Smash 'n grab: Big looting during Kenya mall siege:
"Jewelry cases smashed and looted. Mobile phones ripped from displays. Cash registers emptied. Alcohol stocks plundered. For the second straight Kenyan tragedy, poorly paid security forces that moved in control the chaos are being accused of robbing the premises. First the troops were accused of looting during a huge fire in August at Nairobi's international airport. Now shop owners at Westgate Mall are returning to their stores following a devastating terrorist attack, in which at least 67 were killed, to find items ransacked and valuables stolen. One witness told The Associated Press that he even saw a Kenyan soldier take cigarettes out of a dead man's pocket." See: http://news.yahoo.com/smash-n-grab-b...181813360.html |

If they do so will my neighbouring country across the causeway, considered how much they have invested in each other. I am not interested in seeing political and racial strife trundling down the checkpoint.
It is the gap from the previous day. That is the one that actually makes money.

China Is Said to Be Holding Professor Over His Activities in Japan

Do any of you living in the region think this will all end peacefully? I still think the Senkaku dispute poses a serious threat to stability in the western Pacific, and one which has the potential to drag the US into a conflict it really does not want to be involved with. There's a certain gloomy fatality about this which harkens back to Sarajevo in 1914.

Why do these people act like they deserve sympathy after the fact? They menace people on the road and one of their own gets run over and now they want to act like the victims? Unbelievable. If I had a wife and kids and they were in the car I would have ran over even more of them, sorry to say it, but I would have.

Also...family of potential criminals tend to be the absolute worst judges of incidents their loved ones were involved with.

Even if any mitigating details pop up...I think the extent of the reaction of the rest of the gang is going to overshadow it. Especially since this particular bike group apparently has a reputation for causing shit. It's going to be very hard for allot of people to accept that the heavily injured guy wasn't also up to no good considering how all his compatriots acted.* *Though lets be honest. The behavior of the bikers collectively is suspect. Was there any reason for them collectively as a pack to all stop in the middle of the high way in response to one of them getting into a fender bender, thus clogging up traffic? There's literally no good reason to do this unless they plan to be intimidating/harassing the SUV driver.

I have little sympathy for the guy that may be paralyzed and no sympathy for his fellow bikers. They were up to no good and boxed in that guy and like others said, he was with his wife and two year old kid. Also, I have no sympathy for the bikers because after they start the trouble and then things went south, they decide to chase down the SUV and beat the man half to death in front of his wife and child. Stupid low-lifes that have made a bunch of bad decisions in their lives and ended up becoming degenerates.
