^ Someone should ask the Chinese people with the BMWs what they're doing. I'd imagine most of the Chinese people (minus maybe some of the c-lais) probably ARE taking it to redistribute. Seen it done before, so lay off the hate until there's more information guys. 
I've volunteered at the Food Bank (Vancouver) before. No offense, but most of the food isn't exactly 5-star. 1/4 of the food they give out is Mac + Cheese. Not exactly the stuff Hongers would load up on regularly. Hell, I'd get sick of it if I had to eat this stuff day in and day out. I don't think ANY c-lai out there would voluntarily eat non-FOB food daily.

But you can't refuse.

I guess people really don't feel shame it's more of a moral thing here. Even if you expose them, it wouldn't bring about any legal routes to take to stop these actions Posted via RS Mobile | |

I wasn't here during remembrance day (obviously) and not much on thurs.
Again, not something I personally care to pursue. Just something I wanted to bring up to ppl to make them aware of this BS.

However, there are bad sides to every race. Ones who scam welfare cheques, ones who do insurance fraud, ones that do grow ops and in this case, ones who have no shame and take.
Like I said before, theres asians and theres chinks. The chinks have got to go. | grow ops should not be in the same category as insurance fraud and welfare scam. Grow ops actually involve WORK lol

so far we still dont see pictures with people with X5s, MLs and Jaguar loading up their trunk.
And I mean there are cheap Chinese people for sure, but hey what about the people leeching off the welfare system? should we disclose their races too? I think people leeching the welfare system is costing us much much more than any canned food in the food bank.

Camry guy backed up and parked down the road. 
I think these people were collecting for some Relief Group in China. I saw them with posters when they were bringing food back. 
This asian guy had two boxes. This is after one box got loaded up. 
I didn't get any line up shots of the people waiting in line. Didn't wanna walk out there with a camera and start taking pics considering I'm right next door. Anyways, I just wanted to rant about it. I myself won't be donating nothing anymore myself. I wanna see that X5 and C-Class lady and embarass them though. | For those who miss the pics Next time do a close up of their liscense plate and thier face as well. We can use the power RS/FACEBOOK to find who they are and eembrass thier kids/grandkids.

I think people leeching the welfare system is costing us much much more than any canned food in the food bank. | The point I meant to bring up was that when people donate to the food bank we're expecting them to be handing out to the HOMELESS and the POOR. Not people that are just as average as everyone else. Throughout the year there's pleas for MORE donations because the homeless/poor get forgotten outside of Holidays. But if throughout the year they're just handing out to normal people then it doesn't make much sense does it? Fuck I don't think I make enough money to support myself, should I waltz on over? I don't mind saving $20-30 in groceries every week.
I'd say 60+% of the people in line look like normal middle class citizens. Maybe 40% or less look "needy". By needy I mean coming in with shopping carts or bicycles and looking like they haven't shaved or showered for weeks. Some look like "trailer trash" types of people, but MOST are middle class Asian/SE Asian/Persian.
Anyways as I've said, I'm not going way out of my way to prove myself to the non believers. It's not my battle, just pisses me off, got more than enough to do in my own life then to concern myself with these types of people.

Maybe some of them are unemployed or out of employment insurance? I am sure the food bank have some kind of check to ensure foods go out to the one in need.
Why don't you go volunteer or have a chat with Richmond food bank?

You have to remember the people that work is volunteer which to be honest they don't give shit about it. Some might be from high school just doing it to ger work experience........
That's why I don't donate anymore. Most of the time the money I donate will end up being 80% of it going to administor fees or as the OP said food/clothes... being given to people who don't need it.

Revscene used to have meets to collect food donations. We also had cruises where we'd stop by each sponsor to pick up donations and finally end up at the food bank to drop it off.
This picture was taken in 2002 back when:
- RS was small
- meets/cruises were friendly and frequent
- there were 3 sections: Import chat, VLS chat, and Buy&Sell
- donations were plentiful and supported by members, admin, and sponsors

Found this fact on that site.
- Canadians under 18 years old make up 37 per cent of those assisted by food banks.
In the specific Richmond case, I can definitely disagree.

I've worked with many luxury car dealerships (Benz, BMW, Audi, Lexus etc) and you will be shocked at who buys big ticket items cash and who Lease/finance them.
