I’ve stayed away from commenting or blogging about the crisis in Haiti
For a couple of reasons
Biggest reason?
As a mum, it’s breaking my heart
And I don’t know if it makes me a bad person
But I can’t watch the news coverage anymore
You donate what you can
And what else do you do?
I’m not a doctor, or a nurse
I can’t go over there and help in anyway
So, watching the non-stop story unfolding makes me feel helpless
And I don’t want to cry every time I see another child dying, or in pain
.
But I’ve been reading about a French politician (click here to read the story)
Who has been mouthing off running around bitching about the US troops and aid workers in Haiti
That the US has just come over to ‘occupy’ the country for it’s own benifit
OK?
Listen, you Froggy Fucktard
Geographically, common sense dictates that the US would be the first to arrive
They have the experience, the manpower, the money
Not to mention the ‘give a shit’ factor to get the job done
How about you take your ignorant arsehole-ish thoughts and ask the Haitian people what THEY think?
The ones whose lives have been saved
Seriously, fuck off back to France
And let the rest of the world do their job
Tommy Emmanuel has a very special auction of 3 of his favorite and much loved guitars happening on ebay to raise much needed funds for Haiti…Check it out!
My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Haiti and those who give their hearts and time to aid them!
