you think you see 'the truth' ?

Just because I have exposed all those shameless, hollow infidels who ease their own shallow conscience by posting a throwaway tribute message onto a web forum - avoiding all the hard physical contributions necessary to carry out a relief effort - is no reason for you to get pissy.
Go back to the raindrops on roses in your cyber-pub and leave the no-BS "telling it like it is" attitude to a genuine person.

Yes - forget the Holocaust, Chinese infant massacres, IRA attacks, ETA attacks, Russian school terrorists, global genocides, the recent Asian tsunami, Indian earthquakes and Lord knows what else....that's all irrelevant. Anything that happens on American soil must take precedence over all the other 'inferior' nations.
The agony isn't over yet. I hope you're all prepared for the inevitable onslaught of tribute concerts, DVD specials, collectable newspapers and magazines, benefit gigs, movie remakes and public events that will soon be all over the place. I'll be sure to pre-order my 'Help Rebuild New Orleans' rubber bracelet when it comes out.
America is notorious for this, and it is starting to leave a bad taste in other people's mouths...especially mine.
And no, I am not flaming, trolling or causing trouble. Just offering a fresh perspective on the cookie-cutter "My heart goes out to these people" shallow threads.

...it takes precedent because we are all IN America....are you daring to suggest that other countries take an even interest in American disasters/news as they do in their own Countries, their own backyards? I mean you even posted your gripe in the U.S forum..why cos people in the other countries probably wouldn't have bothered to read past the first paragraph 
Of course if we start seeing Pam Anderson on Larry king again I'll scream!!

I thought he had a good point at the beginning. I mean the news media does go OTT with all their ridiculous reporting....or was I getting the wrong point?

Oh you ARE the truth.... LMAO. I've never been in a cyber pub- you must have confused me with someone else. But I have been in the aftermaths of nasty hurricanes- helping. Have you? Nahhh thought not.
Where did this clown come from??

Once again, if my house and family were lost, and some dick told me "his heart went out to me" from his safe, warm house in New Mexico, you can bet I would be offended.
I bet you lot also cried over Diana's death didn't you? A woman you never knew, a person you never met. Yet I bet you all watched the funeral on TV, shedding crocodile tears and immersing yourself in fake self-gratifying grief.
The best part of all is how not one of you has been able to refute my comments and so resort to safety measures like "Oh God its him again" and "Go away troll". I am the truth and the reflection of your rotten souls...deal with it. You can't argue because you know it's true, so you resort to petty insults. Shame.
