    The jacket looked white and gold to me.



    Seriously though, I'm looking for a translated version of the video, because that's too much. I'm not saying it's impossible to be true, and also it's really not any better if this is for an affair or something. But if it's really for the color of her jacket, it's just really disturbing that anyone could believe that there actually exists a set of beliefs that would consider that an applicable punishment.

    They are much, much more important than Democracy.

    Also, these periods of barbarism and anarchy are usually preceded by periods of complacency (no, that could never happen, peace and prosperity are things that last forever ), the kind of complacency that grows in a country which has only really been at war on its own soil a single time, and that was against itself. This is also why the spirit of liberty is strongest in a nation in the years directly following the revolution, when people's energies are greatest (i would say the spirit of 76 was the only thing that held North and South together in the many years before the North subsumed it).
    If you write a book I will worship it, my friend.
