You guys should really stop bringing up criminals, huh?

[GARY]

[Wombi]

I guess I'm talking to...America, about the fact that the numbers show that they breed law-breakers and it would seem prudent for them to stop...breaking the law.

[GARY]

[Wombi]

And what place did we come on the list?...103rd? huh, guess we learnt our lesson a long time ago. We're more law-abiding than Luxembourg!

And no GARY I didn't watch the video, but I did try just then (even though im in no way obliged too) but I can't on my phone. But the picture of the guy with the epicly sad face did make me laugh, hard.

[Wombi]

I'm sorry doesn't it cost quite a bit of money for someone to be in prison? I'm a little confused here.

[19loveless91]

Wow we're 173th on that list.

Our judicial system does not work well...
