Video: UN fires Tear Gas Into a Hungry Crowd in Haiti
UN peace keeping forces fired tear gas into a crowd of hungry Haitians. I had so many conflicting feelings about this story. I can understand why the Haitians are frustrated and began rioting. They are hungry and have lost their homes. On the flip side, the UN forces have a mission. Their mission is to maintain the peace.

Haiti Earthquake: How to Help
The people of Haiti are going through a terrible ordeal right now. The estimates of the dead are around 500,000. People are living on the streets. Those people lucky enough to be alive have no food and water. Here is a video of the devastation.
Here are links to legitimate organizations that are helping with the Haiti recovery effort:
- The International Red Cross. You can choose what country you want your donation to go to.
- The International Salvation Army.
- You can also help immediately by donating to the Red Cross to assist the relief effort. Contribute online to the Red Cross, or donate $10 to be charged to your cell phone bill by texting "HAITI" to "90999."
- Donate to Mercy Corps through Amazon.com.
- Donate to Save the Children.
- Donate to the Clinton Foundation
I have double checked these links and they go to legitimate organizations.
