Roy Larner – “f*** you, I’m Millwall” – put on terror watch list

Biasedbbc find their new hero…
“Roy Larner, 49, was arrested for breaching a restraint order granted to his 80-year-old mum Phyllis following his conviction for damaging a TV set at her home in Peckham.”
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/8941186/lion-of-london-bridge-millwall-fan-to-be-released-from-jail/
“’Lion of London Bridge’ found with half a pound of drugs in police raid on his caravan.”
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/lion-london-bridge-found-half-13511139
“He told a Muslim member of staff: ‘All Muslims are the same – scum,’ before making a gun gesture with a rolled up newspaper… video shows Roy Larner with two dogs on leads and protestors chanting can be heard in the background. He seems to be on the pavement and he says, ‘F***ing foreign c***s.’”
“He then leans towards the black photographer and spits at him…”
“The defendant then walks away to St Georges Road and turns back, shouting, ‘People like you stink, foreign c***s, f*** off’.”

Aah, there you are again, maxi.
Where is my apology from you, please?
Is this the Maxi?
Who has never, to my knowledge, condemned racist mass paedophile gang rapes of white female children by Muslims on this website.
I conclude that Maxi approves of these rapes, maybe has taken part in these rapes.
Foxtrot Oscar.
Hi Maxi,
So great to hear from you as always.
As a thought experiment, just ask yourself a question:
If you are in a pub, and a gang of knife wielding jihadis smash their way in, intent on slaughtering you, who would you rather have at your side:
a) Roy the Millwall fan
or
b) a politically correct soy boy?
Feel free to think about it before you answer.
This report should appear on BBC news, but it will serve as an example of bias by omission.

Yes folks, its school diversity week, starting today.
What is School Diversity Week?
A week in which schools and colleges across the UK celebrate lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans equality in education.
This year schools and colleges representing 1.2 million pupils have signed up to take part.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_homosexuals_in_Nazi_Germany
Oi maxi, where’s my apology?
Interesting to read further about the Nazis in the SA, otherwise known as Brownshirts or Stormtroopers. They were the paramilitary bully boys of the streets. Hitler invited the very effective leader Ernst Rohm back from Bolivia to help him get the Nazis into power in Germany. Rohm was a homosexual and friend of Hitler despite his sexuality and it didn’t trouble Adolf that the SA had a high percentage of gay men. So long as it was useful! Only when Rohm had built up a strong movement with the capability of overthrowing the Hitlerian faction did Adolf have a change of heart and decided to send in the SS to liquidate the leadership in the notorious Night of the Long Knives. After that Hitler allowed the persecution of homosexuals. They were suspect and Hitler would have no rivals or potential dissenters.
Tell the whole truth Maxi!
The PC narrative has decided that gay people are victims beyond reproach (‘cept Milo) and to hell with the reality.
That the Nazi’s turned on their one time gay allies shouldn’t surprise anyone. The Nazis were totalitarians (”control freaks in modern parlance) and the obsession of such people is to stay in control.
They will turn on anyone who has the potential to threaten them, real or imagined. The totalitarian heirs to the Nazis are the followers of the Politically Correct ideology. Their desire to shut down dissent and enforce consent is just as strong. I suggest all people realize this because the future might see the PC tyrants switch sides on the issue to abandon their support for Gaydom if it came to a choice between Islam and homosexuals.
Maxicony
We learned not to persecute gays many years ago. We even tolerate and accept fisters like you. What is your point?
Puzzled why you think Nazi atrocities were hilarious. Bit of a pervert are you?
G,
“A week in which schools and colleges across the UK celebrate lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans equality in education.”
Correct me if I’m mistaken – but I don’t even think those same schools celebrate “Poppy Day?”
I only use day and not week.
Stop me mid sentence but isn’t there some kind of brain washing going on here or am I not fitting into todays spirit of togetherness of peace and love [man].
My 7 stone dog thinks she is a cat. Rejoice, rejoice, lets have a week long celebration.
I’m of an age where I simply cannot understand what has happened over the last decade (or the last 5 years), where children, yes CHILDREN, have the mental capacity to even realise they are in the wrong body !
I realise its a long and complicated issue, but discussing this with various people of my generation and those that followed us, we can never remember anything like this. We were simply children at school, with never an inkling of our contemporaries being anything other than what we were – boys and girls ! We were even innocent enough to believe that just by kissing someone you could get pregnant !!! and when we eventually knew the mechanics of the sex act, we just went ugh ! Yes, as we grew older, then a realisation of some that they were homosexual or lesbian was ever thus, but wishing to be a different gender was never on the agenda !
Someone in my group thought there was ‘something in the water’, and another said is was a ‘fad’, with another saying it could be a symptom of ‘mass hysteria’, whatever the answer, its clear that we haven’t just reached a point where the numbers have increased significantly year on year for gender change, without a reason – whether its ‘something in the water’ or not.
B,
“I’m of an age where I simply cannot understand what has happened over the last decade (or the last 5 years), where children, yes CHILDREN, have the mental capacity to even realise they are in the wrong body ! ”
Todays enlightened children have no say in what time they go to bed yet their parents have no say in what sex their child is?.
Delusions of a tiny part of todays sick society that’s ruling the majority of us who know that somewhere down the road some pretty mixed up kids are going to be filling those NEWLY built mental hospitals made specially to cope with the onslaught of mad kids.
And for those BBC/CH 4 programme makers which promotes the lie of Trans-Kids – STOP IT!
Compare and contrast Mr Jon Sopel.

