I do not give a rats ass about the 120,000 people who died because none of them were me, my famiily, or my friends.

I do not care who gives how much for the relief, because I am fine and I do not need the medical care and economic relief

I do not care if Bush somehow caused the disaster. It is absurd to even think a mortal person could have caused or prevented something of this magnitude.

I do not care what the UN says about anything, especially dealing with this incident. The UN cannot do anything, so who should I care what they say or pledge.

Well about the first two it is absurd to say that you do not care cause if you didn't you wouldn't be stating it. But if you do not care you are a terrible human being and should be wipe off the face of the Earth. That comes from grumpy man on top of that.

And if I ever come across someone dying in pain on the street, I'll hope that he's you and kick a Pepsi can toward him.

If this isn't flamebait, then I will say this: If you ever need assistance of any kind, I hope you don't get any. In fact, I hope you die by somebody castrating you and sticking needles in your eyeballs. An added case of ebola virus would be good, too.

well you are a slef loaveing (sp) ass hole. you say its not you but 120,000 other people have to. if you cant respect them then you have major problums and i would never want to meet you in RL because i would have to kick your ass.

Also did you say the samething about the people in the WTC on 9/11? just think about who has been effected by this before trampaling on about how you are the most important person in the world. you need to show some respect to the 120,000 people who have died in the tsunami

Sir, you are indeed a horrible person. I am amazed. No, I am stupified. You sir are an ignorant troll, and I am going to send this thread to the mods to get it off this site. For all you know, there may be posters here who lost loved ones in that horrible incident.

You may not be willing to help others, but I am. Hopefully, when you are suffering, you someone with a shred of human decency comes your way, and not a douchebag like yourself.

You're seriously a jerk and an ignoramous for not caring about other ppl. You have no morality, don't you? Wouldn't it be sad if you got involved in something like this and nobody cared because you're not part of "their life?"

Well, if thats your opinion, it is what it is. You are entitled to it but I don't think it is a great idea to advertise it.
But remember, you reap what you sow.
One day you or your family may need help or assistance.
And you will only have to hope that someone with a better attitude than you comes along.

Well, he just doesn't care. :D

Sometimes when it's so far away, it lacks reality. It's like playing computer game where you shoot someone, it's just another person. Not thinking whether he has a family, kids, friends.

Perhaps dillusional or ignorant of the fact that their all real people who've lost their homes and family. No clean water to drink, no dry clothes, no money, no food, nothing. Even their own government can't support them. Not like any rich nations like US, Europe, Australia etc.

A lack of empathy I might add. Correction... none. :p

Funny article though, lol.

People: Don't believe what this guy is saying right off the bat. He most likely just started this to get the attention. Any flamebait is good for attention whoring. Is he is serious, well then, I seriously pity this poor pathetic man. It sucks that his daddy didn't love him enough.

It is a shame that people don't care as much for others in this world as we would like.

It is a shame that people have to die so horribly.

It is a shame that the energy spent having anger and hate towards others couldn't be spent helping others and enjoying the short life we have.

There is a lot of shame in the world.

Instead of wishing this individual harm, wish him well; otherwise you are revealing your ability to have a lack of compassion, as well.

You are truely selfish and ignorant. I can't believe someone would say this when children are crying, families can't reunite, millions are without homes, diseases are spreading, many more then 120,000 will surely pass, and southern Asia is in ruins. This earthquake was about as powerful as 10,000 atomic bombs or 1,000,000 to those dropped on Hiroshima. If you cannot understand this, you are truely dumb. You deserve, as so many have said before me, to be wiped off the earth.

maybe he's just a troll, or maybe it's a provocation about the real thoughts of many people which do not admit that openly, but unfortunately think like that.
In the first case insulting him is at least a waste of time, in the second we should admit that lot of people do really think that (even if not in such an extreme form)

Well, i must say. You are an insensitive bastard if you believe that you shouldnt feel for those people lost in the Tsunami disaster.

This is what seperates Australians from pricks like you, we all believe that everyone else is our mate until they show us otherwise. In that disaster, where children and women died needlessly, and you have no empathy for their position, it seperates moral and decent humans from low life, satan worshipping, chicking ®aping stooges like you.

If the world came together and was united, without interference from the corrupted US Government, it would be a much better place. If you think that you are the only people on this earth and that, thank god, its never happened to you, I pity you much more than any other people on this earth, for it is you that is hated by the rest of the world.

Looks like the flamebait hooks another looser. Someone throws out a fairly lame troll post and up jumps Decus, desperately eager to show his/her 'superiority'.

And what do you actually demonstrate??

Nationalism.
Religiosity.
Hatred.
Simple-mindedness.

Indeed, the latter quality is depressingly evident (along with naivete) in many of the posts that this troller harvested. To address the aspects, if not the degree, of simple-mindedness in this single post:

1) All people die. Certainly some died early as a result of the tsunami, and some died more cruelly than they otherwise might have, but it's not like they were going to live forever. We can still mourn, but our care is for the living.

c) Whatever one FEELS for the dead or the survivors affects them not one f-ing bit. One might even say that an excessive display of 'caring' shows someone USING the tragedy to make themselves appear better. Pretty exploitative, actually. If you want to do something for them, good on ya. But I don't need to hear about how great you are for doing it, much less how great you are for FEELING bad about the tragedy.

XI) You desire for a simplistic explanation of the world's ills (it's the US's fault!) marks you as the type of person who is easily lead by demagogues. Pathetic. By your logic (USA causes all disharmony), the world was a beautiful, pacific place prior to the last 50+ years. Maybe if you read a book sometime, you'll get a better idea of how humans in groups treat each other. (Then again, you can probably carefully select only books that tell you your 'theory' is right.)

1) "Hated by everybody" eh? Well, it's not like there's any rule that says 'Hate makes right." If you feel that there's such a thing as 'good hate', somehow differentiated from 'bad hate' by some obvious and easily-agreed-upon principle, let me introduce you to the guys from the Spanish Inqusition, or the Third Reich for that matter. They felt that way too.

I like how people can say, essentially, "You're a bad person, and if I met you I'd be a bad person to you because you're a bad person!"

Saying 'you deserve to die' or 'I hope something awful happens to you' in reaction to people like this doesn't put you on some moral high ground - it makes you look just as bad.

The correct reaction is something more along the lines of 'o.O' or Goed Twee's post.

Hahahah, that's cold :D

Anyways, stating that one doesn't give a shit would be a little much, but seriously, to be honest, I'd rather have 400,000 people dying on the other end of the world than the death of one of my best friends.

So many people dying in such a way is bad, but forcing compassion down the throat of others and saying that they're a bad person and should die in a horrible way too if they don't feel that compassion isn't much better at all.

Compassion is a natural part of what it is to be human. This is why most of us feel the need to help our fellow man when he is in trouble. I hope that when you are suffering such a compassionate person helps you.

Those who cannot feel compassion are called "psychopaths".

That's a difficult one, but thankfully none of us will ever have to choose. But with the 400,000 people dying on the other end of the world, millions of people will experience the grief that you or I would at the death of a friend.
