Dear Friends

Last night as I recorded today's Ming Pao editorial, 
I was reminded how the recent behavior of some Hong Kong
politicians has been very bad....e.g. throwing banana peels and 
eggs during parliamentary speeches

The bad manners of some politicians in their legislatures is a problem
in most countries....more so when debates are televised

Behavior that would not be tolerated in a classroom is allowed 
to take place in a legislature

Sr Clare Condon's article on yesterday's menu had a similar theme:
Is a new wave of violence
eroding civilised society?
- making the point that if people like politicians give a bad example, 
it's no wonder that violent behavior is increasing in society

Jesus, please give the world better (behaved) political leaders!
