"It is with great sadness that we have to cancel the Chicago Musicians Care Performance & Benefit event ... due to low ticket sales," read a Facebook post from organizer Chicago Musicians Care, which was created in response to the shooting.

Trayvon Martin is the saint and cause ... not Sandy Hook.
“NO ONE believes it was the tragedy it was purorted to be.”
How many people have to die for something to qualify as a tragedy in your book? Or are you one of those utter lunatics who thinks nobody died?
“Men by their constitutions are naturally divided into two parties: 1. Those who fear and distrust the people, and wish to draw all powers from them into the hands of the higher classes. 2. Those who identify themselves with the people, have confidence in them, cherish and consider them as the most honest and safe, although not the most wise depositary of the public interests.” - Thomas Jefferson
I think most on a gut level question this whole thing.
Dang. Did I miss a concert benefiting trayboyeeee’z mom and dad? Or was it to buy al not so sharpton a new caddie. (Can’t believe you wasted capital letters on tm’s name. LOL!)
"Suppose we gave a tragedy and no one cared?"
The Obama Regime tried real hard to gin up Sandy Hook into overthrowing the 2nd. Didn't work. Its too bad the murder of little children was turned into a loonie liberal festival, but that's what happened.
There are two things at work here, one the latest “tragedy” is not evoking any sense of we need to ban all guns like the promotors would love to see happen, after they take their cuts.
Second, the number of fundraisers over the past few years has gone ballistic. I notice that while trying to schedule events for my service club. Every group in the country now has benefits. Frankly, merchants want to lock their doors when they see us coming looking for sponsorships citing gee, you are the “X number of groups in here in the past month”. Larger donors are spreading around their limited funds over a much larger universe. Same for those who support by attending by buying tickets or attending auctions. There is a reason there is one supermarket per x number of people: over saturation if that number is exceeded.
no it is not. anyone who spends just an hour or two watching robbie parmer, the.ME, gene rosen, the “nurse” or the parents knows it smells to high heaven

“I’m reading out loud the newspapers, not describing my psychology”
Hmm, what newspaper says this wasn’t a tragedy?
“How many people have to be shut up before you stop calling them an asshole ?”
Well, all of them who come around FR and pollute it with insane Alex Jones Sandy Hook conspiracies. I’d be satisfied at that point.
If they promise to show the ACTUAL (if any actually exists or EVER existed!!) security footage both outside and inside the school during the “shooting??” I’ll buy a 100 tickets!
With the Left, everything is either a “tragedy” or an “outrage.”
I stopped paying attention to them a long time ago, and I’m a much happier person for it.
It’s a sham. The proceeds are supposed to go to first responders and teachers who are dealing with mental health issues from the tragedy. What a crock! I should think they all have some kind of mental health coverage in their health care insurance.
Personally, I think the money would have gone to the unions.
Maybe they should have raffled off an AR with ticket sales ?
2005???? You’re just a newbie who apparently likes to shut people up. Why be here then?
Something sure smells when these Sandy Hook threads come up. The scent is a bit like roasted nuts.
No Illinois resident could legally claim it, right?
