Slats brilliant.

I could see right through it!

It’s a real shame that so many wand er around in the dark.

No idea how to make adjustments.

Gotta Louvre a little!

Inside job.

I visited The Louvre back in 2006 and viewed the jewels. Took pictures of some of them too.

Reminds me of the looter guy in New Orleans after Katrina hit.

"Louvre museum closed after robbery, French official says"

The French lie and spew falsehoods. It was not a robbery and none of the perps (if ever caught) will be charged with such.

You see, this event was a simple burglary.

Besides, the jewels that were taken were knock-offs. The real ones are either locked up in a highly secure safe or have been stolen many years ago.

Think for a minute, why do you think the crown belonging to Napoleon’s wife, Empress Eugenie, was discovered damaged outside the gallery? Because it was a cheap counterfeit.

How does it happen? They'll have to ask the head of security.

The interesting thing about the Mona Lisa is it became the most famous painting in the world after it was stolen in the early 20th century. It was eventually recovered and its fame soured. Prior to that robbery it was far less known than it eventually became.

So the Louvre’s armed security guards could not shoot at the burglars, even as the burglars were going down a motorized bin in their escape???
