Ironically that 18 years ago people went to Lithuanian Parliament to defend it and people who were elected to represent the nation from Russia. If there would be a need for such actions now - the only thing they'll defend will be only freedom, not the greedy officers sitting in the parliament - as the events on Friday have shown. Those 141 ones must understand that being elected is not a privilege but a duty, not a chance to fill their pockets with money of Lithuanian people but a responsibility to think of the ways how to make this country a better place to live for all who elected them. So far, the parliament members thought about this in the way they shouldn't and probably forgot that there might be no payback for that - but everyone has it's patience limit - even a nation. People don't get angry for no reason, and there have been plenty of reasons for that.

oops i forgot my keys and my phone

Have You ever been in situation when You realized that Your forgot Your keys at home and Your cellphone is also left there? You have no device to communicate. Your home is not on the ground floor, and it has only the windows on the roof, which are covered by a thick layer of snow. The door on the ground floor is locked and the door bell is not working. The only internet cafe You've known and was in convenient place near your home is close of repair works and there isn't another one in 3 kilometers radius - as You already checked that. You live in a kind of town where asking a stranger to call by his cellphone - is a void try - everybody is afraid they will be robbed even if You are not that kind of looking. The snow on Your roof windows is not melting - so it's about minus 10 by celcius. The most useful stuff in Your bag is money - and You are lucky if You are not very limited by the amount - which is not very useful at the end of the work day - when most offices are closed.
