Imagine thinking you can have freedom of religion in a forced atheist state

It’s crazy. I always thought the business can determine its own hours. Although they did try to pander to the left

Once businesses couldn't even pick what customers they let in the building, even at the expense of their own profits, it was an open door precedent for this kind of bullying.

Thanks Civil Rights Movement for, as always, being what ruined America.

Very much like businesses are required to pursue profits due to intervention by the state (in the form of lawsuits regarding fiduciary duty to preserve profits in the face of fiat currency's inflation,) you'd best believe that 'discriminatory' hours could be regulated against by the People's Democratic Republic of New York. You will violate your Sabbath and like it, goy!

Imagine if this passes, Chick-fil-A just decides to close ALL NY rest stop locations and so more people unemployed and you deny your Black population fried chicken...

Is this a race between California and New York state on which can fuck themselves into oblivion first?

I was going to make a joke but now I'm debating in my head which was the WORST example of a forced labor camp under communism.

I'm torn between Soviet Union and Cambodia.

The only thing more iconic to communism than forced labor is communism and famine.

The products of your labor belongs to the a workers, Comrade!

Were you to keep anything for yourself, that would be cheating the Workers and trading in the Black Market! It would be the gulag for you!

Hopefully they sue and bend New York over the sink. SCOTUS has had a pretty good track record on religious liberty as of late, and the fact that they're obviously being targeted should work in their favor.

Have a bit of a "let them fight" feeling since Chick-fil-A bent the knee to the woke crowd and Blackrock when they installed a VP of DEI last year.

I sort of understand the reasoning here. It sounds like these are restaurants leasing space at rest stops and train stations. The state has an interest in making sure that the restaurants they contract with are open 7 days a week.

It's really no different than shopping malls forcing anyone with a store there to match the mall's hours- they have an interest in every store being open the whole workday to attract shoppers.

What I don't understand is why this would need to be a law. Concessionaires sign contracts for their space, and this sort of thing is more appropriate as a contract term. If New York wanted them to be open on Sunday they should have put it in the contract and Chick-fil-A would have just been ineligible to participate if they won't open on Sundays.

I wonder if this is an attempt to break the contract with Chick-fil-A without paying a penalty, as contracts are automatically voided if they violate the law. It wouldn't surprise me at all if this was a case of the NY Thruway Authority colluding with the legislature to get out of paying Chick-fil-A for breaking the contract.

If you take a road trip, and get on a turnpike you have to pay to get on, and off. Truck stops are on the paid for road. Chic fil A had no business putting locations in this situation. Even if we consider truck stops off of highways, truck stops are designed to keep the traffic on the highway.

I never liked them.

They do need to leave truck stops. Truck stops are like the grocery store of the highway. Can't be closed one day a week. It's crazy they go all, " Christian Values" until they starve travelers, or cost exit and entrance fees for toll roads in Sunday.

Chick-Fil-A doesn’t operate the truck stops and close the whole thing on Sunday. They aren’t even the only hot food option at any given facility. Nobody is starving because Chick-Fil-A is closed on Sunday. It’s right there in the article.

And I don’t say this to defend Chick-Fil-A after they caved to the outrage mob, because fuck that.

I have certainly been to truck stops that only have one option. They pay for that privilege you know. I have also been to truck stops with more than one option, and showers.

Your position might hold any merit if they were literally the only food being sold in that building whatsoever. Somehow, I feel like the truck stop still has the full suite of gas station available food and probably its own little burger, hotdog and taquito cases still right there and available.

So I'm going to guess you just don't like their food, valid, and are trying to extrapolate that into some position of them being immoral.

Go ask a trucker. It's a truck stop. They'd be the expert. I don't like their food, and I don't like how much money they put into making other people miserable. But, those same miserable fuckers love their food. So they can have each other.

But, we do not have Japanese vending machines here.

I spent a lot of years driving for a living, so I'm well aware of what fucking truck stops have available.

Most of the time in the early morning and late at night the built-in fast food isn't open either. Is that Wendy's and Little Ceaser's trying to literally starve people too? When the rollers haven't been kept up on and are filled with old, stale Tornados is that a moral fucking quandary?

You don't like Chikfila, again valid opinion, but rather than just own that fact you are trying to hide behind truckers and make sure no one else can have the choice.

How exactly is saying I don't like their food, " Not owning"? Go away, you're bothering me.

Fuck you. I agree with the fucking writers of the bill. I don't even like their fucking food, so I won't be eating that garbage.

“While there is nothing objectionable about a fast food restaurant closing on a particular day of the week, service areas dedicated to travelers is an inappropriate location for such a restaurant,” the justification for the proposed bill reads, after calling out Chick-fil-A specifically. “Publicly owned service areas should use their space to maximally benefit the public. Allowing for retail space to go unused one seventh of the week or more is a disservice and unnecessary inconvenience to travelers who rely on these service areas.” https://www.wfla.com/business/ny-lawmakers-call-out-chick-fil-a-over-sunday-closures-at-highway-rest-stops/

The bill is super petty, and is targeted specifically at Chick-fil-A as evidenced by what the bill sponsors have said.

However, the headline is also mostly fake. As written, the bill will only be enforced on new leases. So the existing Chick-fil-A rest-area locations will not be impacted at all.

Would be literally impossible to eat chicken on a Sunday if they don't do this.

Haven't read the article, but from what I gather, Chick-fil-A already has a work around for this type of situation. They turn into another 'fast food joint' on Sunday, complete with different store front signs and menu. Apparently, they're already doing it in one of those sport stadiums.

I think it's asshole main character behavior to even put fast food at a truck stop knowing you won't we available one day a week. Some road trips truck stops are your only option. Fuck them, kick them out completely.

The pretentious thing is CFA acting like it's not the case that 80% of people don't give a fuck it's sunday. People enjoy a day off, but people don't need it to be sunday, and they don't need to be off all at the same time.

Nobody's going to church. CFA confused.
