@kubicek U nas si zlodeji pisu trestny zakonnik, nuz putin by si rad pisal vojenske a vyjednavacie konvencie.

(A ano, tym chcem naznacit, ze #SmerHlasMafia maju vela spolocneho s vrahom a vojnovym zlocincom. Aj ked niektori budu namietat, ze ti "nasi" "iba kradnu". Ale ja tvrdim, ze kedze kradnu zo statneho, tak o.i. zabijaju ludi v tom state.

Ale to uz som odbocil. Ano, ruzzko treba z Ukrajiny vykopat tak, aby ich presli chutky na dalsie zabijanie.)
