  1. College Park should think bigger than Chick-fil-A

    The waffle fry wars have hit College Park, with hundreds of people signing a petition to get the Chick-fil-A restaurant booted from the University of Maryland's Stamp Student Union over the company president's anti-gay marriage activism. A petition on the website change.org says "It is clear that Chick-fil-A does not represent the values embraced by the University of Maryland community. Allowing such an organization to continue to operate in the [student union] runs counter to the spirit of equality that the university claims to champion." It's heartening to see concern on campus for the issue of marriage equality, but an online petition urging the university to break its lease with a fast food restaurant isn't going to accomplish much. To make a difference, the students need to take much more direct action.

  4. Crime & Punishment: WWE Wrestler Allegedly Fired For Supporting Linda McMahon's Senate Campaign

    <strong>There are no Chick fil-A locations in Connecticut,</strong> so Mitch Beck, an executive recruiter who is hosting a state Republican Party shindig at his home in Monroe, planned to have someone drive out to the one in Paramus, N.J., and pick up 100 sandwiches for the event &mdash; just to be a dick (or, in his words, support the &quot;First Amendment rights" of gay-bashing Chick fil-A president Dan Cathy). Beck relented after the candidates attending started "catching heat for it, which was not the intent," he told the Monroe Patch website, adding, "There was never any intent to hurt anybody's feelings or even to take a side on a gay rights issue" (which you may have mistakenly thought because Chick fil-A is at the center of a gay rights issue). Beck has decided to donate 90 of the sandwiches he ordered to a homeless shelter, reports the <em>Connecticut Post</em>, keeping 10 for himself "to see what they taste like." They taste like ground-up bird parts and hate, Mitch.

    There used to be a time when the only people who cared what junk-food companies did were health advocates. How I long for those days. Can we not have our artery-clogging pizzas, breaded chicken filet sandwiches and crème-filled cookies without...
