to 5:30 p.m. on the day in question. They charged people $40 to enter and seven people (besides organizers) chose to participate, resulting in $280 being raised.“We had several people choose to not participate in the 60-minute fundraiser, and many of them returned at 5:30 when the fundraiser was over,” Newland wrote, noting that the bar holds weekly fundraisers for a variety of LGBTQ nonprofit organizations.Unfortunately, some online users heeded Guggenheim’s call to “blast” Buddies, and the bar’s Yelp page received several one-star reviews, with commentators referencing the incident and the bar’s alleged ideological discrimination against gay conservatives.“Denied entry to gay people who are not ideologically aligned with the left.

Really unfortunate and pathetic.
