Chic Fil A has 100% of my support. Stand strong Paulding!

As often happens, the petitioner did not give an alternative to the very popular Chicken Biscuit with the students or another fundraiser that could equal the funds raised by the fundraiser. Everyone has the right not to participate, so exercise that right instead of speaking for the majority. A lot of people stand strong for Chick fil A's Christian based business, great food, and the clean and uncommonly courteous atmosphere when dealing with their restaurants.

I think the public school system has much bigger things to worry about than a chicken sandwich.

I have 4 kids in three schools in North Paulding area. I think that the Chik Fil A sales is a great way to support our schools. Did the people who signed the petition look into all the other fundraising companies the schools utilize to see who those companies donate to? Schools are actively seeking ways to raise funds to help support our school district, kids and school programs. If a parent decides they don't want to support the Chik Fil A fundraising efforts because they don't support Chik Fil A's beliefs, then choose to not purchase a biscuit. Don't penalize an entire district with a fund raiser that works.

Why is it that the views of a few people are highlighted and taken as gospel, when the majority of Paulding people are trying to do the right thing in raising their children by providing funds to keep our school standards high unlike most schools in the metro Atlanta area. We the people of Paulding embrace what Chick-fil-A has done in the past and is doing to provide financial aid for it's employees and residents of this county.

Lets all pitch in and buy Reagan Stewart a crying towel. After that lets all meet at chik-fil-a for a meal and show our support.

Can we start a petition to Have Reagan Stewart removed from Paulding County? Chick-Fil-A is a Family oriented organization that does a lot of Charitable work in our Community and If Mr. Stewart has issue with them he can simply not buy any of their product.Its called the Free Market and that is how Americans should handle this, not with some whinny petition. My Daughter also goes to School in Paulding County and Loves having the choice of a Chick-Fil-A biscuit on Thursdays. So Mr. Stewart can take his Judgmental and obviously hate filled petition and take it to Douglas Or Fulton County where someone might care. Just Say'n

Yes, do it!

Chick-fil-a does a great service for our Paulding County Schools. I am frustrated that there are people that continue to try and shut down efforts that help our schools and our kids. The school system should continue to allow fundraising efforts through Chick-fil-A. I think our kids deserve that. There are things I disagree with in our county sometimes but I don't go after having them removed or revoked. That is the beauty of our freedom of rights. Just because a few individuals don't like Chick-fil-A they should not be allowed to tell the county as a whole and cause negative impact on the entire efforts and what this company provides to help our students.

NO! Please don't sever the ties with Chick-fil-A! All that matters is that this is a fundraiser and the school receives money from it. Plus, many students and staff look forward to this chance to get their food right at school. If the petitioner and supporters don't want to purchase Chick-fil-A, fine; no one is forcing them. No sense in making everyone have to pay the price because of how they feel.

I don't believe Paulding or any school system should sever fund raising ties with Chick Fil-A, or any company over their corporate donation policies. If a person has an issue with the fundraiser, they have the option of not participating in the fundraiser. Grow up America!!

I don't have a child in the Paulding School System anymore, but companies like Chick Fil A help offset the cost of running programs with their fund raisers. If this man doesn't approve of Chick Fil A, he should simply not allow his daughter to purchase an item from them. A lot of things happen around me everyday that I may not approve of. Sometimes you just have to turn the other cheek and live and let live. Why does he think his views are more important than anyone else's? I for one am PROUD of Chick Fil A and their stand as a Christian company, and also of their support of schools and youth organizations.. Let his daughter eat at home that morning!

I think it's terrible that we let one thing and one group run our business. I'm not anti-gay, but I can think of hundreds of ways that Chick Fil A has helped ALL people, including gay people. They don't ask if you are gay or straight when they hire you, or help you go to college. I will ALWAYS support Chick Fil A because of the good they do.

