"Relentlessly Gay" Yard Caused A Neighborhood Battle

Baltimore-resident Julie Baker, a widow and mother of four, created a set of rainbow-colored mason jars with the words "Love" and "Ohana" and hung them outside her frontyard. (Ohana, for those of you who haven't seen Disney's Lilo & Stitch cartoon, is the Hawaiian word that means "family.")

Baker didn't think too much of her handicraft until one day, she opened her door to find a note from her neighbor. The note said:

Your yard is becoming Relentlessly Gay! Myself and Others in the neighborhood ask that you Tone It Down. This is a Christian area and there are Children.

Keep it up and I will be Forced to call the Police on You! Your kind need to have Respect for GOD.

A Concerned Home Owner.

But Baker didn't "tone it down." Instead, she planned to turn it up even higher. After she shared the story with a friend who posted it on Facebook, the story went viral, and Baker has started a Go Fund Me campaign.

"I am starting this fundraiser so I can work to make my Home even More 'relentlessly gay.' If we go high enough, I will see if I can get a Rainbow Roof! Because my invisible relentlessly gay rainbow dragon should live up there in style!" Baker added, "Put simply, I am a widow and the mother of four children, my youngest in high school and I WILL NOT Relent to Hatred. Instead I will battle it with whimsy and beauty and laughter and love, wrapped around my home, yard and family!!!"


"Hello, 9-1-1? I'm calling because my neighbor has some jars neatly arranged in her yard. Well...the problem is that the jars are gay. Yes, I'm aware that jars cannot have a sexual orientation, but that's not the point. I either want the jars completely removed or I want their colors to be less gay. No, I don't know what colors aren't gay..."

You all are so gullible! Can't you see this is a little scam (growing over big over $25000) to gain support for her hobby and gofundme campaign? I am not religious. I am an atheist. I am skeptical there is a God. I am also skeptical of manipulative people who draw on hatred of alleged "haters". Keep an open mind, but also, always seek out the truth no matter what your feelings towards any group are - gay or christian.
