The way the story is told is funny, Jacq. What's less funny is the ton of stupid and full of hatred comments that follow - and sadly it's more and more common for many videos put on YouTube, whatever the subject. This gives a very sad image of the human kind.

haha, long ago I learned not to read the public commentary after general news items or videos.   Its the 21st Century equivalent of a public urinal wall and a marking pen.     :P

Merry Christmas

After decades of reading polls I noticed an interesting phenomenon: No matter what the subject, 30-percent of those questioned always favor something idiotic or horrible. It is almost always 30-percent. For example, if you were to ask, "Do you approve or disapprove of genocide?", 30-percent of those questioned would approve of it. Armed with that knowledge are the comments on YouTube (or anywhere else) surprising? -- Russ

It's most likely that the 30% that would approve of genocide think it's something used in a vegetable garden.

Merry Christmas all.
