EU in action: Bottle cap retainers

A commenter notes:

> This was just a simple case of bureaucratic corruption. Someone with good political connections had a stake in a company that created this kind of bottle caps but nobody wanted to buy them. So they had a little talk with the politician friends, and lo and behold, suddenly it's mandatory to have these caps. And it takes at least a few months for manufacturers to adapt their own cap design, so for a few months everyone had to buy from that one company.
You could even tell easily because initially all caps had the same design, but now there's a different designed cap for many different brands as they've created their own.

Sounds likely.

I am sorry but there is NO OTHER WORD for these people other than…RETARDED.

They called these brave people sick and evil.

“Look at that…it’s all women lined up.”

Hey dip sheet…I’m not Muslim but I’m pretty sure women on one side and men on the other is about cultural mores and NOT using them as human shields.

Fox is NOT news…it’s deep state talking points for the low information …citizen.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
