Isn't that the height of generousity for a multi-billion dollar company, whose net worth is more that the entire GDP of Belgium?

They donated a million dollars three days ago -- which is a drop in the bucket, but three days ago it didn't seem to be as bad as it has turned out to be.
They also have decided to just let looters loot. One of Wal-Mart's suits said that as far as they were concerned, the first priority was public safety, rescue, and health.
Give the devil his due, but this is more than many other business organizations have done.

They donated all the looted items and 1 million dollars.
When the animals stop looting VCRs from their stores then they might give more, until then I wouldn't if I were them.

What exactly makes them animals? I can see calling them thieves, but don't you think you and Rush could come up with a better term then animals.
I'm sorry that would actually require an imagination, wouldn't it?
