Mob rule with technology is still mob rule. There is a fine line between democracy and mob rule; that is why the US is a Republic, not a democracy, with fixed election times.

Look whom are the UN officials: A guy lose an election in a given country, or he's disturbing someone in any country, or it just a job for a boy:

Send him to the UN.

What do you expect from people like that?

MQ you're going to love that!

See we have a city, UN mankind heritage: Called Ouro Preto or Black gold. Old mining town.

The coat of arms of the city was changed.

It used to say in Latin:

"proetiosum tamen nigrum" (precious even though is black),

Now it reads: "proetiosum aurum nigrum"
(Precious black gold).
