Bizarre remarks
From AFP
Burma's police chief, Khin Yee's remark about the arrests of some activists:
"They were not arrested. They are just being questioned."
More remarks regarding deported journalists:
"Some people enter the country with tourist visas and don't act like tourists."
"Some people overstep the boundaries by working as journalists. Those who overstep the boundaries were deported. Actually, we should take legal action against them, but we didn't do anything to them."
"About six people were deported because they overstepped the boundaries."
Hope
From New York Times regarding Barack Obama's victory for the Democratic nomination:
"We as black people now have hope that we have never, ever had," Mr. Sam-Brew [an immigrant from Ghana] said. "I have new goals for my little girl. She can't give me any excuses because she's black."
To the Future
