6. If I said what I was thinking I'd get TS'd

That is a mean, cruel, not just uncaring but malicious thing to say about a bunch of people who are suffering the loss of friends, family and everything they own and know. Most are poor or working class, none has done a thing to you, and frankly no matter who they are they are in agony today and if we believe ourselves to be in favor of helping others we don’t pick and choose who among the ordinary folks we help.
