During the 2011 Act 10 protests in Madison people were sending pizzas to those who occupied the Capitol (peacefully I might add) and it was cool to see. Much appreciated too!

It would be nice if the DU community could overwhelm them with cash kindness.

Recommending a post is good, but does not move it closer to the top. The default forum setting is that the message with the most recent reply moves to the top, so if you reply even with just a K&R, the message will go back to the top of the list.

Only one asshole "friend" asked if it was for real and then said "don't the troops get fed?" I told him I sent him the link by mistake (clearly) and to forget it!!!

Everyone else is into it and sending it to their peeps!!!
