Wow! I thought I was the only one feeling that way and that I was such a horrible person for it. Excuse my language, but the public is getting screwed! it has turned into begging and the greed still continues. we all have lives to lead and there are other "tragedies" that need to be tended to. What happened on 9/11 was horrifying, but we have all done what we can do, why be so pushy? I donated blood to the RED Cross. That's what they are supposed to be for, right? United Way didn't get a dime from me. I sent donations to search and rescue groups and ASPCA.

There are other causes that need funding. Some people aren't into donating to animal causes; they feel organizations for causes dealing with humans are more worthy. I am not saying I agree, but some people are lick that. If so, fine, we are all entitled to our opinion and free to support various causes. What about the abused women and children causes? How about AIDS research? If people were not so easily influenced by the media. Billions of dollars being spent on what?

It's a shame! You know what is so crazy!
