Hunger Riot?

After about 2,500 people rioted when hearing a false rumor that the government was handing out food stamps, this is what Alderman Hines had to say.

“The food crisis in Milwaukee - and throughout the United States - is worse than many of us have realized,” Hines said in a statement. “We expect long lines for free food in Third World countries; we don’t expect a line of 2,500 people waiting for food vouchers at the Marcia P. Coggs Center.”

Bull.  Let’s look at the evidence, shall we?  This is a picture from the MJS story. 

Tell me what you see.  Here’s a bit of what I see:

1) Woman talking on cell phone. 
2) Man with designer jeans.
3) Fat people.
4) Stylish pink-streaked hair.

Yes, there are hungry people out there, but that does not explain what happened today.  Most of the people in this picture are clearly well fed and have discretionary income to spend on their wants.
