Sorry

vegas they have a pretty good donation coming their way soon, once the patches are done

 

exactly like southern Ca has had 2 weeks worth of fires, and Northern CA 1500 homes up in flames.

Its people like this that game Charities that i lose respect in for our world sometimes.

 

Literally last month was just horrific in terms of natural disasters and shootings

 

I'm still trying to rap my head around it, but crazy how much the nation has stood behind them

 

I agree!

 

It’s easy enough to jump on someone for posting something like that, yes It was in poor taste.

The question really is, and we will never know the answer, how many of you jumping on this guy would return the money if you received something like this? Or would you just keep the money and not tell everyone?

 

I was evacuated on Monday because of them!

 

really man not cool at all. give it to some one who needs it

 

i know my work closed early due to the air quality

 

i lost my house in the 1994 Cali earthquake

It was red tagged

I had full insurance

But I lost a lot of things and pets not covered by insurance or any disaster relief

I drank 30 days of fema provided water because we had nothing left ...


Last month had to evacuate due to fire here — largest at that time in Southern California


Why do I still live here ? Because I have low iq like Tillerson. Same reason I drive a 17 Pro that is the whipping boy of this forum

 

it's awesome - multiple members here have donated a lot too.

 

it is truly great to see!

 

Conceptually true enough, but there are alternatives.

You can donate through other vetted organizations.

The luster has rubbed off the RC, United Way and some other traditional big names in recent years.

It's not easy to know exactly where your dollar is best contributed. But it is worth the effort to find out, in advance, before you contribute, about the effectiveness of the organization.

 

If the money landed in my lap, that's one thing.

This was an application. OP applied to get the money. Wrong in either case, but worse when you voluntarily sought it out.

 

That’s a great point.

 

i get you, but alot of us would give it up for someone else, but everyone can only really speak for themselves you know? I know i wouldn't be taking money from people who really need it to better my build. It would be like using tainted money but that's just me.

 

Agreed 100%

We didn’t get or need any govt $$$ since we were insured. Many who weren’t , received govt aid as they deserved. It still wasn’t enough

Just disgusting to thing that people would take that money and buy truck parts ....

 

Pay it forward. People are losing everything all over the country.

 

OP – I hope you were joking.

If you weren't, then you are a disgusting for even considering that.
