http://tiny.cc/NCUKSTCEA to donate direct to SaveTheChildren. Any annotations below:
On Saturday 28th July we went out to Warrington Town Centre to raise money for SaveTheChildren's East African appeal. Kids there face the worst hunger crisis in 60 years and SaveTheChildren are not only effective but efficient with how they use their money to help those in need. http://tiny.cc/STCreview for details of how reputable and transparent they are.
This is a direct follow up to our sharecraft campaign http://tiny.cc/NCUKsharecraft and our previous video about the campaign at http://youtu.be/V0qnla2WP6I

Nathaniel Mortazavi replied to Lore's discussion Condemning others to validate ourselves."Absolutely, I completely agree. The only way to solve the problem is to eliminate the cause.

You do bring up a good point about school shootings Nathaniel, in that the media makes…"
Nathaniel Mortazavi replied to Lore's discussion Condemning others to validate ourselves."I agree with the principle to an extent. However, in the case of school shooters, I don't think it can be justified. Same with rape. There's definitely a line, but like you said, those are the most extreme cases.
