    Default Take what you need

    If this man was walking around your neighbourhood and had the same sign, what would you do?
    To be honest, I wouldn't take a single note as I didn't earn that money or it wasn't a gift.

    Just watch at the people who take the money and who doesn't.
    It probably won't shock you one bit.

    That is a very powerful video Floki — thanks for sharing.

    I have to admit I wasn't really surprised — but I was humbled by the end.

    i dont know much about law but i understand film. this show is if anything an exercise in how to manipulate an audience. in fairness to the directors, they do it very skillfully. but what the audience fails to realize is that they have been coerced psychologically. thats why you have so many calling for him to be pardoned etc.

    cinema can be very powerful. vertigo for example is brilliant at twisting the audiences emotions.

    Unfortunately Tom I would need to take all that money and I don't even wear a suit:
    Punting is a pricey pastime

    It shows why the rich get richer in life- greed is good and all that lark!!

    I think it is the same for charity collections on the street- the old dears and the less well off give more...
