Thanks for confirming that there are indeed people who make this argument,
it is particualry ironic that you do so on the day that the FN capture
their fourth town. I belive they have make quite a fuss of the
'barbaric' animal killing methods used by immigrants. Beyond that I
have nothing to say to you, we have nothing in common
