UM..UH...ER...WHAT?
So this compassionate freeper posts what I think is a very eloquent statement, and just look at the lovely responses, especially the first one, where the person MAKES IT ALL ABOUT THEM.

Burns me up just thinking about it. I would offer that as liberals, I'll take some of our self absorption over theirs ANY DAY!

2. Holy shit!
I read some of those comments, and while I allow that there are some comments on this board that make me cringe sometimes, I am just appalled at the insensitivity of the Freepers who posted in that thread. One suggested that we only help those "willing to work", specifically that we don't help anyone who's on welfare.

Another wondered why people didn't just "walk out of the city."
