yeah i mean i don't want to condescendingly guilt trip everybody in this thread, it was more that i just wanted to throw out a reminder that mobilizing and showing your support for relief efforts is pretty much the best thing you can possibly do in retaliation to idiot remarks from ignorant fucking retards who don't know anything about anything at all

Death Toll.'"

And check out his "explanation":
--- Quote ---Sulkin apologized on Sunday and deleted the message, explaining that he wrote it when he believed the death toll was lower.
"Yesterday death toll = 200. Today = 10,000. I am sorry for my insensitive tweet. It's gone," he wrote.

Oh, I guess that's all right then, Mr Sulkin obviously really understands what was offensive about his remark.
Edit: Added link to Mr. Sulkin's explanation.

There are times when I despair of the internet, and then there are times when someone posts a link like this. It took some thought to see how this video was related to my earlier remark, but the penny dropped eventually. Thank you.
