Old Soviet joke for today:
A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.
After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”
“I’m looking for the obituaries.”
“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”
“Not the one I’m looking for.”

Two genders - male, and political.
Two religions - Christian, and political.

This is absolutely terrible news.

Here's a crazy idea.
How about the TV and movies industries stop glorifying gangsters. We all loved Wiseguys etc. I bet we wouldn't love them so much if we were the ones being preyed on.
Oh look... we are the ones being preyed on.
