More Looting

An excerpt from the article Food Fight inTime:

Hunger pains can apparently turn even the most upstanding diplomat into a looter. At noon on Friday, food workers at the U.N. headquarters walked off their jobs, calling a wildcat strike. The result: none of the U.N.'s five restaurants and bars was staffed. The walkout left thousands of U.N. employees scrounging for lunch — eventually, the masses stripped the cafeterias of everything, including the silverware.

And where was the US Military when this was happening? Doesn't the US realize that these people need to be watched? I think this needs to be looked into and the US needs to be held accountable for the actions of these obviously poor and uneducated people. (/sarcasm)

I can't believe that these are the people who are supposed to run the world.

If 'Character is what you do when no one is watching', these people have none what so ever.

I truly do worry about the world that my daughter is going to live in.

Uh...not all the French, right? If one's ancestors decided to LEAVE France, it doesn't count, does it?

Uh, just checking, you understand. Very important to know if one's going to need any indulgences racked up or anything.

Maybe we will only blame those who are currently French.

And we will make an exception for Canadian French as well.
