US legal system

If the psychopath from the dark knight theater shooting is allowed to have his side of the story heard as well as his day in court, I have no issue with animals having the utmost legal protection.

[The Reckoning]

typical krauts green with envy at our freedom. watching our sports, guzzling our culture, listening to our music, buying our goods, and commenting on our justice system. we still occupy your country and protect you from russia while you sit in your little berliner flat with your turkish friend (who will be deported soon even though he's never been to turkey. LOL german justice system ) spinning wicked new techno beats on an american IMAC computer with no day job whatsoever. you're being such a productive person. oh but what a brave little commentator you are. truth is, no one cares about you except greeks because they're sucking on your teets. sehr gut.

we'll keep our industry up and hardworking americans (40 hour weeks, 2 weeks vacation a year with no social net) will continue to prop up your european society while you continue to strike for reform so your lazy ass can continue imbibing everything american and work less. we all know you won't seriously grow up and find a real career until you're 30 or so. that's okay, your friendly world superpower will continue to shepherd you while you enjoy your pseudo-reality. tschuss.
