Today I am sad.
You notice that the demonstrations in Egypt did not become violent and dangerous until the “pro-Mubarak” supporters appeared….after the people would not leave upon hearing Mubarak’s “concession” not to run for re-election, but also, not to step down right away…. pointing most clearly to the president’s supporters as being paid agitators, which any reasoning individual would surmise after today’s exhibition.
On a viewer ratings scale, a peaceful demonstration gets old pretty fast.
Today, we must have our excitement, our violence. Once again, we have provided, not news, not a real event of honest people and their lives, but entertainment…..
