never in the united states

Across Europe at noon Wednesday (6 a.m. EST), politicians, workers and tourists observed a three-minute silent tribute for the victims across southern Asia. TV and radio stations interrupted programming and church bells rang.

never in the united states of america would this EVER happen... it makes me sad to even think of what people would say, how big-business would react to the "3,000 [employees] x 3 minutes", or our citizens simply not caring to stop their life for something literally 1/2 a world away.
