Nevermind Jessica.
You obviously missed the point and decided to start pointing fingers.

No. I believe that's what you did.
I don't owe anyone anything in this. So I'm not going to look like the bad guy becuase I didn't do something.
I offered support in my own way.
So by me not posting a link doesn't make me a bad person and not offering support.
Haven't you ever heard of the good samaritan clause?
It's the theory that everyone will expect everyone else to do something.
Meaning if you see someone fall, you tend to keep walking because you figure someone else will help them.
Hence, why I don't understand why I'm the bad person because I didn't do one thing that several other people did.
My friends who don't know Sarah are pretty poor too. And they really aren't the type to give money to a cause for someone they don't even know.
I know that sucks. But that's true with a lot of people.
Did you ever think why they push the " Your vote counts. " saying?
It's because everyone figures the other person will do it and they don't have to.
So I supported her in a way that I felt was more personal.
I fucking called her in Erie. I offered her my condolances. I told her I thought it sucked and that I was there for her.
So you know what?
I'm done.
I don't owe anyone anything.
Call me selfish all the hell you'd like. But in the end. No one else is going to be there to pick me up when I fall, except for me.
