Crystal O’Connor, whose family owns Memories Pizzeria, in Walkerton, IN, vowed that the store will re-open despite the backlash it has faced on Thursday’s “Cavuto” on the Fox Business Network.

Notice who are the villains and who are the sympathetic victims.
We are supposed to hate the pizza store owners, who did absolutely nothing to anyone.
We are supposed to be sympathetic to Michael Brown, his family and his “community.” All of whom are guilty of anti social, violent, illegal and destructive behavior.
I suspect if people read the whole article, they will understand, for in that article, the explanation I gave you is more or less stated there.
I admit I’m one of those people who doesn’t always read and that’s where I get into trouble.
I’d suggest letting it go. No good will come from stirring the pot.
I would be happy if they started a chain. I would patronize them.
Made you look like an ignorant foolish hayseed, the presentation and the final sting play.
Now [ in your mind] you avenge the butt hurt by lashing out at gofundme, out of concern for all those dumb schmucks who place their trust in an internet organization whose sole purpose is to peel the bucks away from their owners.
Realize, your sleuthing and clear sightedness impresses only you, and only in your mind.
As another Freeper suggested, use the money to open a chain of Christian pizza parlors.
Use a small part of the $400,000 raised to hire security ..
Sounds like she's saying that she doesn't have a choice but to allow homosexuals to buy pizzas when really she does. Homosexuals are not a protected class under the discrimination laws in Indiana.
I say "seemingly" because Rush Limbaugh says it's all orchestrated by 10 -15 people who have some kind of algorithm which generate thousands and thousands of false tweets, messages, looking like they come from all over the country.

Here's what Rush says:
"Not only have we found that 10 people are responsible for 85% of the fake complaints, we have found that an even greater percentage than that come from locations not even in the same city where the business is located. They are threatening never to patronize. Sometimes they make death threats. It's the same thing, but it's been going on, George Soros pays for it in many cases. He's the one who funds this...They have perfected this technique where 10, 15 people with an algorithm can make it appear that thousands and thousands of individuals are outraged to the point of being unaccepting of what's going on. They send all of these tweets and all of these threats and it forces this little pizza shop to shut down, when in fact it's not anywhere near...
"[the victims] shut down their product, they shut down their business, they shut down their store. They say they have to do it because their lives have been threatened, and they no doubt have, by fake generated tweets made to look real."
What I see in this is that people ... even when they know what they are supposed to do to avoid scams and frauds ... they simply ignore it all, when they get “invested” and “wrapped up” in a personal cause. The problem is ... “THAT” is the MOST DANGEROUS TIME for people to get scammed, and scammers know this. When you “get personal” with something and when you bring out a “visceral reaction” that is the PERFECT TIME for scammers. They love it!
How people can AVOID being “carried away” with themselves in these “visceral moments” is to have a “methodology” in place that makes it impossible to get scammed, and that was precisely the “methodology” that I was posting.
It isn't the town who are against her. Just people on the web and outsiders with a chip on their shoulder.
I think that made it the highest-revenue restaurant on Earth for that day.
No, actually I’ve NEVER been burned, as I said in a previous post. I’ve just “read” about the cases of people being burned and figured that it shouldn’t ever be me ... which has worked out quite well so far ... :-) ...
I don't think their location is the problem. The reporter won't say what prompted her to pick Memories Pizza to do an interview, but she had to drive 20 miles to get there.
On point.
My understanding is that it took her a long time to drive around trolling for Christians.
She probably asked around for Christian-owned businesses, or searched them out specifically for Christian-owned businesses.
Whenever someone posts something negative about me on the internet,
it never seems to hurt me physically or affect my paycheck.
Nope ... if the family is smart, they’ll keep doing the same thing they’ve always done and keep serving those people in that town of just a few thousand and go quietly about their lives, and wisely use their money, and not step out into foreign territory and overextend themselves.
That money should be for retirement, medical emergencies, some new equipment, kid’s education, and maybe a little fun thrown in there ... all of it done very modestly!
how about a yearly club donations?
for every donation above $x, you will receive a 1 yr membership to the club, which gives you access to members only software packages
Umm, they are in a town of 2,000, and operate a Christian pizza house. Pretty sure it would be hard to find anyone in the town who understands the massive backlash (or can figure out how you’d do pizza catering at a gay shacking up ceremony.. Is the pizza the cake or the meal? Couldn’t they just go pick up the order?)
Though the only disconcerting thing is the lack of quotes from the local police about tracking down these threats.
