I'm Not Joining That Club Either.

http://ericfoleyphotography.blogspot.com/2007/12/return-of-mr-yuck.htmlWhy are we so much better than the rest of the world? The rest of the world thinks maybe we should stop polluting so much and agrees to sign a treaty. We're a little standoffish. The rest of the world agrees that torture isn't cool, but we're not quite willing to commit on what constitutes "torture". Now the world pretty much doesn't like it when we drop cluster bombs on people, but we think that maybe it should still be allowed.

Anyone who played Worms in the mid-90's know that cluster bombs are indiscriminate killers. They bounce all over and usually end up killing your own damn worms. The article also details how bomblets lie in wait for unsuspecting victims.
unexploded bomblets can then lie dormant for years after conflicts end until they are disturbed, often by children attracted by their small size and bright colors.
I mean, COME ON! The least we can do is paint them in camo (don't you guys paint everything in camo?) or put a Mr Yuck sticker on them. Or I guess a Mr. Explodey sticker would be more appropriate.
