I am shocked that somebody with political views would use a 'current' event that caused more political upheaval than anything else in a decade to motivate political views.

Hang on for a moment. That's a truism.

So what you're saying is that the socio-political shockwaves set off by important event would be seen in a political light? What?

Ah. Stating the obviously self-evident. I see.

Let's not think too much about the repercussions of such issues. Let's smile and let the governments do their difficult job. After all, that's what we elect them for, right? Right?
