"Mayor Tom Menino wasn’t shy when it came to his opinion about not allowing a fast food chain, whose president harbors values that clash with that of the top city officials, to make its mark in Boston.
In fact, he was very clear when he told the Boston Herald that Chick-Fil-A, criticized and roasted by most of the country in recent weeks for remarks about its staunch stance against same-sex marriage, is not welcome here in the Hub.
Menino said no way would he allow a chicken-patty-selling chain to root it’s claws into a city that values diversity and is accepting of all.
Boasting Boston’s bravery to set standards in the country when it comes to same-sex marriage and equality, Menino penned an open letter to Dan Cathy, the President of Chick-Fil-A, and the man behind the remarks that have set a fiery blaze of rage in the hearts of many—including The Muppets."
