A lot of people have been commenting (not just here) on the pictures of people stealing TP, etc. It may look funny that people are stealing TP but I think it sheds some light on the social situation there. Stealing is NEVER ok, never. But that fact that many of these folks are stealing TP and paper towels instead of big screen TV's might actually show what a bad situation they are in. Now I believe our personal situations are no one's fault but our own, and that's true for them too. But hell, if you have to STEAL TP just so you can wipe your ass each day, you truly are in a bad situation and it's time to make some life changes.
