Oklahoma City, OK - Hobby Lobby CEO David Green finds himself headed for yet another controversy after donating $14.88 million to “White Lives Matter.”
Green is no stranger to such controversies, including using the company’s “religious beliefs” to successfully challenge a provision of Obamacare.
Now Green has inserted Hobby Lobby into the “Black Lives Matter” conversation. His move was donate to “White Lives Matter” claiming that his store’s key demographic had been persecuted for things like purchasing multiple “Live, Love, Laugh” frames for their homes, bedazzled crucifixes, or really loving Starbucks’ pumpkin spice lattes.
“Won’t someone please think of the poor, persecuted white Christians and soccer moms of America? First they took away our right to own slaves. Then they took away our right to impose our religion on others in school. What’s next, white internment camps or us being forced to accept all races and creeds in our stores? We must secure a future for white Christians before it is too late.”
We will update this story as more details become available.
Are you kidding me? I was reading the article and then you dragged me down here to respond before I could even finish. I can’t comprehend what absolute moron thought this feature was a good idea.
Wait… Whose quote is that at the bottom?

hey folks.. learn how to read the media critically.. its just a joke.. a shitty joke.. but its just an onion like shit-post..
If David Green and/or Hobby Lobby isn’t suing for defamation of character, then he agrees with this idiots thinking, and should be boycotted by BLM supporters.
There is no respect of person. Most families are multi cultural. It’s not what color you are it’s the human race. I don’t shop at Hobby Lobby.
when I know better I do better - I will no longer shop at hobby lobby.
That is exactly what black Americans have been trying to get ppl to understand for decades, “Its not what color you are, its the human race”.
White lives DO matter!
All lives matter. But its Black Lives that are being brutally killed by the police.
Actually it is all lives being brutally murdered by police. They just don’t make a fuss about that. I am a white woman that was hit by a cop and my face slammed into my back window by a cop but no one cared. I had a black eye but it wasn’t news worthy.
Well that’s on you if you didn’t make it news worthy. WE care about our people so we will speak out. Why do you all care so much if we speak out, It’s our truth and our pain. Of course many races are killed by the police, but our race seem to see more and we’re standing up and making A FUSS ABOUT IT.
Again look at the actual numbers y’all are wrong that’s why it makes us mad cus what y’all are speaking and making a fuss about is absolutely and completely false!!!!
You’re lying. White people don’t get beaten by police officers. You got a photo of that? Care to share it? Is there a videotape of said officer doing that? Why haven’t you posted it on social media? For all we know, you could have gotten that black eye from picking fights in back alleys, white lady. #blacklivesmatter
You’re right no one fucking cares. #blacklivesmatter
All lives do matter however you’re here to tell your story. How many black lives end up on a R.I.P. shirt from the exact same situation. That’s the whole reason for the movement.
So sorry that you had that experience, but white people are not being mistreated by police at the same magnitude as blacks. Let’s be honest here. As much as white people have protested/complained through the years about a whole host of other topics to enforce change If they were being consistently mistreated/killed by police, reform would have been implemented years ago.
At least you are here to speak about it. Hooray
No it’s not their the only ones that are on the media look up the actual numbers
Everyone being killed and look up Chicago how many just got killed on father’s day lol black lifes matter but no one want to talk about other killings or how many others get killed by cops or jow many cops are being killed
No they don’t
Who said they didn’t?
All lives matter. Black, white, red, yellow, brown. This is the message that Black Lives Matter is trying to get across. I guess for most to understand, just think of it as Black Lives Matter, Too!
It’s not trying to say that Black lives are better…. but they just want a seat at the table, not eat the scraps thrown in the floor. Does that make sense?
Yes they do, even the ones that people abort. Not all but a whole lot of white people…don’t believe that our lives matter…the police are not killing your white fathers, brothers, or sisters…its a form of lynching lawfully…WAKE THE FUCK UP.
White lives have always mattered. That’s the problem. Black lives matter, too !! It’s time for all lives to matter! No more Hobby Lobby for me.
nobody said they didn’t dumbass
Who ever said that they didn’t???? 🤷🏽♀️This is usually the statement made by a racist.
Guys its ok to steal from Hobby Lobby from now on
Will not shop at hobby lobby ever again because all lives matter not just white matches black everyone matters and enough of the racism and I am in Hinesville Georgia and I will not walk into Hobby lobby ever again and I will share this post with everybody else
Don’t believe everything you read. Check out the facts for your self before you judge. All lives matter and yes we need to be there right now for the black lives that are struggling, but the Democratic party is the one that is putting all these struggles out there trying their best hold down the black population by feeding all these riots.
