There's always a few bad apples in the bunch, not much you can do about it.

No hate, frankly I could care less what someone else gives or doesn't give. I actually kinda feel bad for ya, but that's another thread.

Looks like Robertson is officially senile. If you're a conservative Christian, fine. But at least be a conservative Christian with some common sense.

Guys like this are why conservative Christians look terrible to many people who aren't.

This made think of a cartoon in the Newspaper years back, I tried to find it to no avail.

Anywho it should like a white board in a publisher's office and it had like a formula on it.

Basically it said if 10 Americans die front page, 10 Europeans 2nd page, etc... then some third world country 10 die it would be in the Style section. Basically saying we as Americans have little symptom for the rest of the planet. Which seems to be somewhat true, sadly.

I had a lot of international friends when I lived in NOVA and a common theme amongst all of them was that Americans knew little and cared little about anything outside of the US.

Is there a reason why we're giving Trample so much attention here? This thread shouldn't be about Trample and how he feels about the rest of the world. It seems like this thread isn't even about Haiti anymore, but instead it's all about Trample and the type of person he is...or at least the type of person he wants to come across as here.

We fear things that are different from us! Send Trample into exile! But no seriously. TTE is okay with me.

But good point SS. Back to Haiti.

I wish I could donate money but I'm already having problems making ends meet. Instead I think I might head down to the Red Cross and give blood. I'm sure they'll need lots of it after this disaster.

After you give blood go have a few drink and they will knock you over.

Point well taken

I'll give some blood. They tell me O+ is pretty good stuff. I haven't gotten any ink in awhile, so it should be cool.

Good question . Seems that anyone who feels strongly about donating ... would do so out of compassion , not so they could " brag " about giving , then piss on anyone who doesn't . I give to a few charities and foundations , but I don't tell my friends , and then bash them if they don't also give ? Lets just hope < or pray > for the best for all of the people in Haiti , as making personal attacks on other/s won't help anyone . Wishing for the best in Haiti and hope everyone has a good safe night .
