The caveats of riding someones coattails

I think the POINT everyone made was you should have thought through your question before asking it...."what if I take items that are being donated for charity where I can make a buck"....you should have answered your own question and said..."you know, that's not a good idea...MAYBE I should go organize my own FREE drop off instead of riding on their hard work".....sorry if that is harsh, but that is essentially what you were thinking based on your post...sometimes you can answer your own question if you think a second....just sayin.
