Chick-fil-Activist

Come on, White Oaks Mall. Are we to believe that you are so desperate to have a Chick-fil-A back in the mall that you are calling on mall shoppers to get all activist on the issue. Right now this poster fills an entire store-sized wall in the mall's food court.

I mean it's really big. Next to it is a bunch of pre-printed cards that look like this:

You are supposed to fill it out and place it into a box also right next to the giant poster.

Uh-huh. This can't possibly be an attempt to draw attention to the fact that Chick-fil-A is already planning on opening a store in the space now occupied by the poster. Nope. This true retail activism. And I only know of one person who would actually take up this cause in a serious way.

Please don't mock this crucial demonstration of citizen activism. Together, we can make a difference.

Hey, I typeset that Chick-Fil-A card! Did they look OK? I think I did spell check, but I could have been busy that day.

I have no feelings one way or the other on the subject, though. I'm not a fried chicken kind of guy.

I told your I have been talking about this for a few years now. Glad to finally see some actions.
