I spent 35 years in the media. I wouldn't give the Red Cross a dime... if I found one on the sidewalk.

Look a the record of the Red Cross after 9/11. They took in millions supposedly for 9/11 victims. But the 9/11 victims did not get hardly any money until some media types started getting on their case.

I would rather give money to other organizations that actually help people.. that don't require a media gun to their head before they actually stoop to help people.

The Red Cross, especially the parent organization.. The International Red Cross has become another HATE AMERICA FIRST organization. They put out the crap that we mistreat prisoners in both Cuba and Iraq.

The Red Cross was a good thing back in WWII.. But today I think it is hardly more than a rip off of suckers and a supporter of far leftist causes.

I have never met anyone who was helped by Red Cross. But I know hundreds who have given blood to RC.

Even in WWII, they failed the soldiers by charging them for donuts and coffee WHILE sucking up money from their parents/wives back in the states.
