They're a business, they make money............is this a surprise? What do you want? Buildings? No one else did anything! Tents aren't good enough?
Also, Over a 100k to risk your life is not a lot.
Ungrateful.
or start drinking the kool aid, big cup fulls. scahill cult dumb-asses die and fall into large hole. that's what i want to see in the news. go ahead drink your kool aid.
So they shouldn't give tents. what maybe buy people houses. gates isn't doing that. self rescue. thats the way to go.
Blackwater is not doing humanitarian aid, its a self serving mercenary outfit collecting big bucks at tax payers expense.

So they're doing humanitarian aid, its a good thing, protesting about them isnt going to end the company.

By dnHooligan [Affiliate User] 1194299065 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThis is the doodle brain who wanted them to come there in the first place. And the stuff they say it won't cost comes from contracts with the feds and CA paid by taxpayers, it's not free! Stop drinking the kool aid.
