If you can stand the screeching succubus. We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity.

Prosecutor leads effort to test long-abandoned rape kits, brings justice to victims If you search online for "untested rape kits" you'll discover that it is a frequent occurrence which happens in many different places.

The purpose of buying precious metals is to prevent this. Americans used silver coins in the past as currency and they didn't need to exchange them for paper to buy stuff.
