Related: About this forumTYT: Anti-Gay Pizza Shop Gets Sliced By Internet
Its been a rough day for Memories Pizza, an Indiana pizza joint with the dubious distinction of being the first business to openly announce it discriminates against the LGBT community under Indianas new Right to Shroud Your Bigotry In Religion legislation.
Crystal OConnor, whose family owns the small-town pizzeria, proudly displays her hatred. If a gay couple came in and wanted us to provide pizzas for their wedding, we would have to say no, she said Monday.
But, of course, OConnor claims that they in no way discriminate. We are a Christian establishment, she explained. Were not discriminating against anyone, thats just our belief and anyone has the right to believe in anything.

I hafta' wonder just how just of that money that was raised will actually find it's way to these bigots. The BigCon hate industry will take a BIG bite, I recon.

I've read in several places that the GoFundMe account was registered by an associate of Glenn Beck. The Pizza Bigots may not see a dime of it.
The rubes are fleecing themselves. I don't know whether to be sickened or awed at this point.