You gotta Larf.
Does the utter tool do all his ‘journalism’, selectively, via his filtered twitter feed?
By the same token shouldn’t the beeb condemn Stormzy’s disgusting foul-mouthed attack on the government and Boris?
Instead of which they worship the talentless hate-monger and race-baiter.
Incidentally, this is how the magnificent Bojo responds, with disdainful humour: “Boris Johnson has laughed off Stormzy’s “f*** Boris” chant on the Glastonbury main stage and put forward the rapper actually said “Back Boris”.”

6.55pm: trailers on BBC 1 for some Asian comedian with a gammy eye on his hilarious travels and then Nadiya the GBB winner who for some reason has had her headbag amputated and now has her own cookery show, which she presents in colourful Zsa Zsa Gabor turbans. The main show about fiddling the NHS comes on presented by a black woman.
Now what is this about people of colour being under represented in the British media?
It’s just ironic the man who started this debate, Lenny Henry, well that neither his former wife or his past and current girlfriends have been from the BAME community; they have all been white.
Oh well, do as I say and not as I do, eh Lenny?
Cassandra, speaking of turbans, that reminds me of another forthcoming anniversary that the BBC may well choose to forget: Camila Batmanghelidjh and a certain charity with a certain Director on the Board.
8pm BBC1 is about a NHS fraudster who stole £1 million worth of surgical equipment

For consumers of popcorn the sight of Jeremy Hunt desperately pretending to be pro brexit because of his focus groups is priceless .
I often wonder why these fools don’t see how ridiculous they look . Do they really think those who will be voting for the next PM will be impressed by dumb lies ?
As for future financial plans – deal with social care for the elderly now – but leave everything else until after we leave the ReichEU when the impact – good or bad – will be felt .
Why is it so complicated ?
I’m guessing mr Hunt will be the favoured red Tory on the BBC programmes since Bojo has expressed his displeasure about the state broadcaster ….
Lies, damned lies and the Guardian.
Heavy criticism from Nadine El-Enany for denying the right to free speech on campus (free speech in the Guardian’s inimitable way of course meaning Muslim rights). It’s all Prevent’s fault — she quotes the Office for Students report which contains the shocking stat that 53 events or speaker requests were rejected, which is “shutting down free thinking in Britain’s universities” and creating a “culture of fear” amongst students.
Well a quick look at the figures shows 59,574 were actually approved, so Prevent rejections amounted to just 0.0009% of the total. But you won’t find that stat in the Guardian as it would get in the way of a good whinge. Here’s some other stats you won’t find:
— EU counter-terror figures from 2017 show up to 25,000 Islamist extremists who could pose a threat are in the UK.
— Out of around 400 jihadists who have returned to the UK from Syria and Iraq, only 40 have been prosecuted. Most have been placed in rehabilitation schemes instead.
Meanwhile, for the nth month running, according to MI5 the current threat level for international terrorism in the UK is SEVERE.
TM,
“……..only 40 have been prosecuted. Most have been placed in rehabilitation schemes instead.” We should take a leaf from the Chinese book……..but the quesion then will be, rehab at vast expense or simply ship them back?
G, I can’t see the latter being much of a possibility. Rehab will most likely be a Raheem Sterling shirt, a Netflix subscription and a year’s free KFC. That’s what British culture is.
How much of a visionary do you have to be to realise at some point you’ll catch up to the can you kicked down the road…?

