“Who needs science. “

Wondering how ISIS feels about Mr. hawking. I’m guessing that if in power they would unplug him asap. Push him and his wheel chair over the metaphorical cliff.

The entire EU is breaking up. As is the US. Get over it. The rulers of these unions turned into crooks. It is over.
