Nice to see that there are still a lot of caring and sharing people in the world. I was very disapointed to read some of the **** that you guys had written. Some of you have forgotten that you DO receive help from other countries. If I recall correctly, Australia has sent troops to assist in places like Afghanistan, Iraq, and Somalia, Vietnam, etc etc. Not to mention New Zealand and other countries as well.

Dont get me wrong, I understand that there are people around in this world that would rather see any westerner dead, and wouldnt even **** on us if we were on fire, but to stereo type everyone, and say that they can get f@#ked, seems to be a bit ignorant on your part. Kinda like me sitting here thinking that everyone on this forum is a brain dead, inbread, red neck hill billy. We all know that's not the case.

I just hope that some of you will eventually understand that by sitting and doing nothing, you are playing into the hands of people who call you guys evil bastards.

Anyway, I applaud Larry for his intentions, just a shame that there aren't more people around like him.
