Julie Baker is a resident of Baltimore. She has decided to show her support for equality with these lamps:


This earned an irate response from a neighbor:

?1434697592

Which earned this further response from Baker, in the form of a GoFundMe campaign:
I opened my door, and found a note from my neighbor. Regarding a set of rainbow jar solar lights hanging in my yard that spell out "Love" and "Ohana". They informed me that the neighborhood is "christian" and has "children" and asked me to stop being "relentlessly gay"....

Needless to say... I need more rainbows... Many, many more rainbows….

So, I am starting this fundraiser so I can work to make my Home even More "relentlessly gay" If we go high enough, I will see if I can get a Rainbow Roof!
