In what has to be one of the most bizarre comparisons I’ve ever come across, a faculty chair at a university in California likened the 25-year-old Chick-fil-A on campus to selling pornography in the school’s bookstore.

The faculty senate of Cal Poly San Luis Obispo voted overwhelmingly to kick Chick-fil-A off campus, citing the fast-food chain’s support of “anti-LGBT causes,” referring to the donations CEO Dan Cathy has made to various nonprofit, faith-based organizations, according to The San Francisco Chronicle.

Thomas Gutierrez, vice chair of the college’s academic senate, told the on-campus newspaper Mustang News, “We don’t sell pornography in the bookstore and we don’t have a Hooters on campus—we already pre-select those kind of things based on our existing values.”
