#5 This story has all the nice touches that make every discussion about Haiti a depressing one. The rioters are descibed as "Hungry Haitians" which I'm sure is accurate, but I doubt whether the reporter actually asked any of them "Sir, are you full?" I bet he just assumed they weren't, and it's a pretty safe assumption. And it's almost too perfect that they tried to batter down the palace's gates with a garbage bin. It's Haiti, of course they'd use a garbage bin. Yes, humanity is on a long, downward spiral to the gutter, and Haiti just got there first.
