Yep
Wow what a waste. If Tim really cared about illegals he could have saved that money and donated it to charities that help illegals, along with the other hundred he has donated to those charities over the years. If he really cared that is......

So you only really care about an issue or a cause if you give money to it? I take it you give money to all the causes you believe in, right?It's really not. Notice Tim hasn't responded.

Is Dr Gobbler banned? It says it under his name, but his profile is still in tact and you can still click on his name. Usually when banned, doesn't your name next to a post become unclickable? Can we bring him back to continue to let him know what a deadbeat he is?

I didn't respond because it's stupid. I give lots of money each year to charity, and I donate to the ACLU, who fight for the undocumented. I have also participated in marches on behalf of the undocumented in Los Angeles. But who really cares about this ####? And suppose I hadn't done any of this; why would that matter either? You seem obsessed with trying to portray me as some sort of hypocrite. Whatever floats your boat, I guess.It's really not. Notice Tim hasn't responded.

YOU are the one who brought up how you had given "hundreds" of dollars to charities that support illegals. At the time you said you'd have given more but have budget constraints. Yet somehow you can afford to bet the same amounts over trivial things such as a gay person making an NFL team. If you don't want something brought up don't post it. You know, like how you think it's ok for people to ogle little girls if they dress a certain way. Don't want people bringing it up. Don't post it.

2. If you believe it's hypocritical for me to be concerned about budget constraints, yet also gamble for fun for my own entertainment, that's your opinion. I don't share it. My own entertainment is an important element of my life, and of everyone's life. I have high blood pressure and I have been encouraged by my doctors to seek out more enjoyment as means to relieve the stress. But even if that were not the case, I still wouldn't think that gambling is hypocritical in this regard.
3. I don't think a gay football player making the NFL is trivial.
4. I didn't bring up illegals in this thread, you did. I don't think it has anything to do with this thread.
5. I don't think it's OK for adults to ogle little girls. If you're referring to my unfortunate comments about Roman Polanski, for which I have apologized for, they had nothing to do with "ogling little girls." I also didn't bring up any of this stuff in this thread; you did.
Whenever I accuse you of having an obsession with me, you deny it. Yet that doesn't keep you from following me from thread to thread, trying to attack me and make me out to be a liar, a hypocrite, whatever. Surely there are threads more interesting for you to spend your time in?
I always laugh when people state that others follow them from thread to thread. What a joke. This is a freakin message board. You're bound to overlap threads with just about everyone. You won't find me in your chess threads, draft threads, or most others. Quite honestly, I'd be surprised if you could find me in more than 1% of the threads you create. So get off it.1.

BTW, if you have high blood pressure I'd think that some of the discussions you get in to around here are stress creators and not relievers. If that wasn't the case, you wouldn't have threatened to quit the bored on multiple occasions because you felt people were mean to you. So please, quit it.

You are out of bounds Strike. You could make that argument about anything. "If you really cared about (insert cause here) you would sell your house and give all the proceeds to them." "You should never eat anything but Ramen Noodles so you can give more to the cause." "You should sell your car and go to the junkyard and assemble a bike out of used parts so you can give more money." "Actually you should sell your car, build a free bike, sell it, and just walk everywhere."
Regardless of political persuasion and other differences, Tim has been consistent with paying off bets here (documented), and I believe he does contribute to organizations consistent with his beliefs (not documented, but I do believe him). If you thought that jumping on a guy a lot of people here get annoyed by (sorry Tim, not including myself in that) would somehow garner you some favor, you were wrong. I'd drop it.

He answered you. You either care or you don't. If you do, you got your answer. If you don't, move on. The circumstance isn't going to somehow change just because you don't deem it worthy of your attention.

The thing is , aster he refused to pay, he continued to post here and also mocked me about not paying. Because of that, I chose to bring it to people's attention. Otherwise I wouldn't have.

You have plenty of people coming to your defense - it's in your best interest to let it go. In particular, I would just ignore Strike.

youre right. I actually let the Gobbler thing go a long time ago. With Strike it's a little more difficult since he delights in doing this in a lot of threads. I do appreciate the people coming to my defense though.

I'm also blown away that there are charities that benefit illegal aliens and that people donate to them. Not only because they are breaking the law and enough of our tax dollars already go to them in various ways, but because there are causes like cancer and PTSD where people are truly suffering. But far be it from me to judge where someone donates, I'm just genuinely surprised.
timschochet
Footballguy
To be precise, it's not exactly a charity. I would like to see the laws changed with regard to illegals, so I give money to the ACLU which fights in their defense. That is not the only reason I give money to them. I have also donated money to fight cancer, and I actually raised $5,000 to fight brain cancer after my mother died.
When it comes to donations, I don't think it's a good idea to evaluate how people give money. Is it more moral to give money to fighting diseases than it is to give money to a museum or a school or a college sports team or to help Christian missionaries? I have my own priorities, but I don't expect others to share them.
