LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) -- Chick-fil-A supporters had their say earlier this week. Now, gay rights activists are taking their message to the fast food chain.

People gathered at the Markham Chick-fil-A in Little Rock as part of what's being called "National Same-Sex Kiss Day." The so-called "kiss-in" is in reaction to recent comments Chick-fil-A's president made about supporting the Biblical definition of marriage -- between a man and a woman -- and in response to former governor Mike Huckabee' Chick-fil-A appreciation day on Wednesday.

Many demonstrators today said they weren't protesting the president's freedom of speech and religion, but equal rights.
