Haiti

[Tupac]

i couldnt care much less about haiti at this point

[JonDoe999]

Well, I can't control people that don't care much for Haiti.

[Tupac]

oh, i *cared* until the stories about people trying to help were shot started coming up, like i said, daisycutters would do the job pretty well

[fudgums]

Still, no one else is helping them. Besides, they're confused. This WAS a historic earthquake. This is the first one in CENTRIES. They are poor. Do you know what was the oly thing standing down there, The American Embassy. It was the only structure built right.

Supposedly a jewish school building and playground in Port au Prince is still standing. Think about it.

I really dont know what to say, do you think They (Haiti ) gives a crap about me and you? we as a country need to focus on our people , we have plenty of homeless people thanks to the housing disaster, even this many years after Katrina the place is still a mess, so many homes just left as they were not even cleaned up yet, Americans going hungry, Jobs are going away, and we still dole out aid to every other country, which most of them dislike us anyways, but not our money !!

no wonder were in such a financial hole we keep giving the taxpayers money away like drunk sailors in a strip club, I've never seen such recklessness with taxpayers money. Celebrities are donating millions to Haiti  BUT will walk right past a homeless American and think nothing of it.

The boy, whose name wasn't released, was shot dead as he was leaving a Port-au-Prince cemetery after dropping off corpses, the paper reported.<p>

And two Dominican workers were shot as they were giving out food in the increasingly dangerous city, the country's police told MSNBC.<p>

See Rule #4

[Jayhawk]

You have made yourself clear, disturbingly clear.  Someday in the future, when you or someone in your family finds themselves in a situation where they need help, where their life depends on the goodness of mankind; someone will reach out a hand, someone who doesn't know you, maybe even someone who doesn't like you, and they will pull you up onto your own two feet.  They will do it without thinking, without reward, and without fear for their own well being.  Those are the people who get on a plane and fly to a place struck with violence and poverty because they might be able to save the life a little boy, a mother, a grandfather.  They choose to go, you can never loose hope in mankind when you think about those people.

I am done with this thread.

[Vulcan]

there is a video of helicopters dropping off food to the survivors, several gunman quickly open up and kill most of the crowd, taking the food for themselves.

I can't find this video - link please or are you making it up.

BTW did you advocate dropping a nuke on new orleans as well?
