Crystal O’Connor co-owns a pizzeria in Indiana but they may close their doors permanently after being attacked for putting forth their Christian faith. When she said she would not cater a gay wedding, the shop’s website was hacked, their Yelp profile was plastered with insults and obscene pictures, and they even received death threats.
A supporter has begun a “GoFundMe” profile for the Pizzeria owners to help them weather the gay mafia storm, and they have so many people angry that they’ve received over $18,000 in donations in just two hours!

“I know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AT ALL from the funder page on WHERE these donations are going ... and ... THAT is the problem!”

Dude, you keep repeating this OVER AND OVER. We get it, you don’t want to contribute to this crowdfunding effort to support the Christian business.
By the way, you’re not a junior pilot for Lufthansa by any chance, are you? You seem awfully obsessive.

The fund now stands at $44,834 of $45k, raised by 1,245 people in 7 hours.
We know all we need to know.
No, I have never said that people shouldn’t help the business if they want to. There is only ONE WAY to be ABSOLUTELY SURE the money is going to the business ... and that is to send it to them!
Now THAT is how you avoid the FRAUD of a SCAMMING MIDDLEMAN, of whom you have no idea whether any significant part (or ANY part) is going to get to the recipient.
That is how you do it, to know that it’s being done exactly like you think - send it DIRECT!
Yeahhhh...
Yah, and it just so happens that the libs are repeating this same thing OVER AND OVER at the donation site, and anywhere else the link to it is posted. Must be a coincidence (/s).
The other thing you notice at the site, is the number of libs either putting down the people donating, or begging for money for their causes.
It's really something to see how much the left is all up in other people's business-And how they are perfectly OK with telling other people how to spend their money. Then again I shouldn't be surprised.
Here is the guy who put up the gofundme page on behalf of the pizza place:

It’s now raised $47,108 of $45k from 1,314 people in 8 hours.
LBJ3, LOL!
$47,773 now. Works out to $35 apiece.
No they didn't. A reporter walked in and asked them their opinion about the law, and they obliged. Next thing you know, they're personally attacked, threatened with arson, harassed by phony orders, smeared online, and shut down.
This is supposed to be America, where dissent is patriotic. Remember?
Run along now, the adults are smacking down organized terrorism.
If the money is going to someone other than the pizza shop owners, that is one thing.
But why would you think this is funny? Why would you ridicule people for wanting to do the right thing?
If you have the facts, and you know this money is being misused, then warn people.
If it’s just another source of childish amusement to you, you’ve made your point. Go away and put some effort into growing up.
I'll wait until the dust settles, and then we'll see who had the HUGE PROBLEM.
Right. You're invincible!
No, she's one of the Brown Helmet Brigade of Apple's Timmy Cook, Commandant of the Gay Gestapo.
In that context it's easy to understand that she is not trying to warn people about the fund-raiser for the pizza shop.
What she is trying to do is fulfill her duties as one of the loyal, fanatical, apple-polishing AIDS-de-camp to Chief Timmy.
I gave with “pride”.
With donations, people do “due diligence” before the give money not after, and they find out details, such as what is the overhead of the “middleman” (like does only 10% go to the recipient) and they find out if there is a track record (has this been done before and what was the outcome). These things are called SCAMS on the Internet because they are do darned easy to pull off and then people’s money is gone ... and gone for something the donor never intended.
I’ll wait until the dust settles, and see who really had the HUGE PROBLEM.
