Don't let the government control you! Aglami is freedom! And since when do governments give money 
to people anyway? They don't give anything to me at least. They only take my money, them greedy 
bastards. Off with their heads!! Tsjakka! Oh wait...I shouldn't have said that, huh? Now they're gonna

And where would a evildoer most like to be? In a place where he's above 
suspicion. Those places then become the most dangerous places, so the
