There is not much that gets my motor spinning. So long as it does not involve me directly, the rest of the world can do as it wishes and I will leave it to those who care to act to change things.
However, even against that background, I feel both saddend and repulsed at the idea that prisoners may gain release by fighting other inmates. Don't know why it does this to me. Must be getting soft as I grow older. My softening is not too far advanced; I cannot see why we strive to change governmental attitudes in foreign countries when the rot lies at such a basic level. If they cannot see that this is wrong, they should retain the burden of World Bank loans etc. And, yes, I know it is a round eye trying to impose his standards on a foreign country. I'll live with that charge.
