Halo 3 in a War Torn Country

Sometimes I wonder what Liberians would think of our playing the video game, Halo 3, on board the ship.The situation becomes more complex when you consider the teenagers on board. I imagine they are the people who have the toughest time being squashed for years on a ship with 400 others. No where to escape or be on your own. No chance to get a job and earn money to do your own thing. And sheltered from the reality of what goes on outside along with the rest of the crew.

The situation becomes more complex when you consider that there are both hard core travellers that come on board and young 18 year olds who have never travelled before. The blanket rules seem to cover the more uninitiated but cause a somewhat stifling environment for the others. I suppose you have to cover your own butt as an organisation.
