Death threats force Christian pizzeria to close

Facing death threats and pressure from the pro-”gay marriage” movement, a family-owned pizza business in Indiana was forced to close its doors.

Openly Christian owners Kevin and Christie O’Connor of Memories Pizza in Walkerton were asked by a reporter how they would respond to the state’s new Religious Freedom Restoration Act and said: We would serve gay individuals at the restaurant but due to religious beliefs, would decline to cater a same-sex wedding.

The comments quickly went viral, and within hours, the shop owners said they received vicious threats – to include vows to harm and kill them – and so in fear, shut their doors, at least temporarily. In one widely reported threat, a Concord High School coach named Jess Dooley tweeted: “Who’s going to Walkerton, IN to burn down #memoriespizza w me?”

God is Good. In 1 day a go fund me page has raised nearly $400,000 for this restaurant. I just gave $50.
Boycott all you want lunatics. These people will end up with a lot of "dough" because of your hate.

Evil wins when its allowed to silence and intimidate.

Watching the reactions and filthy actions from the people and groups who live a filthy and disgustingly abnormal lifestyle against Memories Pizza is pretty hate filled. What are these putrid degenerates really about. It is an agenda that shouldn't be supported. "They" are the ones exhibiting true hate.

Is Jess Dooley in jail yet for terrorist threats? If not, why not?

Not sure if it's going to be for terrorist threats 6:34 but she is going to be charged with something.
Authorities are waiting on verification of her IP and her Twitter account info.
While she has admitted she made the Tweet that could change. All I's have to be dotted and T's crosses so there is no question that the Tweet came from her device and that she was the one who was responsible for Tweeting the statement. In other words it couldn't have been another person using her device.

America MUST stand up to the gay mafia.
They are becoming more bold because they are getting away with so much intimidation and coercion.

I know I'll be called names and belittled for what I say and believe, but guess what.. I don't care. I know who and what I am, and I don't need their approval or validation.

Do you?

Take a stand, America!

Last check $509,000+ has been raised for Memories Pizza.
This is burning up the Homonazis. They are on a support FB created for the pizza joint saying this was a planned effort by the family so they could get bigots nationwide to send them money because they were going broke.

In fairness to all,rarely does a Catholic based business ever go under,and if it does,poor management is usually the culprit.That is a fact.

Death threats are standard fare for both low brow liberals and low brow conservatives. It is a shame we have developed the ability to communicate our thoughts to such a high degree when this kind of abuse is the extent of the brain power of so many.
