35-Year Vegetarian Eats Chick-Fil-A to Make Statement; Doesn’t Understand what a Statement Is.
BRUCE LIPSKY/The Times-Union
Family values were once again rescued by the consumption of sweet, delicious fried meat. Via Buzzfeed:
Don Redman, a Jacksonville, Florida councilman, who was also A VEGETARIAN FOR 35 YEARS, decided to eat a Chick-Fil-A chicken sandwich because he wanted to support family values. 35 YEARS!!!!
Back in August, Don Redman of Jacksonville, Florida left vegetarianism behind to “make a statement.”
He told Action News:
“It means that much to me to make a statement. Mr. Cathy is a good man. I want to honor him and his stand.”
Yes, nothing says “statement” like an obscure city council member doing something that approximately all of his constituents do on a daily basis. That’s like a roadie for Poison doing heroin to make a “statement” in support of anti-piracy laws and/or hairspray.
Upon learning that he was a vegetarian, I’m surprised Redman’s central-Florida constituents didn’t have him tarred and feathered for being a hippy/gay/commie. “Animal rights? That ain’t how we do it in Dixie”
