I volunteer once in a while for an organization called Boatsie's Boxes. We collect donations of money and items like shampoo, bug spray, sunblock, letters from students and citizens, etc and send them to you guys. My questions has to do with a very nasty response I received from someone on the Yahoo! News message boards a while back. I do not support this war, but I feel that my opinion about the war is moot because my thoughts are with the soldiers that are over there and that's why I volunteer. This person told me that he has a son over in Iraq and if he knew that these items were coming from 'someone like me' that he and his fellow soldiers would take those items and throw them in the trash. Is this how you feel as well? Even knowing that my intentions are to hopefully make you feel a little better, letting you know that we are thinking about you, by sending you these things?
