Gentlemen,

There has been some talk about members here who may be in financial trouble due to the recent storm that hit the Punta Gorda area.

Do you guys think we ned to pass the hat to help our brothers out?

Sound off here or email/im me....I'd like to help.


Edited to add:
Well, it seems that Aim4MyHead is being well cared for in his time of need   ....I just ordered a Walmart gift card for him.....if interested, you can read the thread here:

Any of you guys down in that area, post some things that are needed. I remember what things were like down in Homestead/Miami after Andrew, so if the needs are similar, we should easily be able to help out.

Aim4MyHead is a LEO down in the area that got trashed.  If you look at this thread in Team Forum: ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=75&t=264848
it sounds like he doesn't even have clothes.  He is talking about selling his guns and gear to get by.

I'm willing to help just let me know what , when and where. I'm currently not a Team Member so cannot get to the Aim4MyHead post.

Well, after you cut and ran from New York, you should be SWAMPED with extra cash....

Seriously though, Hi Ger...we miss you and best regards to the Mrs.

Guys, I have IM'd Aim4 and hope that he'll call me as soon as he gets a chance...He is under "orders"
(in my usual gentle tone ) not to sell anything until he speaks with me and I consult with you..

If worse comes to worse, I'll just have The Evil Penguin lock him out of the EE until we can pour some cash into his pockets...

I'm in.   Maybe I'm just too new on ar15.com but I learned a lot about who was right here in my general neighborhood this weekend.  What I'm wondering about is how some people might need help but won't ask and I don't even know for sure who to send an email or IM just to ask if they're okay.

I (stupid noob) sure blew it with Aim4MyHead.  Right after I saw this thread and posted on the 15th, I sent him an email offering clothes for his son.

you should put this thread some where else

because usually only fl people look here.

so we should post on more general thread to get more support
