Default Flash movie -- looting US style ;-)

Here's a flash movie a friend directed me to recently. It's quite hilarious.

No, but I've read the Book of Mormon though. The character, Korihor, had statements that were remarkably similar to posters here at II sound like sometimes. Though fortunately, none of us have been 'struck dumb' yet.

That little movie was great!

But unmentioned is how looting is the providence of all Americans, given any measly excuse like my team lost, or my team won. Not to mention the L.A. Riots(can you belive that the newscasters said with a straight face that the cops would prosecute everyone they could identify on the security tapes?). How about the free-for-all that ensues when an armored truck drops something or gets in an accident and all the money busts loose? Humanity in general has a penchant for looting, when they think they can get away with it. One of the reasons electric companies try to get power back on a.s.a.p. during a black-out is to prevent looters.