Steve Hilton’s show ‘next revolution’ has been recently discussing George Orwell’s 1984 in comparison to what’s happening nowadays.It would be good for the Liberal/socialist BBC and the rest of the media to watch and learn. When one point of view becomes dominant and inhibits free speech to their capitalist opponents by not having a fair and balanced media. What could be considered more destructive is the weakness of the centre/right sliding to the centre/left opinion that agrees with them on this issue. We need the conservative party to deselect the liberals within the party. Brexit farce has rid the party of a few horrors(Soubrey and co) but there still remains many more liberals and worse still globalists with their foolish secret society beliefs. You would have thought that these intelligent people, but sadly too proud would realise the bible has prophesised the result. My advice to them is there’s still time to repent just like Bob Dylan did.

This is a very quick opening shot. Re the odd silence / blackout on certain events in the media and in particular the BBC. I have been very busy closely following a long paper trail and I think it looks likely that a lot of the pressure to non-report comes from outside the actual media. I am about to leave for a couple of days but will be back with the links / pressure groups / etc. between the organisations I have looked at and the press that I have found. It might explain a lot.

Stop Postal Votes except for the elderly and disabled
Postal voting is ‘wide open to fraud’ and should be scrapped in its current form. Judge Richard Mawrey, who sits in judgment on election fraud cases, previously said ballot-rigging was now a ‘probability’ in some parts of Britain due to the extension of postal voting.

BBC Online News:
“”Glastonbury: Teenage fan Alex’s rap with Dave ‘too good to be true’ “”
“”Fifteen-year-old Alex became an internet sensation after performing on stage with rapper Dave at Glastonbury.””
“”The rapper was performing on The Other Stage on Sunday afternoon when he asked the teenager to join him on stage.””
“”The pair performed the rapper’s track with AJ Tracey, Thiago Silva – named in honour of the Brazil and Paris Saint-Germain football player.””

Cultural Appropriation? A white, suburban and very middle-class male named Alex (aged 15) gets up on stage from the audience and makes a fool of himself for ever.
I hope he’s proud when he’s 42 and his kids laugh at him.

Jeremy Vine on Monday was running Project Fear No-Deal again, (give it up BBC, we had the debate, we voted, you lost).
The man from the NHS said some things that really needed challenging. How come after 70 years plus we can no longer train enough staff? Back in the 1950s we exported nurses! With no country in Europe producing enough babies to sustain their populations why should we expect to be able to poach their doctors and nurses? Are we paying over the odds? Why would European drug producers suddenly stop selling to us? Who is going to stop the imports and why? Ditto where are European hospitals going to get their UK drugs from if not from us? Can you imagine the fuss on the continent if patients are ‘dying’? They have newspapers, TV, patients, voters and politicians too!
Then a real gem – they have forty NHS managers in Brussels!! What for? I worked on a large US-UK programme, we had one ‘man in Washington’ and one on the West coast. That was as much to do with time differences as anything else. There might be some wisdom in having an NHS ‘shell’ company on the continent, a name plate, a legal formality with a staff of one, but forty! Doesn’t the NHS have telephones, faxes or the internet? Why Brussels? What’s wrong with Calais? ‘Our man’ could come home nights and weekends on a bike!
Oh I forgot, the NHS, like the BBC, is a jewel in Labour’s crown and is beyond reproach.

Dead man drops from aircraft into London garden narrowly missing a man who was sun bathing.
Edit: (Well this is what they said on Talk Radio news but the bbc version says he “had been” sunbathing.)

Is this an implication that he might not be such when clearly he “stowed” himself “away” on an aircraft?
According to the bbc he is only a “suspected” stowaway.

Should a 15 year old be allowed to play in the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament? Good enough or not why can’t it be that they wait until they have reached 18- the earliest age to be called a professional-surely at such an early stage they will still be in the middle of their schooling-will this policy allow under adult age young people into any of the sports, and be abel to earn stronomical sums of money-such as we are hearing is being paid to women footballers by way of sponserships in the USA- of course they ruin everything in respect to sport. BBC et al are all over Woman’s football, but let them not forget that there is a world Cricket match going on. All gone mad.

