* Right wing extremism pays very well, just ask Limbaugh.
* I guess the old live and let live rule is a street that only runs in one direction.
* So all I have to do is pretend to be a bigoted business and get some friends to phone in or tweet some "threats" and I'll get over three quarters of a million dollars from right wing idiots? Sweet!
* It warms the cockles of my heart to see how many "moral" "Christians" were so quick to send donations to uphold the American tradition of gay bashing and marginalization. Bigotry isn't dead, by any means. Not as long as "good" people keep supporting economic segregation.

$840K raised for Indiana pizzeria that backed religious law
By AP, April 4, 2015
A crowdfunding campaign for an Indiana pizzeria that came under fire after its owners said their religious beliefs wouldn't allow them to cater a gay wedding has raised more than $840,000.
Memories Pizza in Walkerton is closed indefinitely and its operators say they've gone into hiding.
But a gofundme.com site benefiting the restaurant had raised more than $842,000 by Saturday morning.
The restaurant about 20 miles southwest of South Bend faced criticism after co-owner Crystal O'Connor expressed support for Indiana's new religious objections law, which legislators tweaked this week to address concerns that it would allow discrimination against gays and lesbians.
The eatery's Facebook and Yelp pages have been bombarded with negative reviews, and a high school golf coach was suspended after a Twitter post mentioned burning down the restaurant.
