I can empathize today with the workers at the Rhode Island
Pride Committee 's office . Their computer was stolen recently.
Hundreds of hours of information -some of it perhaps quite
sensitive -was stored in its memory disk.
Just yesterday I absent mindedly left a black travel
bag containing nothing more valuable than tediously obtained
information , on a RIPTA bus . I think, I hope it is at their
" lost and found " . What chance was there that an honest person
picked it up ? My very phone number is on a dozen papers.
It never ceases to amaze me that common hoodlums -who could
not do much good in the world, even if " reformed - can almost
never make up for the harm they do .
Our society pays an awful price for its vast numbers of
ethically challenged. I guess , as the line in West Side Story
goes, they are depraved because they were deprived.
Or is that excuse just liberal soft headedness ?
