: Some ignorant comments below about lumping all 'convicts' as 'scum'!
: What if someone was arrested and convicted of protesting a war? (Eugene Debs, US presidential candidate 1900, 1904, 1908, 1912, 1916, and 1920 spent much of the 1920's in prison for his views on WWI).

You're right, not all convicts are 'scum.' But she didn't mean that. Since I'm her spouse, I can tell you that she was upset by the 'so much for...starving children' comment. To her, someone who jokes about starving children AND is a convict, must not be too great of a person (As a nurse and volunteer, both abroad and in US, she has watched children die in her arms).
She has a good sense of humor, Quincunx(if you're reading this), but there's a difference between good sense of humor and tasteless sense of humor, know what I mean?
