AFTER CANCELLING CHRISTIAN BAKER’S DONATION PAGE, ‘GOFUNDME’ NOW SHUTS DOWN BALTIMORE COPS’ PAGE!

The Right Scoop ^ | 2 May, 2015 | Soopermexican

The “GoFundMe” crowdsource fundraising site has shut down a donation page for the legal costs of the Baltimore police officers involved in the death of Freddie Gray, after they shut down the donation page for a Christian bakery that was being punished

[Shery]

Wonder where the directives are coming from to do this? Why be so political? Does this mean that they will now monitor all funding activities and if Christian or even just sane projects set up funding requests they will deny them? What happens to the monies already donated?

[Genoa]

I think they claim it is anybody charged with a crime. We’ll see how consistent they are.

[expat2]

Sounds like someone should set up a conservative gofund site.

[NormsRevenge]

OH.. MoveON!! Nothing to see here. Just another lib site wreaking havoc..

[Oliviaforever]

Does Go Fund Me permit fundraisers for other people charged with crimes?

[demshateGod]

I guess we have to remember that corporations with any money these days are married to the federal government and their monopoly depends on government regulations.

[PGalt]

Very interesting. Thanks for posting.

[Regal]

Who are they? I guess they are some private company. DO they get a cut/how do they make money? Until a few weeks ago, I’d never heard of them.

[FredZarguna]

That was their original claim, however, when various people cited their support of many others charged with crimes, they issued a "new policy" that said they would not fund people "charged with discrimination."

Now, they've apparently got a third standard. Time to stop patronizing their business.

[lavaroise]

Yep, funding causes but running away from them because of risks. What kind of business like this refuses risks? It is a scam.

[Genoa]

Were the Baltimore six charged with discrimination?? I didn’t see that mentioned in the charges.

[Regal]

If you didn’t see it in the list of charges, then no.

[fatnotlazy]

GoFundMe takes 5% of the amount collected as its fee.

[MeshugeMikey]

Id be willing to bet that they’d host a FREE MUMIA...fund!

[FredZarguna]

I'm sure they'll have some new rationale.

Let's see...

"Go fu** me will not crowd source fund legal defense for people whose unions already provide the service."

" Yeah. That'll do. Till the next non-liberal cause comes along.

[erlayman]

I guess that was when the Memories Pizza came up because charges were never filed since that case did not violate any state or local law.

[Gaffer]

Sounds convenient. I now wouldn’t trust them to actually put my donation towards my choice any more than I would trust United Way.

[Morpheus2009]

Wonder if Soros has some shares of Gofundme? I would not be surprised.

[Genoa]

It must be forbidden to fund any cause that has been rioted, demonstrated, or otherwise condemned by the Revolution.

GoFu**Themselves.
