Self-righteous, hypocritical JERKS!

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Planting Peace has had funding pulled for one of its orphanages in Haiti because they also support LGBTQ rights and equality.

Think about that for a second: Someone dislikes the idea of equality for gays so much that they're punishing orphans in one of the poorest places in the world!

Planting Peace is now running a CrowdRise campaign to try to make up some of the shortfall. If you can, please donate and help spread the word.
