OT Something to cheer y'all up.

...and this, too:

Yep but no/few guns. You got it coming I expect. Only it will be a massacre over there, folks will have guns. The gov. is cutting back on socialist benifits due to the reccession and there is no work. Plus most are black and hence sub-intelligent.

They were attacking banks too, which gives a clue. You need to burn Wall Street down.

You need to burn Wall

Probably the most sensible thing you've ever said!.

And some not so strange:

Reading about the riots in London, I'm reminded of the poem that ends:

As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man There are only four things certain since Social Progress began. That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire, And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;

And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins, As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn, The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!

Aside: Glenn Beck used the above as a blurb on his most recent book. A number of left-leaning bloggers went nuts! They thought he wrote the poem and used its presence as evidence of a corrupted, possibly diseased, mind.

The poem was written by Rudyard Kipling.

Aside: I had to look it up. A "copybook" was sort of a scratch pad used in English schools. At the top was a pithy saying ("A stitch in time saves nine," "A penny saved is a penny earned," and so forth) written in elegant cursive. The student was tasked with repeating the quote multiple times down the page to master penmanship.

Good to see that you admit to being a low-life racist. I think that's in step-1.

It figures that you'd play the part of Alex.
