GoFundMe ends payments to convoy protest, citing reports of violence
- beebmam 5y agoIt's becoming more common to see violent rhetoric used across the political spectrum. What a shame. Violence, even threats of violence, does irreparable harm to others.
- ipaddr 5y agoIs this the end of gofundme as a platform for many?
- refurb 5y agoNice of them to not automatically refund the donations but rather send them to “reputable charities”.
- mytailorisrich 5y agoWhich, arguably, is theft since that money does not belong to them. Edit: I suspect that this is why they also say that people "can request a refund". They should refund automatically but I also suspect that that would make them lose whatever fee they charge on donations...
- LocalH 5y agoThey should refund 100% unless they receive explicit directions from individual donors to forward the money to charity, and it should be to the charity of the donor's choice, without exception.
