Logan’s Walker
(Tom: 75-80% of us are good people trying to get along and do well for ourselves and others. It pays to remind ourselves of this amidst all the insanity perpetrated by the loonies.)
Today a lady and her mother and husband came in to our Home Depot telling us that the insurance company may or may not pay for their little boy’s walker, so they went on the internet and found plans to make one out of PVC pipe.
My store manager heard about this and we went over to them looked at their plans and said, “We got this.”
So, we started putting it together told the family to go and enjoy ice cream and come back in an hour.
Other associates started jumping in and when the family came back it was done. Everyone was crying to see Logan walk around with the biggest smile on his face.
When the family tried to pay us, we said, “No way this one is on us.”
Thanks to all that help and for being a blessing to this family and to this little guy.

I want to introduce you to the Justice Defense Fund.
Justice Defense Fund: Civil litigation and legislation to bring justice to survivors of sex trafficking and child sexual abuse.
New York Times “Why Do We Let Corporations Profit From Rape Videos?” https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/16/opinion/sunday/companies-online-rape-videos.html
On Friday, two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nicholas Kristof of the New York Times (who in December sent shockwaves across the world with his expose on Pornhub) published yet another scathing investigative piece shining a light on the mass sex crimes being monetized and globally distributed on the world’s largest porn sites. This time the target was Pornhub’s most prominent rival, Xvideos, the seventh most visited website in the world ahead of Netflix, Yahoo, and Amazon.
I could not think of a more fitting way for the new organization that I have founded called the Justice Defense Fund to be introduced to the world than to be quoted in Kristof’s powerful article.
In this hard-hitting piece, the New York Times exposed in vivid and heartbreaking detail, the life-long trauma faced by survivors of filmed trafficking, child sexual abuse, and rape. In doing so, Kristof highlighted the very reason the Justice Defense Fund now exists. I created the Justice Defense Fund to empower survivors of these horrific crimes to pursue justice against large-scale exploiters like Pornhub, Xvideos, and others, by helping them bring lawsuits against their abusers. We also advocate for laws that will prevent these abuses from happening in the first place.
As I continue to lead the charge of the global Traffickinghub movement to hold Pornhub accountable for enabling and profiting from mass sex crimes, I am excited to simultaneously be launching this new initiative!
Please take a moment to read the latest New York Times article here https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/16/opinion/sunday/companies-online-rape-videos.html and consider supporting the mission of the Justice Defense Fund so that survivors of these crimes can be empowered to pursue justice: www.justicedefensefund.org

I recall reading that before COVID, iatragenic illness was the third leading cause of death in the USA. Looks like that will change considerably. If counted honestly. And there is zero guarantee of that!
