Farker's family shelters 16 hurricane refugees

After my posts about the violent, looting assholes in New Orleans, it's nice to find some news that restores faith in humanity. Two Farkers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana (screen names Swolt and Gabbybaby, links go to their profiles) are helping Swolt's parents take care of 16 hurricane refugees, mostly women and children, and their pets who all showed up at his parent's door. His parents live on four acres of land there. He and his dad built a rough shelter that they're working on improving and even a makeshift kennel for the pets. Swolt's mother is a teacher and has even offered to tutor the kids. Before you ask, they already contacted the Red Cross about sheltering these people and were told they'd just be put in already very crowded shelters with hundreds of other people. So the family has decided to continue sheltering these now homeless people.

I won't link the Fark threads about it as you have to be a member to see them since they're in the Totalfark section, but I know enough people who are vouching for Swolt to know that this is the real thing. Members have been sending care packages and donating via Paypal using Swolt's gmail address from his profile.

This family's generosity just blows me away.
