I’ll give you that. If a gay person just said he wanted mass pizzas there would be no objections.

Its when the business owner hears the customer go a step further and say its for a gay wedding then the owner should be free to demur.

However, making pizza’s is not the personal and artistic expression that cake decoration and photography.

3. Blame somebody else”

Wash, rinse and repeat till it is out of the news cycle.

Useful Idiots.

I think it was generally understood that GoFundMe.com is a commercial enterprise, which collects 5% of the total for their services rendered. About 20,000 donors have decided that arrangement was acceptable to them, and donated according to the dictates of their consciences.

I understand using an intermediary for giving may present some issue for you, and you're welcome to donate in whatever manner you deem appropriate. And for heavy-hitting full-time philanthropists such as yourself, a person who routinely donates 20, 50 or 100,000 dollars at a time, I understand the third-party take might be of some concern.

However, the average individual donation to the GoFundMe.com drive for Memories Pizza, at this moment, is about $30.00. This is a classic case where the downside risk of not "going direct" is very, very limited, indeed, at least for the average donor.

And now Rush Limbaugh is promoting it and the collected money is over $600,000.

With liberals, it's always "our actions were counterproductive because those other people are evil and conniving" instead of "our actions were counterproductive because we are idiots and don't understand how reality works".
