Louvre Closed

The Louvre was closed today because over 100 its employees left in protest against the mass pick pocketing that has taken place in the Louvre.  The Museum has recognized the problem and due to the strike, they had to shut down the Louvre to address the problem.  In my opinion, the fact that this is a problem is quite saddening.  First, people shouldn't ever be pickpocketing and the fact that it has gotten so bad that they had to close the Museum.  It's no wonder why the pickpocketers flock to there, with 30,000 visitors a day, there is no shortage of unexpecting tourists.  These people who do this steal from people every day and do not follow the will of God.  God wants us to be truthful and respect all others.  While most of us would not steal money or expensive belongings from others, we can still relate this to our lives.  We shouldn't lie to others, cheat on tests or homework, or take anything that belongs to another.  God desires us to respect the belongings of others and live our lives to the fullness and promote man fully alive.
