We Scare Away Prospects

Lately, I have been working with a really unique group out of Huntington, West Virginia.
They came onto the Podcast I co-host with Bianca Prince and I have been helping to run their Twitter. 
This group was working towards making an all local hotdog and all local toppings. This, too me, is an amazing mission. I helped to push their mission through Twitter and their Kickstarter. So, surprise surprise, they met their goal of 5,000 dollars! 
This is a joyous victory for me, but throughout the campaign, people were heckling this group because they wanted to give people topping options for their hotdogs. Apparently, this is hot dog blasphemy because the "West Virginia Hot Dog" is this
















I don know about you, but I just barfed a little. I would never eat this. Not judging those who do either though. My point is why harass someone trying to make a good thing happen in our state? They weren't trying to make "the West Virginia Dog"  but an actual, all local hot dog from West Virginia.Do you know whats in normal hotdogs? Ew, right?
Why should we punish people for being different and innovative? This isnt a dictatorship and I have a feeling that even Mussolini wouldn't care less what you put on your hot dogs.

Stop punishing people for being anything else but you.
