22. I'm sorry--are people in the midst of an internal revolution bound by the Geneva Conventions?
Edited on Fri Oct-21-11 04:00 PM by Lyric
Now, Gadhafi dragging people out of their homes at night and hanging them in the public square for imagined conspiracies? Funny how THAT never merited any kind of international investigation. Or him sending his military aircraft to bomb his own civilians. That was a rich person doing it, so I guess it was A-fucking-Okay with GENEVA. But the minute that poor people do it? Oh man.

Apparently, violent and brutal executions are only okay if the wealthy and powerful are doing it.

Fuck that hypocritical shit.
