Oh you mean all the fascist Trump fans that rioted over the fact a rich guy that murdered his girlfriend was gonna be extradited?

I remember a couple years ago when the british judges finally left, I swear to god those colonial dickheads were all still wearing powdered wigs. Never has it been so obvious who the bad guys were that a toddler could point it out.