🤣😂 You sound ridiculous.. here we go with the Repub propaganda again! Stop it already. BLACK LIVES MATTER!!! The silent and oververt action have always screamed “Only White Lives Have Value”.. so again, go away and sit down!
I am a white successful Yale graduate. I kove crafting but because of these racist remarks from this so call Christian CEO I will no longer shop at Hobby Lobby
You madam… are a Karen through and through!
I will never spend another penny in there either, racist bastard.
Thank you Mary Smith. With all of the civil unrest currently occurring in this country, we don’t need this kind of foolishness being reported (satire or not). It’s very insensitive to incite more civil unrest than what is already occurring. Publish something encouraging and uplifting or don’t publish anything at all.
And if David Green, Hobby Lobby CEO, isn’t angry about this crap being published, then he agrees with it and deserves to be boycotted by everyone who is tired of Black people being killed and/or being treated unjustly.
This man has got a lot of money and still wants something for free. Free labor! This is what the Bible talks about when it warns against “The love of money.” Also Jesus warns it is “Easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into Heaven.” Can’t take it with you! Check yourself; that once saved always saved doesn’t flow with God. You are demonically saved in your own eyes. If you do not repent, hell will be your eternal home. Not my word but God’s Word! He will not have this kind of idiotology in Heaven. He’s already kicked your father out along with his followers.
Not a duplicate!

Oh for fucks sake, this is a shitpost website! They’re inciting anger and you’re all falling for it. There were no donation for White Lives Matter and the quote is so fake, you can literally tell it’s meant to trigger people. However, continue on with your shit and you’ll continue to get shot. If you value items over your life, then your life doesn’t matter.
I don’t think it is meant to incite anger so much as it is a sarcastic joke. Sometimes a bit too soon for some without that sense of humor. But the point you need to be pushing is that people are getting excited about things without checking their validity. People “should” know by now that what you read on the internet is lies, opinions, lies, sensationalism, lies, a few truths blended in, and more lies. You must search for the truths. People have become so lazy and trusting that what they read and hear must be the truth. That is how Trump got and retains his base. It is so easy to anonymously comment and vent your feelings online. It makes them feel like they are actually participating.
If you did any research at all, and I’m ashamed every time people don’t, you would all know this is a SATIRE SITE. Now if you don’t know what that is, RESEARCH. In the future, know that what you read on the internet is not always true and before commenting or definitely before sharing, research.!!!
Guys, this is a SATIRE. Please quit believing a headline without doing any research to see if it is actually true. This website is called American-Buffoon and you are proving yourself to be such by actually believing this.
All you that scream all lives matter or white lives matter movement. Why do you wait to scream it when we are going through it huh? I didn’t hear a darn thing about white lives matter or all lives matter before our black men were murdered. You people are ridiculous and our people are being hung from trees and they are saying suicide come on. Cancer matters too yet we celebrate breast cancer in October. Please stop putting the light on a cause that isn’t even having issues. Some Caucasians are taking the our lives in their own hands, we can’t run, jog or breath. We can’t chant “Black Lives Matter”. We can’t have white privilege, we can’t have our own culture without it be stolen. What can we have or do in this great America huh?
In 1492 the thief Christopher Columbus stole land from natives and claimed it as his own, officer Columbus’s all across the world are stealing black lives. Wake up people this company wasn’t supporting white lives matter until the issue of black lives matter became a nationwide thing. It’s sad and disgusting that this company would even sow into something as such as disregard black lives matter. Yet, this is supposed to be a Christian company. The first commandment love your neighbors it didn’t just say whites there was no color. Shame on him!!!
Hobby Lobby is a great store and so glad David Green is standing up. Boston is for you!
Hobby Lobby is a great store and so glad David Green is standing up.
I’m black and Hobby lobby was my go to store for anything I needed, I create centerpieces for weddings and I decorate for Easter etc.
Girl I NEVER would have thought in a million years that this man felt this way especially claiming to know who God is.
He actually believes that he should have slaves and we are nothing…The God I believe in and the kjv bible teaches us to love one another, without love you have nothing..
Anyways..NEVER AGAIN WILL HE GET MY COTTON PICKING MONEY.
PEACE
Half of y’all are wrong, half of y’all are right, most of y’all are wrong and right, all of y’all are both!!🙌🤔
