing I won’t do is accept them as normal. I will never agree with the lifestyle. I will never treat it as equal to the straight lifestyle. That’s why they get mad. I won’t compromise and neither will millions and millions of other Americans. Gays don’t want to be equal, they want to RULE. That not HATE folks, that’s reality.

    So did anyone ask Dan Cathy the next day if that made him change his mind about gay marriage? Seeing a handful of sexual deviants reminding us how gross it is to see homosexual PDAs?

    Everyone has made a good point on this one and I would like to add the fact that there are not as many gay people out there as the left would like the rest of us to believe and many of them who are out there are more supportive of freedom of speech than same sex marriage. I know a conservative guy who is a gay American Indian, strongly opposes so called gay rights and he loves “Michelle Obama’s Mirror” so go figure..

    Next Thursday they’re holding an “AIDS-In”.

    The object is to pack the local RamRod club, have unprotected sex with dozens of same sex strangers, then blame Republicans for not having “awareness” when they get life threatening diseases.

    It can’t miss.

    @Grayjohn – my thoughts exactly.

    It’s about more than equality. It’s about making their lifestyle mainstream and considered being as normal as the sun rising in the east and setting in the west.

    I will have nothing of that.

    Why don’t they just open their own restaurant, call it Dick-fil-A, and do all their “business” there?