A gentle, quiet, well-spoken gentleman from Hong Kong with immaculate English provides a clear lesson for The Brexit Party and UKIP should mass demonstrations become necessary in the UK on 1 November 2019.
Predictive text or poor elocution? I suspect the former. The DUP’s spokesperson for Brexit is named as Sally Wilson during the news. (Sammy Wilson is DUP spokesperson.)
Trouble is brewing in the business world. The greenwashing apparent in the business segment 6.00a.m. to 6.25a.m. was blatant. This greenwashing was continued by PY Gerbeau (welcome back – a favourite Frenchman, love the accent) who is oblivious that boats are one of the most environmentally unfriendly, most CO2 emitting, forms of travel. All that dirty marine diesel and in the water, too! Quelle shocke! Horreur! Never mind. The new theme park for the Thames Estuary is ‘back on’, having been shelved for a while. PY is keen that visitors (never mind the CO2 expended for the park’s construction) ride boats and not in cars to enjoy the greenwashed sights.
There is trouble brewing in the financial sector of the business. One of Neil Woodford’s funds has been ‘re-closed’ and will not open today as expected. Peer to peer lending is also in trouble.
Jeremy Corbyn is in trouble, too, and a poorly spoken, loud, north-east England Labour MP is brought on to make vague excuses for him, the vagueness of which Jeremy would himself be proud. It was noticeable that Rick Nobinson did not really hector or interrupt her. I wish he would treat Conservative MPs, especially the Brexiteer ones, like that.

Glad I ‘chucked’ viewing September 2017. From what’s said, the broadcast airwaves are now brimming with wimmin, blacks, asians and that odd crop (which I cannot fathom) of, simply, ‘inbetweeners’ which I use collectively for homosexuals, lesbians and the other multiplicities.
Agree 100% James, even my wife has commented on the number of women being involved in seemingly every aspect of Radio/TV and all following subject matter that excludes us hetro males-they fail to appreciate that the audiance is sick and tired of the moanings and groanings of this small MARGINALISED group-oh how awful life is in the normal lane!

The BBC should innovate – eg – get Jeremy Kyle to do the footy . VAR and DNA – what better ?
I do wish the BBC would not keep going on about Lucy Bronze.
Bronze is third place, as I discovered yesterday. It is the winningnest of the semi-final [Trump voice} losers. It may be said to be the Happy Medal but [Trump voice again} Silver is SO LOSERS!

Between 2010 and 2011, Hall’s salary increased from £165,000 to £205,000, making him the highest-paid Chief Executive of all UK charities. His emoluments for management of the Royal Opera House exceeded £390,000 per annum in the years ending 29 August 2010 and 2011 respectively.

