56. Can't stand Salvation Army!!!
Every city that I've lived in, they have done something to piss everyone off.

Many years ago in Indianapolis there was a SA Homeless shelter across the street from a restaurant and a straight bar. The restaurant was sold and made into a gay bar. The gay bar had a box for can goods and a jar for donations to SA.

Well, SA's response was to put a chapel in the homeless shelter and take the owners of the gay bar to court and try to close the bar because it was within so many feet of a church (Since the chapel made the shelter a church).

When the trial got to court the judge asked the SA why they didn't file a suit against the straight bar and the SA wouldn't answer that question. So the judge threw out the case and berated the SA throughly!!! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
