    With asshats like Chuck Schumer in office, what makes him think Saverin (and many others) *want* to come back? It's a little like a hotel manager banning you from his hotel after you complain about the fact that someone took a crap on the room's bed.

    Why are they safer in Luxembourg? A typical English football crowd could pwn their army, nick their Porsches and drain their wine cellars in about 15 minutes.

    Unless the Belgians came to their aid.

    Then it'd only take 10, drrrrrTISH.
