Re: The Quota System
From my point of view this is not a troll thread, I’m genuinely interested assfly and _Os_ have made posts that really do further my understanding, unlike your response.

Not sure you know how any of this works, but it's often not spontaneous as Tichtheid has pointed out, it's organised group violence. Even a kid can see that, Bende...
