[GorillaGal]

and no one had to give him the 1000 pounds. he was asking for anything anyone could afford. every 10 pounds adds up.

i agree with you, why do you think im questioning why this thread was blocked................all i can say is i hope a few more people read and openly talk about this.

[GorillaGal]

free_cyprus,
excuse my ignorance, but were you able to help him out with a few pounds? i don't have time to go back and check the other thread (if it is even still there).
and yes, i think it is disgusting that it was blocked.....

What is disgusting is when some loser crook is coming to a forum trying to cheat some idiots to give him money. But maybe you got what you deserved

[Get Real!]

Unfortunately many people see two groups of social problems:

The first is the “honorable” social problems such as…

My child is sick, I’m unemployed, my wife is expecting again, my partner left me, etc

…and then we have the “dishonorable” socials problems such as…

I’m an alcoholic, I’m a drug user, I’ve got a gambling problem, I’m bankrupt, etc.

The truth is that ALL the above are common SOCIAL PROBLEMS that need to be dealt with urgently.

The junky or the alcoholic is as much a victim of the social environment as the unemployed, or the lady that just doesn’t know when to stop having children.

There is always the risk that we may be conned out of a few pounds but the risk that it may be for real is far more serious and the consequences far more severe.

How is it possible to sleep tight at night, and especially in this terrible weather we’ve had lately, knowing that somebody you know may have been evicted and desperately seeking shelter in a park or something?

I once saw a dead homeless man under a highway bridge in Perth (Australia) in the early nineties. He was malnourished, curled up from the cold, and looked a mess. In the days that followed nobody came forth to claim the body despite repeated requests by the police via the media so his identity remained unknown and was buried in an unmarked grave.

This is usually the end of the road for many people that have one or more of these social problems and are shunned away by society. First they become outcasts from society and a few months or years later get picked up by an ambulance from under a bridge or from a ditch.

Well said Get Real

I'm sure that none of the persons who helped will suffer any financial setback because of what they gave and if someone can be helped and benefit from a little genorosity of a few people then that must be good.

Get Real. Never really liked you from your comments in the past, but fair play to you for helping out. Respect

[Niki]

I did wonder if this was genuine but in all conscience I couldn't ignore this plea for help when to give a small amount would have meant so much.

I sincerely hope Fanos you will prove your worth.

I can however understand admin locking the thread - it was an emotional please and people were affected by this plea. If it is not genuine there could be legal problems attached to admin allowing this to continue.

My choice to give, my money, my life and I do not ask for opinions.
