-blam!- the poor?

[quote]A man walks the streets of London shouting #[b]F[/b]uckThePoor. Social experiment from poverty charity, The Pilion Trust, to see whether we really do care about those less fortunate.[/quote] Now if you didn't watch the video the man is holding a sign around himself saying "[b]f[/b]uck the poor", it stirs up some anger from pedestrians who are quick to challenge him. However after a while he switches the sign to "help the poor" to which he then hardly receives any attention. Now I understand people don't give to charity's because most of the money ends up being paid to the charity bosses but the point of this video is thought-provoking. I'm not asking you to donate all your money, just think about it. The video is a little unfair. On one hand, you have people standing up to an idiot and not putting up with offensive crap going on. On the other, you are asking people to give up their own money. Money that they have earned themselves and possibly have what they deem to be better uses for it. It's a little unfair to compare the two situations.  Good day.
