  • Why would they kill them?

  • It is becoming more and more apparent that these people are pure evil, that how can we have share a common bond with those who'll recklessly kill innocent people? How can backing down from such horrible evil defeat them? We owe it those who have died the most horrific deaths under these curcumstances to make these people pay!

    ciao