How old should a player be to enter a professional tournament or at what age is it permitted? As things stand a 15 year old is playing Tennis at Wimbledon and yesterday beat Venus Williams-good for her I hear everyone cheer, but really is it good that a young person still in the throws of her/his education be able to play in a Pro Tournament? Of course this young person like all others will have gone through a selection process to be playing at Wimbledon-did she go through the junior section? Did she win it? Irrespective I don’t agree that anyone under the age of 18 should be allowed to compete in a professional arena-my son was a very talented Rugby player but at fifteen his body had not yet fully developed and he would not have been able until at least 18 to enter the professional game. Mind you the soccer promoters if he had played soccer and spotted him as future player would have no doubt pushed to have got him into a pro team SAP-ok maybe not. Money of course is at the bottom of it all-pity nonetheless. That is where most of our licence fee goes-paying vast amounts for TV rights & mainly just one sport seemingly as well a paying vast amounts to people like Lineker and for what?
Tarien
Can’t help noticing that if said 15 year old were on a boat across the Med or English Channel they would be classed as a ‘vulnerable child’ by the very same impartial state news organisation singing the praises of the said tennis player.
Tarien,
I heard John Macinrow talking about out coco … she is the offspring of 2 professional athletes and effectively has been ‘bred’ for sports glory – even got sent to some tennis school in France for a year – and also did the Junior Circuit .
I have no interest in tennis or Wimbledon but thought it right to put this up. I’m sure that – due to the nature of the game – tennis people don’t know much about anything other than tennis … but I have no evidence for this assertion …and don’t care too much if I’m wrong …
Well there you go Fedup2- bred for glory and the financial rewards it brings-yes shallow I agree and almost meaningless unless much of what is earned is donated to causes that might improve the lives of others.
14 & 15-year-olds have been playing in Wimbledon ladies singles as long as I can remember. Tracey Austin, Andrea Jeager spring to mind. And how old was Boris Becker when he won?
Actually I think Boris was 17 years old Roland, but yes I agree young players have been around a long time, but nonetheless does it really help them unless you measure the pounds earned-let us take away the money entirely and then lets see who or how many will strive to gain the titles.
The vibe I get this morning from the tone of the relevant BBC article is…
….Just as Trump is responsible for the welfare of the children of foreign parents (man and daughter drown in Rio Grande) so the UK government is responsible for the health and safety of foreign stowaways in aircraft undercarriages…..
Part of my argument that the Far Left want to continually load up market economies with a never-ending list of expensive ‘responsibilities’ so that eventually said market economies will fail.
Thus it will be proved that there must be a better way. Socialism.
And the BBC cheers the loudest.
Venezuelans of course might well wish to disagree…….
Sluff,
Cultural Marxism strives first and foremost to destroy the idea of a ‘family’. Their first priority. LGBTXYZ is symptomatic of this along with so-called ‘Marriage’ for same sexes. Following, will be the destruction of a competent (or in the UK’s case, a half-baked) Government. Overloading will certainly do the trick with distractions and imposing, “expensive responsibilities”. Problem is, there is insufficent brain amongst the current crop of the political elite to understand this, let alone resist.
Bring on The Brexit Party I say. I’m just about to send them another donation. Join me.
Over on Breitbart, Ann Widdecombe is saying that The Brexit Party could win the next GE.
While I believe TBP could win she is forgetting that our voting system is now so very corrupt that steps will be taken to make sure TBP does not win.
As in Peterborough, Tower Hamlets and Thanet South, there will be unusual delays, boxes missing, shifty characters known for voting fraud, huge postal block votes and other third world practices all happening.
I don’t know if TPTB can arrange it that nobody will blow the whistle but they are getting away with it by having all those involved in decisions on their (liblabcon) side (such as the electoral commission ((that bunch of diehard remainers))who are supposed to ensure clean elections)
Then TBP has the complete UK media against it which will both ignore and no platform it apart from anything unpleasant which will be headline news.
The only people supporting TBP will be the electorate.
I’m UKIP but will lend my vote to TBP to get Brexit. I just hope the scale of a BP vote is too large for our bent system to cope with.
EG,
“….and other third world practices all happening.” As is said, ‘If you can’t beat them, join them’!
Still wedded to the, now outdated, concept of honesty and integrity in following the law, the UK British have not yet grasped the new reality where dishonest foreigners calling themselves, ‘British’ call the tune and impose their standards.
Sad to see the Dalai Lama has been brought to heel by the pc thought police after his (refreshingly) off-message bbc interview.
His office have issued a depressingly grovelling apology for his statements on women and migrants.
No doubt henceforth he will only utter ‘acceptable’ platitudes and perhaps one day al beeb will find it in their hearts to forgive him and to rehabilitate him.
Loads of ‘Re-training’ camps needed around the UK. I’m surprised the Muslim Council have not demanded them……..yet……
I’d take that with a pinch of salt, his PR team will want to smooth things over but that’s just his persona on the global stage.
One of the Dalai Lama’s responsibilities is giving empowerments and teachings on the Kalachakra tantra. He’s been doing it for 60+ years. This cycle of Buddhist teaching and practice does not speak favourably of particular invading ‘barbarian’ forces, who just happen to bear a striking resemblance to Muslims. So more than meets the eye for sure.
Jeremy Vine “The UK, where we have very cold skies”.
Typical world-wide temperatures at 40,000 feet are -40° C to -57° C.
Hint: Don’t stowaway on airliners.
P.S. J A-B babbling away, give them free tickets? Perhaps she could go back to Uganda, after all it is a republic. “They have no choice”. What? Evading airport security etc. Please send her back!

