Samantha Torrence - When Tommy Jordan posted a video response to his daughters public rant on Facebook he did not imagine it would go viral. Tommy's method of dealing with his daughter, Hannah's, written conniption was to put 10 bullets into her lap top. His choice brought on a slew of hate mail as well as unwanted attention from the media, Children Services, and the Police. The video also drove fans, supporters, and spectators to his Facebook page where his support for a Muscular Dystrophy Charity event was displayed.Mr. Jordan's MD charity is a mock lock up where he agrees to make bail or be locked up forever. The bail goal for Tommy was $800.00, now since the video took off his bail was met and more. From his Facebook page on Friday, February 10th:
Pre Viral: Spent 1 month raising money for MDA on Facebook. Earned $320.00
Post Viral: Spent 2 days raising money for MDA on Facebook. Earned another $3,050.00 with no sign of slowing down so far...
Today after just one weekend the amount has raised to over $7,000 dollars.
Mr. Jordan's excitement at this turn of events is probably matched by those who will benefit from the large donation to the Muscular Dystrophy Association. The excitement is set to grow as donations do not appear to be slowing down. Now Tommy Jordan has indicated that the goal for his area is $40,000 dollars and he figures that if every person who has viewed his video ( over 21 million) just donated one dollar an amazing amount of good could come from his unique and perhaps controversial punishment towards his teenage daughter's outburst. He has asked his Facebook fans to help the area meet the $40,000 goal.
