And the 90 year old man that was arrested for feeding the homeless sure looked sweet. Poor thing. I never paid much attention to Russell Brand until lately. Hes starting to grow on me. Heres an excerpt from the Russell Brands video below. Theres a prevailing idea, he continued, that theres something ethically wrong with being poor, and that Americas run according to Christian values. But when people are practicing genuine Christian values, they themselves are directly prosecuted. Sharing is one of the most important Christian values. Looking after each other is a Christian value. But, he added, American businessmen use Christianity and morality of all kind to protect their own corporate interests. Weve got to have a law, he said in the voice of an American businessman, preventing people from sharing food - especially from the hungry, lets exclude them from the get-go. In his own voice, Brand said, this is a very popular current mentality, and presumably it comes from businesses and corporations in town centers saying, I dont like these homeless folk outside my store, its inconvenient and depressing. Dont feel sympathy for the vulnerable people, think about local businesses and their needs not to have human litter cluttering up the walkways.
