i am not debating that hiding porn in kids' gifts is not right... but it beats the heck out of the razor blades, straight pins, and poison people have hidden in candy for other holidays...

This year the local Salvation Army is asking all donors to bring their Christmas presents (for needy families) unwrapped. They are going to check all gifts to make sure they are okay before they wrap them. In the past few years there have been "inappropriate" gifts given to the needy. How rude is that?

I used volunteer this time of the year doing the gift drives and most of the time the inappropriate gifts were simply regifted items....items that were used (even lightly) were wrapped and given as gifts to the needy...I willtell you that the families i dealt with wouldnt not have objected but it as agains the policy of the agency i worked with..

What demon took over this guy? The risk for this prank seems a little high for any normal person to try an pull. Plus, the bennifits of getting away with this prank are? If you're gonna do something that you can go to prison for, atleast let it be something you can profit from.

And the point of the prank is? Most kids see nudity all the time in newspaper ads, TV, magazines, and swiping there dads playboy hidden under the matress. Most little kids bath with each other and never think nothing of it. Society is doing the work for him. Why help the spread of porn and risk going to jail? Does he think he's on a mission from God? Or, was this a smuggling operation for other sick perves?
