AFTER CANCELLING CHRISTIAN BAKER’S DONATION PAGE, ‘GOFUNDME’ NOW SHUTS DOWN BALTIMORE COPS’ PAGE!

The “GoFundMe” crowdsource fundraising site has shut down a donation page for the legal costs of the Baltimore police officers involved in the death of Freddie Gray, after they shut down the donation page for a Christian bakery that was being punished

I mean, they were charged with everything from "I ♥ murder" to "making a false or misleading report to a scrap metal dealer or recycler."

"He said, "What were you arrested for, kid?" and I said, "Litterin'"' . . . . And they all moved away from me on the bench there, with the hairy eyeball And all kinds of mean, nasty things, till I said, "And creatin' a nuisance . . . " And they all came back, shook my hand, and we had a great time on the Bench talkin' about crime, mother-stabbin', father-rapin', . . . all kinds Of groovy things that we was talkin' about on the bench, and everything was Fine."

Yet they have a page for the bail money for those looters that were arrested

I dont see what the big deal here is.

If this company doesn’t want our money, some smart conservative simply needs to start a conservative alternative that will. Problem solved.

It’s not like taking it’s a hard business model to copy

Sounds like someone should set up a conservative gofund site.

I have my checkbook out to help the cops in Baltimore.

Unless, of course, the site is set up by Hillary and The First Rapist.

Thank you.

Thanks for the correction. 8% instead ofv5%.

Allegedly, the net amount after GoFundMe deducts its fee goes to whoever started the page. In this case I understand the page was created by the FOP. It would be up to the FOP to dispense the money properly.

I can understand that the site wants to make some money on its site. That's the essence of capitalism — provide goods and services and make a profit. One would hope that some part of the profit goes back into maintaining the website.

But in a charitable endeavor, I prefer that all of my donation will go to the person or entity that needs it. Which is why I mail a check directly.

How is my post “anti-cop?”

Who’s the communists? GoFundMe is the communists. GoFthem.

[Some Fat Guy in L.A.]

Sounds like GoFundMe needs some competition.

Perhaps we should start a campaign on one or more of these sites:
