I agree, it's great to see corporations spending money to help cash-strapped state governments teach children and their families about disaster readiness. It would be better if federal money paid for it, but I'd rather see Ronald McDonald telling kids what to do in case of a tornado than Mike Brown, or nobody at all.
Obviously the answer is state or federal money, but failing that, at least there's someone going around school to school teaching these kids what to do in a tornado.
Or is McDonalds so evil that anything they do is wrong?
