    another Katrina low life

    A church that wanted to do something special for Hurricane Katrina victims gave a $75,000 house, free and clear, to a couple who said they were left homeless by the storm. But the couple turned around and sold the place without ever moving in, and went back to New Orleans.

    "Take it up with God," an unrepentant Joshua Thompson told a TV reporter after it was learned that he and the woman he identified as his wife had flipped the home for $88,000.
    http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/...8LI0STG0.shtml

    I think that woman is a con-artist, and hope that she pays back the church. That money could have been used for a family that needed the house.

    Do you think it's ok for her to sell it, or not?

    Both deserve to be shot in public and then thrown into a dumpster IMO, both are a waste of oxygen, typical LA trash.

    If their new orleans house was destroyed and they used the money from this house to buy a new one back in new orleans I dont se what the fuss is about.

    If they never lost there house to begin with they are scum.

    Thats what insurance is for not charity, this house was given to them by a church, and these pricks sold it , it wasent the gov that gave it to them, they sold something that was givin to them out of the kindness of the churches hearts, then the scum bags said take it up with God !!!!!

    But the whole point of giving it was to give a family a new home to live in. Does it realy matter if that home is that place or a home in new orleans?

    If I give you a car and you sell it and buy a car that better suits you I would not be pissed...

    But I agree that they should not have accepted a home they dont want to live in. But if they realy lost there home in the hurricane than they atleast got a new home through that kind church right?

    There are many who have and are taking advantage of the whole katrina debackle, this is just one of many. They probably sold the home to buy a big screen TV, satelite dish, mobile phones, and 27" rims..........

    eh who gives a shit. they made 88 grand. but they have to live with looking like f*cking fools the rest of there lives.

    So is it a really big deal? no not really. theres a lot more scummier shit then people selling a house that got donated to them.

    and did u ever think of another side besides these people being scum? you all assume they just were doing it to make money. mabye they didnt like the house? ever think of that? mabye they couldnt afford to pay taxes on the house or pay all the bills like utilities and water, and things like that. theres a lot of different reason as to why people sell houses. not just to make a buck

    That is really sad in my opinion, the church members who were the ones who supplied all this money probably had to make a sacrifice in donating all so a shifty couple could make a profit pretty lame if you ask me.

    The reason why i think thry're full of shit is becuase they weren't up front about it afterwards..."You know, we couldn't afford the taxes, utilities, etc."...or something like that.

    "I didn't liek the neighborhood"...BUT SHE PICKED THE HOUSE OUT IN THAT AREA ALONG WITH THE CHURCH.

    I call bullshit.

    Yes, if you donated me a ferrari and I couldn't pay for the upkeep, I would sell it. But I was ever asked about it, I would be thankfull for the opportunity and honest about the fact that I couldn't afford to keep it. THEY WERE NOT.

    Another example...One of those Home and Garden TV givaways...A huge ****ing house to this small family (it was their deam house BTW)...They moved in...They realized a few months in that they couldn't afford the upkeep. They are putting it up for sale. They were approached by the media and were very honest about the problem (AND THANKFUL).

    Add that ****ing "married" couple to the rest of those shitheads buying xbox's with their prepaid (read: fLgAtOr paid) debit cards. ****em.

    Lets say I crash my car. The church gives me a 4x4. I sell it and buy a sedan. What's the problem? I still have a car and it serves the same function it was given to me for. Now if I sell the car, pocket the money and ride the bus every day. Yeah, that is shitty.'

    From what the news article is saying they sold the house to move back to New Orleans.

    Thats a 75,000 dollar house that could of housed a whole family, that would have appreciated it and had some gratitude, not sell it and make a profit, im sure there are familys that cant afford to pick up and move thats what the house was for, this was a church that im sure dosnt have dozens of houses to give away, and you really cant compare a car to a house.. In those conditions thats just not fair..

    that's why you don't gift things like that to people, you put it in a trust..

    "as long as they live there, they live rent free, if they leave, it reverts to the church"

    seems the church should have sought the opinion of an attorney

    The way I see it...

    They did not have a house. They were given a house to live in. They sold it and will use the money to buy a different house to live in. I don't see the problem. When a gift is given you can't dictate what someone does with the gift.

    I know a number of people here are students. How many of you have used student loans or grants to buy something not related to school? How many of you have used part of it to pay for a cycle, or new watch, or cloths?

    whats this world comin to, when some low life scum can milk a church willing to do good for those who need it? people like this should be tared and feathered.

    Im totally choked that this would happen, and the fact that they show no regret. they obviously didnt need the money, they were just out to leach off the good nature of the church... thats sickening, god will not forget, they will burn in a lake of fire!!! with lil devil deamons stufin red hot pitchforks up their arses!

    ya, see that white scholarship program that was being called racist on tv? ha, I laughed, so wot, it was like 250 bucks. big deal. even still, not to sound bias, but there are are black scholarship programs out there, the reason being, is that there are needy poor black familys who honestly could use it. I agree with this... but there are white families in the same boat!

    but I dont care, I never had a scholarship, I worked for everything I have and to get where I got!

    anyway, screw race related scholarship programs, people all want to be treated equally, why not get rid of the race requirements on them all...

    Since this thread got off topic..

    There are thousands of scholarships available. Sometimes you have to look for them though. You would be amazed how many people are willing to give away a few hundred bucks just for writting an essay.
