Chaz The Intolerant Chicken Wishes You A Happy Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day.

Okay this is naughty, naughty, naughty.

But also funny, funny, funny.

Homophobia is becoming less and less acceptable to more and more people.

Muppets and discrimination don't mix.

Courtesy of the Jim Henson Company's Facebook page:

The Jim Henson Company has celebrated and embraced diversity and inclusiveness for over fifty years and we have notified Chick-Fil-A that we do not wish to partner with them on any future endeavors. Lisa Henson, our CEO is personally a strong supporter of gay marriage and has directed us to donate the payment we received from Chick-Fil-A to GLAAD. 

Oh you KNOW you have screwed up when even the Muppets won't play with you anymore.

And this is only one example of organizations breaking ties with groups promoting discrimination and homophobia.

This from Yahoo Sports:  

This January, Major League Soccer announced it was teaming up with the Boy Scouts of America to form a strategic partnership. It turns out that 2012 will be the only season this alliance will be in effect. 

Under the partnership, among other cross-promotions, teams held “Scout Nights” at their stadiums with discounted tickets, and players would visit local troops to discuss fitness and leadership. 

Earlier in the week, the Boy Scouts of America announced that following a two-year review, it would continue its long-standing policy of excluding gays.

MLS did not specify if the ruling affected its decision to end the partnership, but it should be noted the league has supported anti-discriminatory causes like You Can Play, an organization dedicated to ending homophobia in sports. 

Additionally, many teams, including the Chicago Fire, Chivas USA, D.C. United and the Columbus Crew have held game promotions for gay and lesbian groups. This May, the Fire announced a partnership with Equality Illinois, a LGBT-rights group.

It is really unfortunate when an organization's prejudice and antiquated thinking negatively affects the children that they claim they are dedicated to serve.

And let's face it, the writing is on the wall.  Homosexuality has been around as long as heterosexuality has been around, and we as a society are simply way behind in our ability to accept the fact that vilifying these people does nothing but diminish us and human beings.

As you can see our gay brothers and sisters, sons and daughters (I love you angel), fathers and mothers, are here to stay. And they are getting stronger every day.
