Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, often referred to as "Lou Gehrig's Disease," is the progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Motor neurons reach from the brain to the spinal cord and from the spinal cord to the muscles throughout the body. The progressive degeneration of the motor neurons in ALS eventually leads to their death.

By the year 2025, one in every 25 American adults will be diagnosed with ALS, Parkinson’s, or Alzheimer’s. Experts agree that unless we declare war on ALS, Parkinson’s, and Alzheimer’s, these neurodegenerative diseases, as they are known, will become a global health crisis.

You've seen the ice bucket challenge videos how many times and have not yet gained the awareness they are trying to spread?

Keep them coming guys, our work is not done!

I'm sure you'll enjoy the fail compilation:

Lets declare war on faggots instead. Like 1 in 2 on those.

Ice bucket challenge has raised a fuckton of money for a good cause. The water used each time is like the equivalent of flushing your toilet twice. It's negligible for the benefit even in California. Sure, maybe you think it's dumb and "They could just donate the money without this stupid fad," but the stupid fad has mass appeal that a lot of people are getting on board with.

Assholes need to stop trying to out-cool and one-up the plebs that are doing good in the world so they can get their smug points.

How about you donate instead of dumping water on yourself... Or better yet, do both...
