Why is there no Hurricane Relief link at FreeRepublic?
Edited on Wed Aug-31-05 04:39 PM by Charlie Brown
I see links to the "You Don't Speak for Me, Cindy" fund and eminent domain info, but why nothing for relief along the Gulf Coast (these are red aras, after all)?

1. They hate their country/people and are totally infatuated with themselves?
:shrug: Just a possibility.

3. If it was Boise, ID or Dallas, TX they'd be going apeshit to help out.

13. I was making a subtle hint that their lack of action is probably racial.

17. Well....first off -
here in Boise, we don't get no gotdamned hurricanes! So there.

Boise itself is fairly blue, bubba. We're surrounded though by you-guessed-it.... them.

It's been beautiful here....nice temps (upper 70's) and sunny; I've felt guilty driving around in the sun.

5. Because they expect foreign countries to offer help?
Because they're selfish, obviously.

6. I don't know, but I intend to keep kicking this thread
every chance I get so that the Freepers can see it when they come to visit. Maybe it will embarrass them into doing something, the compassionless assholes. :mad:

9. Didn't you hear? "It's a great investment opportunity and those people
Had days to evacuate! It's their own fault! "

Yep that's what they are saying:

I cut and pasted some of the tamist ones so you wouldn't have to barf by reading all their posts:

15. Because they are not nice people, decent people, Christian people.
They have nothing but hate, intolerance, and selfish self interest to believe in. Their souls are shriveled, dried out lumps of discontent. IMHO.
