Memories Pizza owner Crystal O’Connor previously said, “If a gay couple came in and wanted us to provide pizzas for their wedding, we would have to say no”
Memories Pizza, the Indiana restaurant that temporarily closed on Wednesday due to backlash resulting from its public refusal to cater same-sex weddings, has had a major reversal of fortune.
Over 3,600 people have banded together to “relieve the financial loss endured by the proprietors’ stand for faith” and raised a total of $108,555 in just 17 hours through crowdfunding site GoFundMe.
Memories Pizza, “a proud Christian establishment,” took the national spotlight on Wednesday after owner Crystal O’Connor told a local ABC affiliate “we would have to say no” to a gay couple if they asked to buy a large number of pizzas for their wedding.
The business, however, said if a gay couple stepped into the restaurant, they wouldn’t be denied service — although, it’s likely gay patrons will avoid making memories at Memories all together. . .

Good!
Now over $150,000, I believe. Rush is also talking about this.
In the liberals’ minds that is illegal crowd funding and has to be taxed out the a$$ until it ain’t no more.
Agreed - Good on them!
Over $134,000 now.
I think Gaystopo is an apt term and these fascists should be called little Ernst Rohms. .
I’d like some people to use the term Gaystopo and little Ernst Rohm on the MSM when interviewed.
It makes the point concisely, powerfully and in a more fair manner than most in today’s socio-political milieu.
Not knowing anything about gofundme, what guarantee is there that the pizza parlor will see any of this money? After all, they didn’t set up the gofundme site, someone else did.

I’m sending some bucks their way when I get home from work.
(Unless Obama sics the IRS on GoFundMe and shuts them down)
Quick way to end freepathon, tell a reported we won’t cater a gay wedding?
Yes, Rush is talking about it. Should push the donations up.
BTW, anyone can join Yelp!, look up Memories Pizza in Walkerton IN and flag all the offensive and non-review comments. Once there are enough flags, Yelp! will remove the comments.
Nothing against those contributing to the family, but it sure would be nice to see a Freepathon end this quick.
If I may offer advice, when a group of homosexuals surround you and make threatening demands of you, get outta town and don’t look back. Learn from Lot.
Check out the organizer, think it’s this guy:

It doesn't get any better than this. It's just like the people protecting Chic Fillet. Free Americans banding together to protect their constitutional right to free association and help the victims of the radical totalitarians who are trying to take it away from all Americans.
This is a time for all Christians to give thanks and pray the people of America open their eyes to what is being forced upon them. Now is the time for freedom loving athiest to join the Christians quest to think freely, speek freely, and believe freely as well. This issue goes across all lines, all races, all religions.
