agree

Plus, the conservatives give not only TO their churches but THROUGH their church affiliations.

Yes, church run food pantries are sometimes run by conservatives and have conservative volunteers.

501(c)3's in human services struggle mightily to fill their volunteer roles with some demographic other than liberal white women, and it's an uphill battle. I think men volunteer in numbers for things like Habitat for Humanity, where strength and building know-how is useful, but by and large nonprofits have overwhelmingly white liberal female representation.

I'm working with a grant foundation for nonprofits, so I'm confident in what I'm saying. And don't even let's get started on Big Brothers Big Sisters or CASA, both who do happy dances when any volunteer walks through the door that isn't a liberal white woman.

But yes, as always, there is a little diversity in any grouping of people.

Yeah...theres that. I mean...seriously!? I'm sure there has to be a needy family out there that would have been willing to put politics aside so their children didnt go hungry.

Truly, typical leftist lunacy. That makes as much sense as shooting your horse because she saw the coyote that killed your chickens.

I guess I'm just not "woke" enough to understand that pattern of thought. It takes a college degree to wrap your head around that.

I remember reading that moms who work outside the home devote more hours to volunteering than any other group. Interesting as we're probably busier than anyone yet still make the time to give back.

I have two college degrees and I still can't wrap my head around leftist thinking. I must not have taken the correct courses.

BS. So...just because Trump wants to secure the border and do something about illegal immigration, in your mind that amounts to him being "the most anti-Latino president in the history of our country".

Get a grip. Stop assuming that all illegal aliens are Latinos. By assuming that, it shows you to be racist and bigoted. Let me educate you. In the past, ICE deported illegals back to 189 countries. 189 countries covers every race, religion and ethnicity. There is no such race as "Latino". Nor is their a "brown" race. Nor is their an "illegal alien race".

For you to say Trump is the "most anti-Latino president in the history of our country" shows you don't know US history. Eisenhower deported millions of Mexicans after the Korean War and called it "Operation W**back". And you say Trump is the worst. SMH.

Nah, a degree isn't helping.

This shows the mentality of loons on the left who are so punitive and mean-spirited that they think it's okay to waste food because someone said something that wasn't in line with their ideology. Oddly enough, they also feel this is adult behavior, so they're not even embarrassed enough to keep quiet about their immature emotional reaction.

Think about that. It's like some child who throws his cleats, bat and mitt in the garbage because he said his father was the best dad in the world and each of his teammates said their father was.

There aren't enough shrinks in the world.....

Exactly! He threw away all his Goya products which was very selfish and wasteful, considering that food banks are begging for donations.
