Scary...there are bigger issues than those within our municipal borders

Broadcasted on the BBC yesterday.  This reminds me of the following dialog from Gone with the Wind:

Scarlett: But you are a blockade runner. 
Rhett Butler: For profit, and profit only. 
Scarlett: Are you tryin' to tell me you don't believe in the cause? 
Rhett Butler: I believe in Rhett Butler, he's the only cause I know.
