Anyone else heard about this charity? Over the years we've had a lot of spirited discussions about our medical system and people who can't afford it. We may disagree on solutions but I think we can have somewhat universal agreement that the problem exists. So, I read this story about this charity: https://apnews.com/article/casey-mcintyre-rip-medical-debt-cfbe340f71e74a68425d0d479322b15b Which got me doing some research on this charity: https://ripmedicaldebt.org/ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rip-medical-debt-forgiving-medical-debt/ https://www.charitynavigator.org/ein/471442997 tldr - This charity uses debt collection practices to purchase medical debt for pennies on the dollar and then, instead of going after people for the amount of the debt, just cancels it. They also have the debt removed from the person's credit report. They claim to purchase $100 of debt for every $1 contributed. And the beneficiary receives a letter from the charity letting them know the debt has been canceled. What an amazing charity. As with a lot of things in life, I am always skeptical of charities. But this one and the V foundation both seem legit to me.

Another stupid post. If you don't want others to respond, send a PM dipsh1t. Otherwise, don't be surprised if others respond.
-
Not one person has suggested killing them all, or that this is simple. What a stupid post.
-
They could be doing much better absent Hamas. They receive massive amounts of money in aid that Hamas takes to build tunnels instead of bettering the conditions of the populace. Without seeing what Gaza would look like if that aid was used productively I cannot place blame on Israel.
-
This is probably true. You're just REALLY BAD at making an argument, and frequently wrong too.
-
Links to those specific allegations Melvin?
-
You're 100% right, but who is making those arguments HERE? You love to do this, to use what you see elsewhere to indict people on this bored who have never made those arguments. You did this crap at FBG's also. Remember all those times you got suspended for doing things and came back and said you were going to be better and then three months later you got suspended for doing the same things AGAIN? Well, you're doing it AGAIN. You're like that nerd from Wargames who's boss had to tell him he was being insensitive all the time. Melvin was his name IIRC. You're a Melvin.

I don't know. What does Roman Polanski molesting teenagers have to do with Elon Musk but for some reason it was mentioned in this thread. The world acts in mysterious ways Pedo defender.

This is indisputable. Even the Department of Education was forced to open investigations in to it: https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/16/politics/department-of-education-antisemitism-islamophobia-investigations/index.html

What a load of crap. There was no fear of dying except when they attacked Israel or defied their own duly elected government, in which case their own government killed them. If they didn't attack Israel there would be peace. Everything you mention is not happening, as a direct result of Hamas. So, if all these people needed were the things you mentioned above, they wouldn't support Hamas as they do. As usual, you're full of sh*t and simple facts and logic refute your weak a$$ argument.

I'd say TED talks but @The Real timschochetjjust found out what those were recently. Lol.
-
Come on man. Didn't read his posts? It's simple. "We need to try to change their minds." I'm sure we can take care of that with a couple of online zoom seminars broadcast to all of Gaza.

An Iranian backed terrorist group hijacked an Israeli ship today: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-11-19/israel-says-yemen-s-houthi-rebels-hijack-cargo-ship-in-red-sea I'm sure this will trigger prompt action from President Biden. He'll probably release another $10 billion to Iran.
-
Really???? This poll is from 11/14, five days ago. So in the last 5 days you acknowledged THIS poll? Did you even read the link I posted? I doubt it.
-
Funny how our resident anti-semite Hamas apologists like @The Real timschochet won't comment on this legit poll that shows most in Gaza support what happened to Israel. He'd rather keep his head in the sand and pretend Israel is killing innocent civilians.
-
Mike did that. Why dont you report it?
-
Link? I have NEVER made that claim.
-
Never once. I like you being here. I get to make you look like an idiot regularly. Why would I want that to go away?
-
Have you had your 12th Covid booster shot?
-
Sure, and you can start a thread if you want. It may get locked but you can start it. No one is getting banned AFAIK from this initiative. And, to be honest, I'm not really in favor of it. But the FBG's rejects/transplants and all the aliases are killing this place, which was already dying. You didn't answer my question from earlier. I'll ask again. You think this place hasn't been going downhill and doesn't need fixing?
-
Oh another alias. No, I responded to Tim's stated bet. He then CHANGED what he said he was offering. He's an idiot who can't keep his stories straight.
-
Oh look, another poosey. One that can't refute facts and gets suspended every other month. You're like the @The Real timschochet of the geek club. Now we just have two of you idiots.
-
You think this place hasn't been going downhill and doesn't need fixing? You're nuts.
-
Quit being a poosey. We used to rail on those who reported posts/users. Now you're reporting mods.

Why the fock wouldn't I? You say it like it's a pejorative, but who WOULDN'T want their kids to have privilege? What a lot of people don't acknowledge is that like many things in life "privilege" is a relative term. Compared to people who communicate by using "tok tok" sounds and walk around in loin cloths even the poorest black people in this country have "privilege."
