THE PREPOSTEROUS BOLLOX OF THE SITUATION

“I won’t pretend to understand the forces that led my neighbours to take to the street and smash and burn and hurt each other. I don’t think I know what “pure and simple criminality” is – presumably, it’s some imperceptible pollen that drifts through society and alights on people, which is awfully convenient for government because “pure and simple” criminality has no cause and therefore no one to blame and nothing that can be done to prevent it.”

Reblogging this from myself for all the people who have reposted it and took off the gif, or kept the gif and lost the link. Manners don’t cost anything. There’s a specific reason I linked to the Disney story and paired it with the Snow White “You’re a cunt,” gif. If you want the link to the Disney story without the profanity, make your own link post to the news story; if you like the profane gif, but don’t care about the Disney story, save the gif and post it separately.
