That's just something President Bush made up so that he could wage war on us and so that Americans wouldn't have to take the blame for 9/11. Spread this message and god (Allah) will bless you forever. And I mean it! When I live in Canada, remind me NEVER to celebrate Black Friday

PS- Muslims are NOT terrorists. That’s just something President Bush made up so that he could wage war on us and so that Americans wouldn’t have to take the blame for 9/11. Spread this message and god (Allah) will bless you forever.

And I mean it!

Thank you for all the work you are doing. I will personally do whatever I can to spread the message whenever and wherever I can.

Sad to hear this unbeliveable story. My condolences to his family. Here in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, mostly of the people have the same comsumption pattern. We buy a lot of and the same sort of stuff, due to the simple fact that we have the same multinational corporations dictating the rules here (of course, we have a lot of poor people here in Brazil, with less money to buy at the same rate). But nothing compares to this agressive comsumption behavior (yet). That's insane. Annie, you're doind a great job. Don't give up. Annie, it’s really a pleasure writing this post here, in your site.

I got even more shocked when I read your detailed blog post about it. (Luckily) I just CAN'T imagine 2000 people in front of a mall, waiting for some stupid sale. If it were to get some scarce good during hard times I could understand, but this? What a crazy world we live in. We need to question ourselves who we are and what we want out of our lives. Buying that Wii for our children wouldn't make us a good parent, isn't it? I was shocked when I heard this news a month ago. I got even more shocked when I read your detailed blog post about it.

We avoided clothing because our children seemed to wear only what was STYLISH. When we sat at a gift opening my wife and I were totaly shocked at the number of gifts, useless trash that would sit on shelf for years and then given up for a garage sale. That is why we have entered the era of ENDESS GARAGE SALES. We at a few years back gave Christmas gifts, that were useful….some thing you could eat, or use frequently.
