My wife spent $500 on her dress. Her family paid for the very small wedding. We didn't have pizza, but BBQ chicken is messier than pizza. And the stain from such is just as bad as that from the sauce of a pizza.
No one knows for sure if that's the way it happened. They could have easily and quietly 'tipped' off the media, or had someone they know tip off the media to get the ball rolling. But even if the didn't start it, once it got going with all this money rolling in they'd be nuts not to keep playing it.
They're afraid for their lives but then they go on the blaze and tell the world hey we're home 24/7 now, basically saying we're here, at home, come and get us. LOL Sounds fishy. But hey, good for them. If people want to give them money for something like this? Amen.
Much easier to defend oneself at home than at a open place of business. Duh.
? They said they felt threatened at work so they are staying home for their safety. People know their names. The town they live in has about 2000 people in it. If someone wants to they don't have to be Colombo to figure out where they live.
And now they know the town supports them and they have police investigating which makes it safer to open back up. I'm sure there are plenty of liberals proud of what they put these good folks through, even though liberalism failed this time
So news crews don't go out looking for stories?
Have you tried to book a gay cruise?
Talk about playing this up for all the drama they can. Seriously. they are a small town pizza shop that has survived on the small population there for years. They aren't exactly on a major drag that relies on tourism for their business. The owner is smart. He is playing the right-wing for the fools that they are and is profiting off of them quite well.He has probably made more off of this martyr card than he has done in business for the last 5 years.
well.. ya know.. umm.. this family is actually being persecuted... and,well, you support it... openly.
Yep. People engage in all forms of discrimination. I think the group has talked about that in the past.Are there such things in the U.S.? I know there are "gay" cruises, but have no idea if they actually REQUIRE a person to be gay to book a room on them. I'd doubt it. And ships are weird anyway - they're all flagged with foreign countries so I'm not sure what laws apply to them.
I started a search then thought better of it - no telling what kind of ads Google would direct my way.....
It's a club. They can do that. I doubt the Tea Party caucus allows liberals to attend their meetings.
The CBC is a political org, not a commercial one so it doesn't fall under the Commerce Clause. The only people who can make them accept white members is the majority in Congress, who set the rules for the Congress
So go blame the majority in Congress. Hmm, I wonder who has the majority in Congress :shrug:
This all started when a local news crew stopped by and interviewed them. Then it took off. There's no such thing as bad publicity. They wouldn't be the 1st business to tip off the media, and then say a few controversial things to get some publicity. I doubt that they thought all this with the blaze and this fund would happen, but they could have very easily started it for a little local publicity.
And ships are weird anyway - they're all flagged with foreign countries so I'm not sure what laws apply to them.
So if they will serve gays, why do they need to be funded, and why are gullible cons giving them money?
Don't expect journalists or homosexual couples to set up a Muslim baker the way they've done with ChristiansI'm going to guess a Muslim shop wouldn't cater a gay wedding either. I'm going to keep guessing that that would be perfectly fine to people who are calling Memories Pizza hateful.

It's a possibility, I suppose... but there's been no evidence of such collusion.
it's a bit odd that so many lefties started bringing up this theory .. nearly in unison.
that's usually indicative of talking points being thrown out by some ideologically bent outlet.
They're forted up at home and the right-wing evangelical money is pouring into GoFundMe for them. :roll:
I believe that I'll save my sympathy for others.

This is a perfect example of what is wrong with America.
Everyone seems to be focused on this stupid little pizzeria and it's apparently bigoted owner.
Yet there is a stagnating economy, U.S. troops all over the world (under orders to) try and desperately to tell everyone else what to do, one massive budget deficit after one massive budget deficit, a stock market propped up by a Fed that seems clueless, global warming (to whatever extent people wish to argue about it's existence), California running out of water, Congress completely deadlocked in partisan politics, Gitmo, 40+ million Americans on food stamps and on and on...and this stupid little story is what everyone chooses to focus on?
It's like passengers on the Titanic arguing about deckchair layouts while the ship is sinking.
Sad.
