Yeah, ...I was going to tell them to question authority, but after seeing the place of discontent, I wouldn’t want to be responsible for anyone getting their head whacked off.

Our students, who have been spoiled by freedom and brain washed by Marxists, are going to learn the hard way what it's going to be like living under a communist government. .

In my country, students protest the government tyranny.
