Salon: Pizzeria Closed After Death Threats ‘Getting Exactly What It Deserved’

Alex Griswold4:00 PM 04/02/2015 164103

Liberal clickbait factory Salon.com wants to let you know that Memories Pizza, the pizzeria supportive of Indiana’s Religious Freedom Act that was forced to close after constant abuse and death threats, got “exactly what it deserved.” (RELATED: Owners Of Indiana Pizzeria Opposed To Gay Marriage Receive Death Threats)

In a now-deleted tweet, Salon’s Twitter account gloated over the closure of “anti-LGBT” pizza shop:

Pizza The link in the body of the tweet goes to a very brief Salon article which reports on Memories Pizza’s closure, but omits any mention of the death threats:

The owners of a small-town pizza shop who showed support for Indiana’s controversial Religious Freedom Restoration Act have announced that they will be closing indefinitely, after facing mounting protests outside the physical establishment and online. Memories Pizza owner Kevin O’Connor told Fox News on Wednesday that due to an inability to differentiate between real and fake orders, he and his family would be taking a break. “Because I don’t believe in something that they want, they see fit to be angry about it,” O’Connor said. “It’s just been ugly. I don’t know what to call it.” Conservative Twitter users hit back at Salon over the tweet.

Libtards are emboldened and unhinged. This is exactly why Scott Walker wins elections by ever increasing margins in a Democrat majority state. Libtards admire their worst enemy every time they pass a reflective surface.

Homofascism works. Use that.

Yep. That pizza place sure did get their just rewards - half a million dollars worth. All across the country good men and woman "punished" them by sending them $520,175 to date. Ouch! That's really going to hurt them ( NOT!)

Not from me.

i’ve never known pizza parlors to do,any wedding parties.

They sought attention and got it. And over half million dollars for doing nothing. I’ve got much more worthy causes to donate to.

I know of churches that barely keep their doors open anymore because they cannot afford to.

I suspect the amoral bottom feeders on the left will slither off at the first sign of resistance.

“Tenets of quality and diversity.” Diversity ends where liberal hatred of religion and moral norms begin.” Reminiscent of Sodom’s male mob yelling into Lot’s hhome about the visiting Angels inside, “Bring them outside so we may “”know”” them.”
Its not called Sodomy without a good reason.

They didn't seek the attention. A leftist "reporter" stuck a microphone under the nose of the owner and badgered her. She replied that they have no objection to serving gay people, but would prefer not to participate in a gay wedding ceremony.

Should we allow the leftists to destroy this business?

Ah, spring, when a liberal's heart turns to violent persecution.

The barbed wire, the concrete, the smell of burning Christians.

The dream of every liberal.

A young girl working in her family business at the counter taking orders,
bullied and tricked by an adult reporter on the troll,

and they’re “getting what they deserved”?

Leftists... the day will come when you get what you deserve. Forever.

“Let them pick on a Muslim service provider.
Oh, but they don’t want to lose their heads over it.”

Actually the press and leftist politicians don’t want to make an issue of the Muslim religion. Christianity is the target today and the propaganda machine will not be distracted.

Exactly. Remember the “How is homosexual marriage going to affect YOU?” Line that the left always chanted pretending that allowing homosexual marriage was a benign activity? We knew all along that it wasn’t going to go well.

Let me point out something that is obvious, yet virtually overlooked in this latest example of Leftist bully tactics.

Most Conservative spokesmen today--most Conservative organizations in America today--take an approach to the battle which basically concedes what the Left has already accomplished in its assault on personal responsibility & individual liberty. Most only seek to hold a line that yields no more.

Thus only a few of us still insist that the whole fabric of legislation that forbids discrimination against various protected classifications by private individuals & private businesses is wrong; fundamentally wrong in denying people the freedom to use their own property for what were always legal purposes in the past. We after all, as free people, have always claimed the right to make our own decisions--that is to discriminate in our personal choices. It is not something aimed against any group; rather a right that all free men & women have in common.

When Conservative spokesmen concede the past campaigns ever broadening the list of protected categories--broadening the limitations on other peoples' choices; they create a situation where the Left can only continue--successfully continue--to ever more aggressively push the envelope. Their strategy--those who supposedly speak for us--gurantees defeat. It surrenders a major part of the primary argument on our side, i.e. personal freedom in one's own choices, while allowing the foe to pick targets one at a time, while citing the previous now conceded triumphs in restricting the rest of us, as a precedent.

Can anyone imagine fighting a war, where every bit of territory previously gained by the foe, is forever conceded to the foe? How long would it be, with such a method of engagement, before the result was total conquest of the idiots employing that methodology?

Instead, please consider adopting this approach: "Civil Rights" Or Personal Freedom.

Another obvious advantage of a realistic counter-attack that concedes nothing, is that it avoids the necessity of appearing as anti-anyone--something that much of the youth has been conditioned to reject without analysis.
