Menino says he can't actively block Chick-fil-A
http://j.mp/OOaYPX (Boston Herald)
"Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino repeated today that he doesn't want
Chick-fil-A in Boston, but he backed away from a threat to actively
block the fast-food chain from setting up shop in the city. "I can't
do that. That would be interference to his rights to go there," Menino
said, referring to company president Dan Cathy, who drew the mayor's
wrath by going public with his views against same-sex marriage."

I support gay marriage. I've never been in a Chick-fil-A. But I am
still disturbed by the recent pronouncements of some big city mayors
that they wanted to stop the chain from opening restaurants because
its owner has said he doesn't support gay marriage. Some leaders need
to review the First Amendment.