It doesn’t seem to be being treated with much seriousness – only fortune allowed the body to land in a garden and not cause physical damage apart from the innocent paving stone …
Once plod has identified the dead illegal there will be the normal sob story including a campaign to bring the entire extended family over for a state paid funeral . The airline must be made to pick up the tab for such a serious security breach and perhaps banned from the UK until it proves it is safe ….
Beats me what Yasmin Alibhai-Brown had to do with the story at all. She alleges that ‘these people’ have ‘no choice’ but to stowaway. Next she is saying that Africa is resource-rich and we should help them develop it. Isn’t what she calls exploitation when it suits he?
I think she and Lammy she replace Stacey Dooley and travel around Africa telling the Africans what a terrible place the UK is.
“We need a futile gesture at this stage of the immigration war, take a shufti, don’t come back!”
Someone stick her in a wheel bay please and dump her somewhere, anywhere so long as it’s far away.
Lammy again , he thinks turning their backs is “petty” …but he doesn’t think flying a Donald Trump in a nappy blimp is ?????? Strange.
‘A proud and open nation”?
I thought we were endemically racist and intolerant. Or could it be that he chops and changes to suit whatever gripe is on his to do list each day?
So, what he’s saying is…if you discount all the nasty white people then what you have left is a proud and open nation? But those left mostly seem quite intolerant and some even prepared to murder for more intolerance.
Whom exactly are the people that constitute this proud and open nation?
I give up…I can’t work it out… 🙁
You must do some time in a bbc / Common-Purpose re-education kampf, and all will become clear.
Did he think it was petty for the F***ing Lirerals to wear Stop Brexit and Boll*cks to brexit T shirts? Didn’t see any comment
And the EU isn’t a country and doesn’t have a bloody ‘national anthem’ unless they have made one up out of bits from all 27 countries..Lammy is a sad man..very sad
Gary Lineker not happy either … isn’t it funny how they do protest after protest after protest. Blimps, costumes, face paints etc etc … but they all think this protest is petty and childish. Yet again …..HYPOCRISY ALERT.
I’ll be honest. I thought it was rather juvenile but it certainly seems to have got under the skins of the right people and generated media coverage, which was perhaps the whole point. So what do I know?
They should have sung a different song. Something British perhaps.
How about “Rule Britannia” ?
Or has it been airbrushed out of The Last Night of the Proms yet?
Have to agree Roland. There is absolutely no need for the Brexit MEPs to make juvenile and petty gestures, that simply demeans them to the level of the LibDems and the EU. Their whole ethos is based on such trivia with Verhofstadt its personification – three years of spite, duplicity and invective are all the proof we need of that.
The referendum was our gesture and the Brexit Party its realisation. That’s the only point they need to make, and they make it by being there, all 28 of them.
What have they (we) got to lose? If the Former UK remains in, then the British MEPs will be a thorn in the side for the EU, at every opportunity. If the Former UK manages to exit, then they won’t be there at all, so in the meantime anything that conveys the contempt for the EU is fine by me.
OG you are right.
We are there as puppet representatives under sufferance of an enemy power. It’s no time to pose as old fashioned Brits to play up and play the game.
Show them up and cause trouble as much as possible, belittle the rubber-stamping job and the corrupt EU leaders as much as possible.
If Boris backslides and goes BRINO what else do we have to keep up the momentum that says LEAVE MEANS LEAVE?
It’s past the stage of ‘it’s not cricket dear boy’.
imnaly
“under sufferance of an enemy power”
Correct, but we seem to be in a minority recognising this.
The intention of the EU is to replace sovereign European states with regions in a socialist tyranny.
The intention of the EU is to import hundreds of millions of of ugly, unintelligent, criminally-inclined savages from Africa.
The EU leaders, despite their calm outward appearance, are terrified that when the UK leaves the EU it will be a success which will encourage other EU members to leave.
Then there’s this (what would Lammy and Lineker say?)
B@ll@cks is a swear word
so it is not proper to wear it on your clothes in a forum like parliament.
Stupid LibDems, haven’t they noticed the printing errors on those, cowardly, submissive yellow ‘T-shirts’?
They were meant to say “Stop! Brexit Now!” on the front and “Brexit is the Dogs Bollox” on the back.
Should have known better than to have ordered them via Der Unterfuhrer Verhofenstufen.

Plenty of yellow lard on show.
Snouts in the trough too frequently.
“childish”
when libmob throw labels, they are PROJECTING themselves.
