South Korea jury article is interesting. Advisory juries, murder trials done in one day - they have a very different system.
mmm, beer. THIRD!
Obama wants my vote, but right now, voting for politicians I don't like isn't at the top of my list.
- Hillary supporter who will never support Obama
I hate Obama and his Obamatards so much.

Easy for you to say 9:06. I supposed it never occurred to you that no one cares.
9:06, it's not your fault. It's not your fault, 9:06. It's not your fault. It's not your fault.

Clinton can pay her own debts, thank you.
9:46, do you shave your ratted armpit snatches? I don't know where guys got the idea that their armpit snatches aren't disgusting, stenchy eyesores. Go take a bic to that jungle you nasty f*ck.
And no, it's not rational that it's okay for you to shave your face, but not your pits, moron.