There is a lot of misinformation and extreme exagerration about Chick-fil-A supporting what some refer to as "hate groups". CFA only donated $1000 to Family Research Council, not the millions that some have stated. In recent years, CFA has donated over $68 million to all charitable causes. The donation to FRC represents only 0.0014705% of CFA's donations. Chick-fil-A does a lot of good for schools and communities. I fully support CFA!!!

I would just like to say that I wish I had the time on my hands to worry about Chick-Fil-A selling biscuits at my child's school...AND I would like to think that our school system does not that kind of time either. I'll pitch in Jeff for the "crying towel" and you said it well Rob "STAND STRONG PAULDING COUNTY!"

The group change.org is the real "hate group". Do not turn away from a company that has values that are good for Paulding County.

I think Chick Fila A biscuit sales probably just doubled or tripled... Just curious if Stewart does this much research on every place you shop (dept stores,other food chains etc...) if you dont agree with CFA then dont eat there..

The last time I checked, no one FORCED us to buy Chick Fil A when they were selling the biscuits every Thursday. If you bought a biscuit, it was because you wanted one, and you didn't really think twice before you took a bite that "Oh, they support hate groups" or any bull like that. If they don't want to support Chick Fil A in the schools, THEN DON'T BUY ANY OF THE FOOD THERE! It's really not that hard people. But keep in mind, selling Chick Fil A on Thursday mornings gives your child's school some money so that they don't have to have fundraisers every other week. Golly, and I didn't think people could get any more dumb.

So, is she willing to give all the Paulding County Schools that benefit from the fundraising, the money they would lose if ties were severed?

I have one child in the Paulding Co school and another to start next year and support Chick-fil-a 110%,..Regean Stewart is only one voice, I think there are more of us that support it staying in the CFA fundraising efforts...maybe we should start an opposing petition...Keep up the EXCELLENT work CFA!!!

I signed the petition at change.org. Schools should NOT support haters and those who donate money to hate groups. Everyone does have a right to their own opinion but for a school to support haters sends a bad message to the kids. It says it is okay to try to hate the LGBT community. People are people we should support love not hate...

Tell you what, you folks that sign the petition, you pay the money Chick Filet pays the school and we will call it even – idiot’s! This politically correct stuff does not bring us closer, it pulls us further apart by having to show the world that some of us are different and thus special.

It can be pretty simple.. if you don't want Chic fil a in Paulding Co. Schools, MOVE!!! We love Chick fil a in PC!! Go back from where you came from!

Here is a petition seeking to KEPP Chik-Fil-A as a fundraiser. If you support Chik-Fil-A - please sign THIS petition

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/124/923/790/keep-chick-fil-a-fundraising-events-in-paulding-schools/

According to Ms. Stewart, she has no issues with Dan Cathy's views towards the LGBT community and and has nothing to do with her reasons for the petition, yet a quick look at her "causes" tells quite a different story.

Why doesn't Mrs. Stewart make a list of every single penny she spends for everyone to consider? It seems to me the people that criticize the most also have the most to hide, and when confronted with that fact will tuck tail and run like the scalded dog they truly are. By the way Mrs, Stewart, try telling your kids they can't have that chicken biscuit they were getting until you started running your mouth for no reason. I'll guarantee they will get it without you knowing it as frequently as possible.

I absolutely agree--it is of great intelligence that one would try to end something that supplies funding to suffering schools (insert sarcasm here). Good grief, what an idiot. You don't end funding! Almost EVERY single chain shopping place has some agenda somebody doesn't like. Can't we just 'like' that they give to schools? Why must it always be a political or social agenda??? I'd just bet that if CFA was giving that individual a portion of its sales every month he/she wouldn't argue with it one bit! STAY STRONG CFA!!!!!!!! We love and support you every single chance we can!

Ridiculous!! The Huffington Post is not even a credible publication...... Some people seem to have too much time on their hands. Chick-fil-A is a good Christian company and I stand behind them 100%. And since when is Douglasville in Paulding County anyway??

this woman is an idiot. bottom line. if she doesn't want the chicken biscuit. don't buy it.

