Ronald Mcdonald House refuses donation from lesbain
This a really sad. I spend a lot of my internet time on Youtube and I recently started watching videos by a user named PeppermintPatti. She has a non profit organization that helps get toys to sick kids(mainly build a bears). She has made several video of her and her kids making bears and touring a Ronald Mcdonald House.
Today she made a video saying after she delivered 40 bears to The RMH she was told to pick her bears back up because they were uncomfortable with her.
This is the video in her own words

OMG I'm watching this video and this is breaking my heart. Why does the world have so much hate? I wonder if she'll contact the ACLU
Re: Ronald Mcdonald House refuses donation from lesbain
First of all, the ACLU can't make a charity take a donation. As goofy as the ACLU is, even they know they wouldn't have a case here.
Second, I'm not saying this didn't happen but YouTube is essentially now turning into a new medium for people to take hoaxes past the realm of simple chain emails. Again, I'm not saying this didn't happen, but it does sound extremely fishy to me that a charity would refuse a donation because the person donating was gay. Even if they were real hardcore homophobes, this just doesn't make a lot of sense to me. This whole incident may have really happened but I dunno...my Spidey Sense smells a rat.

I can't believe that. For an organization to turn away a donation for children because of the donator sexual orientation??? How would they know she is gay in the first place?

OK Folks, lets not get all twisting of the facts.
She said another woman took in some of the bears and said she would make sure the kids got them.
The action of the homophobe was not on part of policy for the charity - obviously because the other woman DID ACCEPT SOME BEARS.
The ACLU can sue because these days they sue based on how many donations they can get in the door rather than for actual injustice.
If they win all that will happen is some more kids will be hurt because the money will go to the lawyers and the plaintiffs.

If I had only seen the one video I posted I link to I would agree with you, but I have seen several of her previous videos and she does seem in real. I admit she does have a little bit of an agenda, so I won't say she not another lonelygirl15.
Edit to add link
PeppermintPatti partner has made a response video
