While some on the Left want you to believe Chick-fil-A is a business not worthy of your patronage, it is a Birmingham Chick-fil-A that came to the rescue of stranded motorists.
Some of the drivers had been stuck in their cars for nearly seven hours without any food or water. So the staff of the Chick-fil-A decided to lend a helping hand.
“We cooked several hundred sandwiches and stood out on both sides of 280 and handed out the sandwiches to anyone we could get to – as long as we had food to give out.”
The staffers braved the falling snow and ice, slipping and sliding, as they offered hot juicy chicken breasts tucked between two buttered buns. And Chick-fil-A refused to take a single penny for their sandwiches.
The meal was a gift – no strings attached.
For the frozen drivers, it was manna from heaven.
“They were very excited and extremely thankful,” she said. “People were thankful to get something to put in their stomachs.”
People helping people. It’s what America used to be all about. Government used to be a last resort, a temporary hand up. Thank you to Chick-fil-A for being a shining example of what it means to walk the walk, not just talk the talk.
Spend your dollars wherever you want — and don’t spend them wherever you want. But realize that businesses are made up of people who have very big hearts.
