BREA, Calif., Dec. 17 (UPI) -- A Southern California man says he took on city hall and the federal government to exile Salvation Army bell ringers from his local post office.

Sean Thomas, 65, of Brea told The Orange County (Calif.) Register it just wasn't right to have a religious organization raising money at a government building.

So because this man doesn't like Christians and believes the Salvation Army is anti gay, he gets to directly tell hundreds of the poor, homeless, and needy f@ck you.
It doesn't matter that the Salvation Army provides services to ANYBODY in need irregardless of race, social class or sexual orientation.
I'll say this now, Americans are getting too damned selfish and prideful, if we treated each other this way during the depression, the world wars, and for some during slavery, this country would be far less than it is today.
I thank God everyday as I get older that I was born poor, it taught me to care for something and someone else besides myself.
Sometimes life throws a curve ball, many on the top today are seeing a side of life they could only have nightmares about, hopefully some of them will learn a little compassion and humility.

I won't take that bet because I'd lose....I bet

These are exactly the left wing buttholes that give good dems a bad name...WHY OH WHY didn't the republicans pander to them so they could be blessed with ALL of the extremist idiots rather than just the majority of them.

Hey look....1800 posts and I've yet to say anything worth posting!!! Yay for me

This guy is clearly a famewh*re. Atheist? Liberal? No, nothing but a Famewh*re.

I hope all of his friends, co-workers and neighbors shun him for being such a tool.
