News GoFundMe Rejects Campaign To Support South Carolina Officer Charged With Murder - GoFuckYourself.com

The popular crowd-funding site GoFundMe rejected a campaign to raise money for the South Carolina officer charged with fatally shooting an unarmed black man last week.

Officer Michael Slager, 33, was charged Tuesday with first-degree murder for the killing of 50-year-old Walter Scott after video footage surfaced, showing Scott being shot multiple times with his back turned and running away. The video also appears to show Slager planting a taser by Scott?s body as evidence the shooting was in self-defense.

GoFundMe confirmed it removed a campaign supporting Slager, who was fired Wednesday.

?After review by our team, the campaign set up for Officer Slager was removed from GoFundMe due to a violation of our Terms and Conditions,? Kelsea Little, GoFundMe?s public relations manager, told ThinkProgress via email.

Details on exactly which terms and conditions were breached were not disclosed due to privacy protections. GoFundMe can only ?discuss the details of campaigns with the organizers,? Little said.

News of the campaign having been removed began circulating on Twitter after the campaign?s organizer who has set up a Twitter account supporting Officer Slager tweeted that GoFundMe rejected the page.

The ACLU would be the first to point out their rights as Americans to do so.

You know everyone has the right to hire legal council, "The Sixth Amendment"

Everyone also has the right to freedom of speech, in this case asking for money "The First Amendment"

Yes, the website has their own terms of service and can deny that service to whomever they wish. However your particular glee in depriving someone from legally raising money for a legal defense, no matter how big a murdering dirt-bag he/she might be isn't something a liberal Democrat should be proudly boasting about. Is it?

I do agree with the police dept agreeing to continue his wife's medical insurance, since she's pregnant. Shouldn't punish her and the unborn baby. That kid is already punished enough for having a dad he'll only see through bars.

Diomed · 04-10-2015, 04:02 PM

Fuck that cop.

Fair is fair, he should do life.

You can't just use lethal force for some petty crime, regardless if he did resist arrest.

Is it stupid to resist arrest? Fuck yes. Does it deserve seven shots in the back? Fuck no.

Hang em.

I don't object to it but it does make me snort a little to know that cops kill citizens and don't give a shit about their wife or kids.
