Support

Our local SuperMegaGroceryConglomerate recently completed a major renovation that increased its floorspace to roughly the size of the pre-Katrina Superdome. To their credit, they have opened up a lot of that space to community groups for meetings and fundraisers of all kinds.

The other day, there was a group with a table set up near one of the 57 front doors. They had a sign that said

Hot Dogs $1
benefits Multiple Sclerosis

Then when I went to check out, the cashier asked me if I wanted to donate $1 to multiple sclerosis.

Er, no... I might give money to fight it, but I have a policy against donating money to help support deadly diseases.

Stop The War.
