I just read the 2nd article in 2 days of donated Christmas presents being stolen.

THe most recent happened in Denton, TX (n. of Dallas) and will effect about 2,200 children who were part of a Salvation Army Angel Tree. Things were in a warehouse and included high end electronics, barbie toys, and clothes.

I also read about one in the Chicago area where donated toys were to go to children in 3 local hospitals.

This just breaks my heart. I know there are a lot of good, caring, and giving people out there, but the scum who do things like this really make me lose faith in humanity and the kind of people we have in this country...

One year a teacher at my mom's school had her house broken into a week or so before Christmas. The thief stole all their Christmas presents, including 10 presents they had wrapped to give to a shelter for homeless kids. :(

I personally believe in karma, so I am confident these scumbuckets who steal Christmas presents from poor children will get theirs in the end...
