The peasants attacked and looted a manor house, killed the knight who lived there and roasted him on a spit while his wife and children watched. A dozen of the serfs raped the lady of the manor while the children watched, and then they forced her to eat the cooked flesh of her husband. Then they killed her. Now that is serious class warfare. Discussing whether the top one percent of the wealthy in this country should pay a higher tax rate is not, though I think the "French" treatment of a few dozen Wall Street chiefs and industrial chiefs would provide quicker results. Maybe the gov't should confiscate their 'proceeds of crime' and give it back to those they stole from... the aerage citizen. "Aerage" citizen mr. spelling ferret? |
