I would like to apologize for my shenanigans. I admit that my post was too rude and way over the top.
It was an emotional outburst triggered by Joe's posts. The current situation in South Africa reminds me of days long gone by when I went through a very eerie period in my life. Yes, I still have very vivid memories of the LA riots. The whole thing had a direct effect on me, because it happened in my own neighborhood. I was scared, outraged and hurt to see the kind of destruction that we (as a people) are capable of doing to ourselves. It was disturbing and I will never forget it. It made me realize that in the end we are a bunch of barbarians under a very thin layer of civilization.
Of course that's no excuse. I should've kept my trap shut.
