      Damn that’s aluminium, not steel. You can do that with an angle grinder, reciprocating saw, or even a mapp gas torch

        Killing nazis is also a crime. Both currently, and throughout nazi Germany. Do with that information what you will.

        It’s quite common to hear we’re living in a digital panopticon. See modern philosophers.
