IF we left it up to karma, penalties (such as fines) would not apply.
Karma's not necessarily about retribution/penalties..but that's a discussion for another thread.
You missed the point, they are claiming they shut it down because they were convicted of a crime. Yet there are loads of people raising money for money for fines and representation to appeal their convictions of crimes.
They didnt say they stopped it because gays complained (which clearly is the real reason)
Exactly.
This gets even more mindblowing, it was a competitor to that business who raised the complaint to gofundme:

Can you provide another example of someone using it to pay their fine for breaking the law?
Stop being retarded. Thats not what they said they pulled it for, they said they pulled it because they had been convicted of criminal activity and were raising funds in connection to that.
So are many other criminals, but that seems to be ok.
They showed they are hypocrites.
This is the last time i intend to humor your trolling. :wave2:

Appealing is trying to prove that you didn't commit a crime. That is what others are doing.
I guarantee that if the child molester was raising money to pay retribution it would also get pulled immediately too.
You putting your fingers in your ears and pretending your made up discrimination is somehow real does not make my presenting of facts trolling.
Nothing to see here folks. Just more victim cards being played.

Also, I will say that I support the bakery's right to deny service.
I also support gofundme's right to deny service.
But somehow people around here think two wrongs will make a right.

Help Mothers Pay Protesting Fines
TSA fines responsible Mother (she had a gun in her luggage) money to pay her legal fines
There are tons more, i think these couple that popped right up are enough to show blatant hypocrisy on the part of Gofundme.
After Bakers’ Fundraising Campaign Shut Down, Florist Who Rejected Same-Sex Wedding Faces Same Fate
And she hasn't been convicted yet or cited a fine yet and hers is to offset legal costs. (you know that you claim is "different" than paying fines...)
Seems like something to see here to me.

Well, by all means, report this violation of terms and conditions to the website.

The Irony: The Baker gets sued and fined then Gofundme won't get sued and fined for also being discriminatory? There is that pesky double-standard again.

That is where affirmative action has gotten us. We think we have a right to 'every cake.' As long as there is an equitable cake (which was the black/white fountains and restrooms etc.) these should be served on a case by case basis. If someone can show that it isn't 'fair' (by fair, that they are denied equitable resources), then okay. Otherwise :nono: "Take your case somewhere else please." The problem really is religious. I don't have a problem with someone 'lawfully' exercising their religious convictions. I think I agree with you on that. We need to dial down Affirmative Action and get back to a place where we evaluate a person's claim on an individual basis as to equitability. We don't have a right to 'every' cake imho. I sure don't have a right to 'kosher' beef. If someone has a legitimate religious reason for denying me service, I'd be taking away 'their' right, if I demanded that.
My right should not overtly demand over another's. There needs to be equitability with all our rights, as much as possible. That, I think, is what our Constitution guarantees.

Yes, but also, if there is an equity, not necessarily 'that' particular one. I'm not sure what that'd apply to, however.
I didn't mean to single out just religion either. There might be other reasons someone is convicted of something important. For the private business sector, they are actually 'losing' business to say 'no.' It seems weird that they then have to pay a fine for 'losing business.' Seems like their choice. What would be weird is, if someone said 'no' because I'm Republican or Democrat. How would they be able to discriminate?
Business owners know they need to have customers to stay in business. If enough people boycott a business, they too have the right to help put it out of business. We need to let private squabbles stay more private in my mind.
