Won't Somebody PLEASE Think Of The Children?!

ATTENTION, GAMERS!

Do you ever raise yourself up from your Satanic orgies of depravity game nights and say to yourself, “I have decided that it is time to taint more people with my diseased immorality and hellish madness, not to mention my occult black magic of heathen paganism! Perhaps I will send a large pile of my ill-gotten devil-cursed money to an unsuspecting charity organization for starving children!”

Well, you can’t! We’re on to your little game!

Some of the more vigilant organizations, like oh say Gary Gygax’s favorite charity, will not accept any sort of $17,000 donation that may have had anything to do with any soul-blackening RPGs. Thank god we’ve got vigilant people out there with children’s best interest at heart! They may not have food or clear running water, but by god their souls will be pure so they can go to heaven when they starve to death! On behalf of all starving children everywhere, I tip my hat to the good work of the Christian Children’s Fund.

Fleury said most of the rejected children didn’t appear upset. Rather, many walked away chanting Obama’s name, she said.

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA AND SO SHE TURNED THEM TO THE LIGHT!

Next thing ya know they'll be gamers.

I wrote a letter to the charity in question. I'll be picking another kid's charity to donate to once the boy and I aren't unemployed.

That's so sad. Especially since it was Gygax's favorite charity and he donated to them over the years and doubtless some of that money from D&D stuff, and NOW they're saying it is evil and they won't accept the money. Like it would've been nice if he'd known and could've found a D&D friendly charity THEN. Terrible.

I loved the nice neighbors in that news report, the McCain lady is so mean and the Obama guy so cheerful, it's like "Obama supports peace and candy for all children!"

This is why I donate to Child's Play. Showing that Gamers care and do make a difference for...crap, I don't know, several years now.

The McCain story had me reeling. I wonder if she was worried about her house being teepeed or eggs chucked into her mailbox by irate Obama-loving kids?

I got a response to my email about the charity kerfluffle. I've posted it here.
