And what person would oppose OTHERS giving to charity any case? I you're opposed, stay out. If you do post, what do you hope to gain? That you might convince others not to give? Why would you do that? Why not hop on a plane to Africa and go and take the food and medicine of a starving, AIDS-suffering child yourself? Because that would the the effect if people were convinced by your arguments. I'm sober now, and I just don't understand why people couldn't just leave the thread alone if they didn't agree. Let people who want to do something for others, inspire others who want to give to others without all this muckraking. |

Make sense? No-one's having a go at you. All I did was offer some perspective that you might actually have more than you realise, and that others just might be worse off, and that we can all do something very little, to help other people. But if you don't feel you can, then don't! It's that simple. Furthermore, those of us who support charities and aid to Africa, more than likely support social policies that would help you survive easier. So you're attacking allies Robert. We're not your enemy. |

I see that Armani has some Red products available in some U.S. states (not VA yet). I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for Red products if they do spread out to my area. I certainly wouldn't mind helping someone else by buying a product I was going to buy anyway. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yorick, two other mods have already called for peace to return to this thread and robertthebard already bowed out as he should.
You are not doing Leonis's thread any favors in continuing the argument with somebody who did as he was asked. |

Fair call. Didn't see he'd bowed out. I lost my glasses last night, so my reading is not up to speed...

My pleasure, Leonis. Sometimes it's easier from the outside.
