http://www.petitiononline.com/MPH2015/petition.html

That's why we have stagedLIVE 8.

10 concerts, 100+ artists, a million spectators, 3 billion viewers, and 1 message... To get those 8 men, in that 1 room, to stop 30,000 children dying every single day of extreme poverty.

We don't want your money - we want you!

It won't. Where's the petition to dispose of Africa's corrupt leaders, which have stolen tens of billions of dollars ? I'll sign that one.

double the aid sent to the world's poorest countries,
fully cancel their debts,
change the trade laws so that they can build their own future.

That is what the petition is for

Listen whiner.

Your last two posts have been 100% about me. Stop stalking me.

No, I am not gay, and I am certainly not interested in you.

Check out the word hypocrite in the dictionary.

My statement to you was merely a reply to your Wow, how very ignorant of you statement.

People don't want to get called names ? Then don't call anybody else names. That seems like a fairly simple concept to comprehend.

Yes, if a problem cannot be solved by disposing someone, well, then it just isn't our problem.


Good to see you again, its been awhile
-"I don't believe in God. "
"That doesn't matter. He believes in you."

-"I'm not agnostic. Just nonpartisan. Theological Switzerland, that's me."
