There has been much debate on the legality of Chick-Fil-A restaurants due to their stance on gay marriage. However, the company has stated that they do not discriminate against anyone and that their restaurants are “independent operators.
” This means that individual owners can choose to operate a Chick-Fil-A restaurant, as long as they abide by the company’s policies.
While it is not clear whether or not Chick-Fil-A restaurants are legally able to discriminate against gay customers, it is clear that their restaurants are independently owned and operated. This means that customers cannot count on the company to take a stand on behalf of LGBT rights.
However, since each restaurant is independent, customers can still patronize Chick-Fil-A restaurants without fear of discrimination.
