These are not my demands, these are my prayers. Presumptuous? ...possibly, I am not here to pass judgement but if the same were to happen to me then I would donate it without a blink. Also I feel that natural disasters, while the majority are localized, do not belong to the nation of their happening - they belong to all of us. We are all on Spaceship Earth and we are all humans. When I peronally give donations I do not consider it an 'imposition', so why should campaigning others to follow suit be considered as such? You can downvote me all you like but I personally think the world would be better if everyone were more generous, and I will stand by my view.
- euccastro 16y agoIf natural disasters belong to all of us, should this particular photographer be more generous than other people with some dough to spare? Wealthy people are mentioned all the time on HN. What prompted you to state your prayers in this case?

- RevRal 16y agoYour comment confronts this one individual with a lot of undue and unbalanced pressure and responsibility that he really has no reason to be accountable for. And the downvotes aren't affronting the view that the world would be better if everyone were more generous.
