Reply to comment by Archmage_of_Detroit in Colorado will launch its new Missing Indigenous Person Alert program on Friday by AudibleNod
You're being fed a line that is making people pit against each other. It's being sold as a comforting inclusive thing, but the important thing is people. People. The more we separate helping people in a way different than others....even for these comforting reasons, the end result is an us against them mentality perpetuation. We are being bluffed into thinking this is all for good reasons. We now live in a world where it's offensive to just help people regardless of who they are just because they need help no matter what they happen to be. Soon we'll have 50 different kind of alerts. Don't you see that splitting people into categories is a bad thing. Helping should be helping no matter what you happen to be. Sad that people will see this comment as offensive.

Can't we just issue a missing person alert? Makes no sense slicing and dicing into races/issues/other things that don't matter when A PERSON IS MISSING. Isn't that what's important?

Reply to Woman sentenced to three years in state prison for collecting $400,000 in viral GoFundMe scam by AudibleNod
So she's basically earning $133 grand a year for 3 years off in taxpayer funded food and shelter program. Not a bad trade-off.
