And how am I doing "just what I am complaining about?" I have made no personal attacks on anyone. Attacking what a person says "about their dog" is one thing. Making rude comments about their financial or phyhsical status is as whole different ball game.

I am not reopening the discussion sbout her dog

This thread is not about whether she did right or wrong by her dog. It is whether the posters did right or wrong, by another individual, by YT, by an entire class of people.
Jeanie,
Again I'm not condoning attacks on anyone with a disability or for being poor, but I don't honestly see how you can separate out your quote above.
I don't think you can say whether posters did right by that individual without the connection of her doing right by the dog. It goes hand in hand because it's what ignited the passion and responses.
I'm not going to lose sight of what disturbed me about that situation to begin with because I think it's serious.
