December 18, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) – It seems that no good deed goes unpunished when LGBT social justice warriors (SJW) get involved, this time condemning a donut shop for using an organization they despise for helping the shop to locate a needy family for charitable giving at Christmastime.
Earlier this month a favorite doughnut shop in Portland, Maine, wanted to help out a local family of modest means during the Christmas Season.
“In a now-deleted Facebook post, the shop detailed how it was collecting warm clothes for a family with five children and two adults, and asked customers to donate hats, mittens, and sweaters in exchange for free doughnuts or T-shirts,” reported Christian News Service (CNS).
But “The Holy Donut” innocently and unknowingly stepped on a Yuletide landmine when it let it slip that they had reached out to The Salvation Army for help in identifying a poor family the shop could help.
The problem? Gays have, for many years, deemed The Salvation Army a bitter enemy because it views the venerable organization as having resisted LGBT ideology and demands.
The backlash from the LGBT world was swift and vicious.
Overnight, the bakeshop went from famous to infamous as homosexuals and their SJW allies launched an all-out social media campaign to punish the modest small business for working with an organization they disapproved of.
Soon, “the shop's Facebook page was littered with hundreds of comments, including many that accused The Salvation Army of discrimination after it posted about the fundraiser,” reported CNS.
The quick assault was so fierce, Rev. Franklin Graham called it a “Blitzkrieg.”

Man, the LGBTQIAA+ folks move like lightning to bully and harass all who do not agree with them.
They were extra quick on this once cause donuts remind them of boy booty holes.
Maybe they’ll love Sharia law better once it takes over...
So will the family just have to tough it out this winter?
It’s always good to keep Romans 1 in mind when considering the works of the activists who promote unnatural affections.
My response would have been:
To those offended by our act of charity, be offended. Our first priority was to help someone in need, not seek your approval.
To the majority of those not offended by our actions, we welcome you to enjoy our donuts.
they must look to the Muslims as examples of people who are not easily offended.
It must be a sad, sad life to be so filled with anger and hatred.
There seems to be a bacon donut in the front right of the photo.
They will, of course, be driven out of business unless someone helps them.
The donutshop apologized in one Facebook post and in another, the management of the bakeshop explained, “We do not support The Salvation Army or consider them our ‘partner’ for this project, they simply linked us to a needy family.”
There, fixed it. I'm retired military and I know the difference between a warrior and a whiner.
