Boston Mayor: No Chick-Fil-A Here Ever!

Boston Mayor Thomas Menino today vowed to keep Chick-Fil-A out of his town.

“Chick-fil-A doesn’t belong in Boston. You can’t have a business in the city of Boston that discriminates against a population. We’re an open city, we’re a city that’s at the forefront of inclusion,” Menino told the Herald yesterday. “That’s the Freedom Trail. That’s where it all started right here. And we’re not going to have a company, Chick-fil-A or whatever the hell the name is, on our Freedom Trail.”

The chain is reported considering its first Boston location at a site directly across from City Hall.
