Owners of Indiana pizza restaurant go into hiding (Media Corruption)
American Thinker ^ | 04 APR 2015 | Rick Moran

Posted on 04/04/2015 7:04:57 AM PDT by BCW

The explosion of hatred and threats against a family owned Indiana pizza restaurant who said they wouldn't cater a gay wedding have forced them to go into hiding and they may leave town permanently. A northern Indiana pizza shop that came under fire after its owners said their religious beliefs wouldn't allow them to cater a gay wedding is closed indefinitely, and its operators say they've gone into hiding. Memories Pizza in Walkerton faced criticism this week after co-owner Crystal O'Connor expressed support for a new Indiana religious objections law. The Facebook and Yelp pages for the restaurant about 20 miles southwest of South Bend were bombarded with negative reviews. A coach of a high school golf program was suspended after a Twitter post that mentioned going to Walkerton and burning down the restaurant. WNDU-TV reports that O'Connor and her family are considering leaving town.

The local news asked a question - and then turned the response into a witch hunting campaign that has done nothing else than prove that discriminating against gays cannot be done - but they sure as hell can discriminate and harm Christians and anyone else who does not accept their life style...kinda like ISIS!

Think for a second... who caters a wedding with pizza, anyways?

The Fascist Gays look for any excuse to strut their stuff.

The Gays in the US, just like ISIS and Al Qeada in Asia, target Christians to destroy or strike fear in them. Al Qeada, ISIS and Gays work for the same boss

Rush talked about this yesterday. It's the most absurd premise ever that anybody should have shot down and told these local news idiots to pound sand.

We’re heading toward a Kristallnacht. Businesses which are owned by the wrong people — people with “anti-social” ideas — will be targeted and trashed.

Most of the Pizza places I have been to in my former area are owned by mid easterners. I’m sure most were Islamic. I wonder if they would make such a fuss if Ali refused to bake a cake?

It’s not just the LGBT crowd it’s the entire liberal left and your comparison to ISIS is damn near perfect... Convert to their way of thinking or die or at the very least we’ll destroy your way of living and make life miserable for you.

Why are all the straight people in Indiana, the vast majority, so silent? Are there any men left in Indiana? Down here in Louisiana, you threaten to burn down a business, the owners and a lot more would be waiting for you.

Watching these actions, one has to wonder...who is really being bullied and facing real, real discrimination in the actions taken by the secular zealots?

Had someone state, "Why would a business turn away a customer?" Reply: "Because money isn't everything."

It could be an Italian themed wedding, or bachelor party, rehearsal dinner etc. The reporter who first caught this story looking for ‘bigotry’ just happened to run with the response of a pizzaria, could have been any type of service business really.

I wonder if Rick Moran has the talent to write an interesting, stimulating column on his own?

Words Moran borrowed from the Associated Press: 111

Words Moran borrowed from Allahpundit: 272

Words written by Moran himself: 120

Must be a nice gig.

It’s the power of Satan in the world, and many serve Satan in their own ways. Islam, Homosexuality, Greed, Immorality, Drugs, Slander, Hate, etc. It’s all the same thing. They serve the same god of this world

I think the unwritten part is that the reporter quite likely called up a lot of caterers and got "proper" responses. Then the reporter called chinese restaurants and got "proper" responses. Then Mexican restaurants. Then pizza places. The reporter may have found 99 pizza places that would gladly do business with anyone.

But, after 1000 phone calls, and many varieties of food outlets, that 1-out-of-100 pizza places declined to cater a homosexual wedding, and it became a national scandal because of the widespread and debilitating prejudice against homosexuals.
