in all honesty theres better things to donate money to than some lady who got picked on by some kids.
Helping flood/tornado/hurricane/etc victims and shit like that. Wasnt there just a big flood out west somewhere?
Nobody is stopping you from donating there.
No tax on gifts or inheritance
Wrong there is a state and federal level inheritance tax.
Yeah the state will take their cut, she’ll probably get 1/2 :rofl
I bet you wouldn’t be saying that if the donation was coming to you.
Think about the collection of Matchbox cars you could have with that kind of money.
I could be wrong but I don’t think they consider it a “inheritance” HOWEVER being that it is NYS I am sure come next tax season the state will rape her when she claims the donation she receives.
Yep. Either way NYS will break it off in her ass.
Nys is going to start paying little kids to bully others into viral videos as a new tax revenue plan :rofl
That wouldn’t shock me in the slightest bit.
Estate tax (inheritance tax) dosent apply unless the estate is worth more than $1 million. Im pretty sure gift tax is anything over $60k, but I may be wrong as i think it can also be assumed under estate tax.

Well she is well on her way to $1 million. $466,597 at 9:12am…and the fund is open for 29 more days.
Donations will slow once the buzz wears off.
I am with PJB on this one. Yes its very nice and all to see the money going to her. But seriously, the ammount of money its up to is just unreal.
People will donate to someone they dont even know, yet feel bad for.
But bitch about paying taxes to keep up the community around them.
I dont get people sometimes.
People will spend their money on something they want to spend it on. Isn’t that how it should be?
If people want to donate their hard earned money to this woman, so be it. Who’s who to judge on if there are more important causes out there to donate to?
I read this morning she’s close to $500G in donations.
Donations are up to $495k, and then someone made a petition for Obama to let her get the money tax free.
I agree. While I won’t be donating because I think the amount is a little ridiculous already if I choose to donate to a “let’s kill every puppy in America” fund raiser with my own money no one can stop me.
Edit: also what’s viewed as “more important” in someone’s eyes could be at the bottom of the list in someone else’s eyes.
This.
Who gives a shit who donates money to what causes. Let people do with their money as they please.
Although I agree it seems that the amount donated at this point is a little excessive, it’s safe to say that this lady will never have to work again after it’s all said and done.
I also heard that some people from 4Chan went out and got names of every kid that were involved in this debacle, and listed their parents names, linkdin accounts, facebook accounts, phone numbers, home addresses, their outstanding debts, etc. Talk about karma.
^Heard about one kid getting death threats through text message and voice mail, maybe they’ll go back to picking on EMO kids next time.
