Egypt Gone Mad?

Unless you have been living under a rock for the past few days (if this happens to be true, seek immediate medical help as the lack of water and/or oxygen would have rendered you rather ill), you will have heard that there is mass chaos in the African country known to us folk as Egypt. Reports are suggesting that this rather large event/protest/riot/thing was inspired by the earlier Tunisian uprising in the weeks prior.

Now I'm not entitled to an opinion (I'm 15 for god sake), but this is a rather bleak way of looking at things. If everything worked this way, the entire world would be just a huge uprising caused by the domino effect of inspiration (One thing inspires another, etc.). But now that the president of Egypt has announced his decision to not stand in the next election, everyone needs to just calm the fuck down, and let the guy fuck off quietly.

/rant?

Anyways, here's a picture of protesters riding camels in true Egyptian fashion
