Reading your comment makes me feel a little better. I don't like to feel the need to hurt another human being. I don't like the burning sensation of anger. I only came back to this video to reply to you because you made me feel better. Watching these types of videos just boils my blood.

I truly believe that no human, no matter the ethnicity deserves to be treated like this. I believe the powers that be deserve to meet this fate tenfold.
