L.A. Times: Don't Blame Hurricane Victims for FEMA Fraud

I about choked on my Cheerios this morning while reading the L.A. Times editorial which comes perilously close to approving of the fraudulent use of FEMA relief funds by hurricane victims...how dare we blame hurricane victims if they wanted to drown their sorrows in GIRLS GONE WILD?

You see, any problems with misspending were FEMA's fault, and to blame those who used the money for vacations and porn videos is wrong, because "obsessing about the spending habits of refugees comes perilously close to blaming the victim." The Times goes on to say "Bad spending decisions are an unfortunate side effect of a clever and responsive policy" and "hardly shocking."

Darn straight I'll blame the victim and be shocked, when my own hard-earned income is taken by the government and then passed on to others to be spent on sex change operations, porn movies, and divorce fees, not to mention season football tickets and tropical vacations.
