Yeah, Al Pacino gets to deliver his "You're out of order!" speech in court again. But it misses the point that people carried out this act of gross vandalism (not a suspicion of unAmerican activities or beliefs) and if it were in Singapore, a public caning would be deserved. The problem in the U.S. is that there doesn't seem to be any more public shame. If there were, Jerry Springer's show wouldn't exist.In the words of Leonard Cohen:
"Things are gonna slide, slide in all directions.
Won't be nothing, nothing you can measure anymore.
The blizzard of the world is getting colder,
and it's overturned the order of the soul.
When they said: 'Repent, Repent, Repent!',
I don't know what they meant."