It's not about chicken...it's about moral, ethics and principles. Stand strong Paulding!

I fully support Chick -fil-a as a fund raiser here in Paulding Co. . If Mrs Stewart is unhappy with this she need not participate. Don't allow one person who is easily offended mess things up for the majority. Sometimes people have been calling groups in support of traditional marriage a hate group. This is a false ajenda using hate of traditional marriage as a focus. Now that is a hate group and ajenda. People need to realize who the haters really are, if you support traditional marriage is not hate!!!!! However to falsely accuse is hate!!!!

Ms Stewart needs to eat more Chicken. ...all she is spewing is BALONEY. ...check your facts chik. ...and what have you done for the good of Paulding or the fine folks that peacefully live here? They are not haters BUT you, on the other hand, are trying to provide fuel. Keep the chik fil a. OORAH

I no longer live in Paulding but I went to school in Paulding and graduated from EPHS. I completely agree with what CFA stands for and I support them 100%. They have always supported our school system and they need to continue to do so!! Ms. Stewart either needs to choose not to support that particular fundraiser or put her daughter in a school in Douglas County where she lives!! But, I've got news for her...CFA is a big part of fundraising in Douglas also!!! She is out of luck either way, so she needs to take her petition and throw it in the trash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I enjoy going to school on Fridays and picking up a biscuit... This better not stop simply due to morals of a company. It's sad.

This is the most ignorant topic of discussion our schools should have to worry about!!! If Ms Stewart doesn't feel like funding CFA due to their beliefs then don't,but to try and turn the entire county against then serving to the school....pure stupidity!!! It's a warm chicken biscuit,better than a pop-tart...Some kids out there don't get breakfast at home and I'm sure their parents aprreciate the fact that they have this option!!! Of all going on in our Country.....Just sayin....And that's my freedom to speak....Get a life lady!!!!

Ok take a look at her picture on her web site. She has too much time on her hands.

Believing what the Bible says and standing up for those beliefs does not make one a hater. The Chick-Fil-A family has as much right to stand up for their beliefs as the liberal community has...maybe even more because being morally upright has been the accepted norm in this country much longer than being gay has been accepted! Why does the minority haveore rights than the majority?

I am in support for all people. However I am not in support for taking CFA out of the county school system. Yes Chick fil A has morals and they have always stood for those morals and values. They are still closed on Sunday. But you have a choice to either buy a chiken biscuit and support the fundraiser or not. Do not ask for one political agenda to take away a great program for the greater good of the county and these school kids functions this provides. There will always be one aspect that you may not like and you can choose not to support that company, but do not ask the majority to go without just becuase you don't agree. I am sick of the minority always trying to push their agenda on the majority. THe majority needs to take back our morals and values and quit being pushed around. Yes, I think everyone is equal but not when it comes to a political group pushing thier agenda on America where we were founded on biblical morals and values and the majority of this country is still biblical and has a high moral and values but will respect those who do not have bibilical morals and principals and treat you with respect, until you try crap like this.

Why is it that all the businesses that support gay causes, support a woman's supposed right to kill her unborn child and other liberal agendas don't get hammered and a business who stands up for good and moral values gets torn apart?

That is stupidest thing I ever heard of...get a life Reagan....

Chik-Fil-A does a lot of good things for all school systems. Also in communities. Sounds like Reagan has a lot of problems herself. all we can do is pray for her and
keep eating chik_fil_a

Like others I agree that if you don't like it then do not buy the Chick Filet Biscuit! I guess this person wants us to support her beliefs even if she doesn't support ours. Really? 2 Way Street people!

If a parent does not want to support Chick-Fil-A seems like a simple solution for them is to not give their child any money to buy a biscuit on Thursday morning.

My advice to the parent is get over it.
