Most of the victims were in the life and knew what they were getting involved in. Yes, I know there were innocents but they were mistakes. At least the Italian Mafia, unlike others like the Russians, only killed/shot at other cosa nostra. Families were off limit.

If you preface the opening sentence with “according to close friends and family,” you do not need to add the word “allegedly.” See 1st sentence.

My aunt is a Buddhist nun in upstate NY. On their property, they have 5+ peacocks. They HATE the peacocks. Listening to them come up with Buddhist ways of saying “peacocks are assholes” is one of our family’s great pleasures.

Sure...we can always pay the poor to fight our wars, as we have since the Volunteer Army began.

I hate it. I let my admission lapse in 2000. After the Supreme Court issued their completely lawless decision giving the election to Bush, I swore I would never take part in the corrupt system again. If the very highest court in the land is a complete farce, the system is shit all the way down.

Dr. A.L. Gittleman, PhD, the “quack” went to Columbia. She is far from the only person who believes that electromagnetic fields could be dangerous. Her diet advice is very healthy. You should probably do some research before you make your proclamations.

I never implied that LV didn't care if their product was counterfeited. From a design perspective, the difference between the quality of an original and a knock-off is obvious to someone who appreciates (and can afford) an original. You can keep telling yourself you're the smart one, though. Have a good wank.

Some brands design and manufacture items of such superior quality that a knock off is hardly considered an offense. A Louis Vuitton replica is pretty obvious. A Yeezy pointy toed high top is low quality out of the shop. I would assume the Zara knock-off is superior quality. Not to be nitpicky; I had an ex that worked…

If you create something that is that easy to knock-off, then you deserve it.
