PG: I don't know if I would call it mob mentality so much as unified secular bitching. Small individual units can get parts of the government to do things by simply kicking up a fuss, and justifying it. Unfortunately, our governmential entities and employees therein, are not properly acclemated to digress such emotionally charged issues, in fear of bad PR. It is a pathetic state we find our selves in.
