MANUEL BOJORQUEZ (voice-over): From South Carolina to Texas and Ohio, Chick-fil-A supporters turned out in force Wednesday to stand up for the fast food chain.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN 1 (from amateur video): Thousands – thousands of people.
BOJORQUEZ: But it wasn’t just about the chicken.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN 2: Marriage is between one man and one woman.
BOJORQUEZ: Many showed up to back Dan Cathy, Chick-fil-A’s president and COO. He ignited a firestorm back in June when he spoke out against same-sex marriage.
DAN CATHY, PRESIDENT COO, CHICK-FIL-A (from June 16, 2012 interview on “The Ken Coleman Show”): I think we’re inviting God’s judgment on our nation when we shake our fists at him and say, you know, we know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage.
BOJORQUEZ: Gay rights advocates called for a boycott. The mayors of Boston and Chicago also took a stand.
RAHM EMANUEL, CHICAGO MAYOR (from July 25, 2012 press conference): It’s not what I believe, but it’s – more importantly, it’s not what the people of the City of Chicago believe.
BOJORQUEZ: But on Facebook, more than 600,000 people answered former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee’s call for a Chick-fil-A appreciation day.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN 3: This is where I just wanted to take a stand on God’s word, and come here and have a meal. So, that’s it.
BOJORQUEZ: Huckabee put in his order; so did other conservatives, including Congresswoman Michele Bachmann and Senator Lindsey Graham. Sarah Palin even went last week, then again Wednesday.
PALIN: In Phoenix, where there’s good Chick-fil-A. I can’t wait to eat those waffle fries and spicy chicken.
BOJORQUEZ: But Dominick Alvarado, who is gay, feels the tide may turn against the chain.
BOJORQUEZ (off-camera): You think this will hurt the chain in the long run?
DOMINICK ALVARADO, GAY RIGHTS SUPPORTER: I think so, yeah – because more people today are more accepting of gay rights and, just, rights for everybody.
BOJORQUEZ (on-camera): Supporters of same-sex marriage plan to counter. They say they will hold a national kiss-in campaign at Chick-fil-A restaurants on Friday. For ‘CBS This Morning,’ I’m Manuel Bojorquez, Dallas.
