Gay-Rights Advocates Torpedo GoFundMe Campaign For Christian-Owned Bakery
By Valerie Richardson - The Washington Times - April 25, 2015 A crowdfunding campaign that had raised more than $109,000 for the Christian-owned bakery Sweet Cakes by Melissa in Oregon was removed Saturday after complaints from gay-rights advocates.
The website GoFundMe said in a statement Saturday that it took down the page because the campaign violated the policy against raising money “in defense of formal charges of heinous crimes, including violent, hateful, or sexual acts.”
“The campaign entitled ‘Sweet Cakes by Melissa‘ involves formal charges. As such, our team has determined that it was in violation of GoFundMe’s Terms & Conditions,” said GoFundMe in an email statement.
“The money raised thus far will still be made available for withdrawal,” said GoFundMe.
The Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries proposed a damages award Friday of $135,000 against Aaron and Melissa Klein, owners of the bakery, after they were found in violation of the state’s anti-discrimination law in February.

These perverts aren’t interested in peaceful coexistence—Time to start taking them out.
I’d like to know how much GO FUND ME execs get paid.
Last I heard, Franklin Graham’s Samaritan’s Purse took over the cause. That is harder for liberal gays to hound out. GoFundMe will no longer get any business for any Christian cause that involves “controversy.” Seems a condign consequence to me, they made themselves too odious to deal with.
No, they won’t be satisfied until everyone is publicly forced to celebrate their perversion.
“These perverts aren’t interested in peaceful coexistence—Time to start taking them out.”
Have fun, just don’t forget your arm length rubber glover.
And, expect you8r wife to tell you you are NOT going to take that thing to the taxidermist.
;-)
Brad Damphousse and Andrew Ballester are the two owners.
Have Koskinen send you their tax return info.
What percentage goes to the recipient?
It’s HATE! It’s HATE! It’s HATE! That’s how the protest goes. The amount of hate embodied in buggery addictions, that is spoken of less.
Here’s the link, with a way to donate...

These pervs must have had awful childhoods because they hate God and hate anyone religious who irks them....like not baking a perverted wedding cake for their bogus wedding
a small fraction of the execs and staff of the Clinton foundation
Someone needs to ask GoFundMe if it is their position that anyone accused of a crime is presumed guilty, if anyone who is found guilty is presumed guilty, and if people who think they’ve been falsely accused have a recourse to raise funds in their defense? Their answer seems to be yes, yes, and no.
No kidding! I’m suspect of all of them.
So find another crowdfunding site.
Gofundme can be sued for religious discrimination now. We should not hesitate to do so.
If I ever own a bakery I’ll tell these pervs I only discuss cakes for 10 minutes. I am far too busy and payment is in advance. I will quote a jacked up price
But first they have to fill out a form stating that 100% truth is required. Form will be for who or what the heck is getting married and for how many guests to eat. Once I see two pervs are getting married I take it from there
