Briggsy Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I read the headline from this story but I didn't read it as I knew it would depress me. I empathised with all the care and hard work the enthusiasts had put in. Did they catch the people who did it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonlighter19 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Don't be so toxic. The guy already donated and that's more than what I could give based on my financial status. This will always be better than receiving nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
