A good performance, however, they edited out the anti-Islamic insults. I don't believe in editing history out of fear of terrorist attacks.

There's a guy in Russia, thinks he's God's rep, wants to take over Zapohrhizia, as we speak. Putin, you couldn't fight a hedgehog with thy naked ass! You don't have a squad! It's just you, Putin! Fuck thy mother!
