The debate over Chick-Fil-A coming to Forest City NC has been a hot topic for months. On one hand, many citizens are adamantly opposed to the chain restaurant coming to their town.
They cite Chick-Fil-A’s controversial history of donating to anti-gay groUPS, as well as their past donations to the anti-gay marriage initiative in Florida as reasons to keep the restaurant out of Forest City.
Others feel that Forest City ismissing out on an opportunity to have a new, popular business in town. They argue that Chick-Fil-A’s anti-gay stance is no longer an issue, and that the restaurant would bring much-needed jobs and tax revenue to the town.
The final decision on whether Chick-Fil-A will open in Forest City NC will likely come down to the Town Council. However, the debate over the restaurant’s arrival is sure to continue for some time to come.
