Whoa! Is the Commish smarmy! If he decides to quit SA, he has a future in used car sales. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

How badly do you think he wanted to say "happy holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" at the end of his little empty apology | |||

Not all of the bell-ringers are volunteers in the true sense of the word. Some are doing it for community service. http://www.use-salvationarmy.o...rviceApplication.pdf | |||

My nephew did community service for the SA a few years back as a driver helper. Very common. He shared some good stories about charitable home pickups and the items that drivers would keep for themselves and throw up on E-bay/Craigs list. | |||

The call for a sincere apology from whites: Along with coins this Christmas, Salvation Army wants white donors to offer a "sincere apology" for their racism The Salvation Army's Alexandria-based leadership has created an "International Social Justice Commission" which has developed and released a "resource" to educate its white donors, volunteers and employees called Let's Talk about Racism. It asserts Christianity is institutionally racist, calling for white Christians to repent and offer "a sincere apology" to blacks for being "antagonistic.. to black people or the culture, values and interests of the black community." Article from OP The mea culpa: "...and we’re not asking anyone to apologize for the color of their skin.” "...racism is totally incompatible with Christianity.” Sounded to me like he was trying to be all inclusive. First he apologizes for the Salvation Army calling for “a sincere apology” from whites. Then he admonishes white Christians for being racist. These sort of people that play patty cake with BLM in no way believe racism can come from anyone other than whites. “We’re in a situation where we have put together, and you guys did it for our administration…President Obama’s administration before this. We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics,” Pres.

Bell Ringers doing it as court ordered Community Service? Well, that explains why most of the bell ringers I saw looked like derelicts and thugs. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

Oh, that makes sense. I saw an SA bell ringer just before Christmas. He was wearing a jacket- a suit jacket, with no shirt underneath it. I asked him if he wanted my apology. He just smiled and said "Hey, man, I'm just hear because..." and I couldn't hear the last part because of all the noise- bell-ringing, clashing shopping carts, kids screaming. Yep. Well, he was polite when I was being rude, so... ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

What’s truly sad is that the woke crowd at SA will still make their money, salary or stipends, but the people that really needed the help will suffer, because of bullshit, liberal, woke nonsense. That is the saddest part of all of it. | |||

”Everything the Left touches, it ruins.” - Dennis Prager Side note…the entire Salem Radio Network (Hewitt, Gallagher, Prager, Gorka, and Elder) used to host their Red Kettle Campaign for the SA every year during the Christmas season. I’m sure they’ve pulled in MILLION$ through the years. Not this year, though! Their charity campaign focus is now Angel Tree…helping kids who have one or both parents that are incarcerated. Go Woke, Go Broke! "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

I should have just researched the question myself rather than raising the question here. From the Philanthropy Network site: “Giving USA 2021: In a year of unprecedented events and challenges, charitable giving reached a record $471.44 billion in 2020” “‘… 2020 is the highest year of charitable giving on record,’ said Laura MacDonald, CFRE, chair of Giving USA Foundation and Principal and Founder of Benefactor Group.” https://philanthropynetwork.or...reached-record-47144 There is less information about giving levels in 2021, but one report: https://www.fidelitycharitable...2021-and-beyond.html ► 6.4/93.6 ___________ “We are Americans …. Together we have resisted the trap of appeasement, cynicism, and isolation that gives temptation to tyrants.” — George H. W. Bush | |||
