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.

Yam Skinner @YamSkinner Follow @Salon It "deserves" to receive death threats and threats of arson? Wow, you guys really are tolerant. 6:35 AM - 2 Apr 2015

Phineas Fahrquar @irishspy Follow I say this with all sincerity, @Salon: Go. To. Hell. 9:14 AM - 2 Apr 2015

Popehat @Popehat Follow Just when I thought Salon couldn't get any more vile: 9:08 AM - 2 Apr 2015

Guy goes in to Muslim-owned bakery shop in Muslim neighborhood (you can see the store signs Arabic characters up and down the street).

Guy does a good job of affecting a bit of a pansy accent and engages shop owner in describing the cake he wants, “Russell & Steve Forever in script,” also a photo he wants silkscreened (or whatever the process is called) onto the top of the big layer, etc etc.

It’s actually pretty funny, the Muslim owner goes over it and over it with him, nodding his head and saying Yes oh yes photograph yes yes frosting like such yes oh yes...

Guy says, Then you can do it?

Shopowner: No.

He directs the guy to other bakeries in the area and the guy is responsible enough to admit that some of the Muzzie bakeries were ready to make the cake.

But most weren’t and, as the guy says, Where is the outrage about THEM?

And the truth is that the vast majority of the attacks and comments were created by a small handful of people using software commissioned and financed by George Soros.

Its as phony as Obingo.

I know lots of churches that can't keep their doors open because they don't stand for or against anything.

Ah! I see! They're just like the republican party!

The beards and outfits were all part of the theater act Castro put on for New York liberals and it worked.

He directs the guy to other bakeries in the area

Yeah!

No one is forcing him to buy from that bakery, why should that bakery be forced to sell to him?

As opposed to the republicans whose ACTIONS (and deliberate inactions)have resulted in untold deaths?

Free speech bad, free action good?

I'm delighted at the $$$ pouring in to the pizza store owners. However, it seems to me that future problems lie in wait for them when and if they intend to re-open.

The young clerks will live in fear every time a weirdo walks in the store. Security will be an ongoing problem....as the owners' Christian faith will be a continual thorn in the side of the gaystapo and leftist radicals and sickos.

The phone will continually ring with fake orders being given. Call-in orders are a major part of any pizza parlor's business.

Delivery personnel will be on wild-goose chases and it'll be scary when they ring doorbells.

Drive-by attacks on the parlor's front windows with eggs, paint, rocks and worse are a distinct possibility,

Plus there'll be more problems and dangers I probably can't even think of....including the possibility that Lois Lerner's IRS heirs will target businesses that do not conform to their (or Obama's ideology.

If I were these pizza people, I'd use the money to open shop far away under a corporate name.....with a different name on the store's marquee.....in a far-away place. Or try to put together some kind of non-retail business to sustain themselves.

I simply cannot understand the posters on this and other threads that ascribe evil motives to these horribly unfortunate fellow citizens. It's devastating what's happened to them.....and their fear and jeopardy is not going away soon, if ever.

Put yourselves their places. The young lady spokesperson looks like she just climbed out of a World War One front-line battle trench after a poison-gas attack.
