Yes, they took note where blood had run down from a leg ulcer;
then used the information to have some cunt kick me where they estimated the leg ulcer to be, while I was not carrying any painkillers. What a fine and noble religion we are dealing with.

had several people refuse to attend all, or attend particular,
pickets because they fear their wives and children will be attacked
or at least harassed at their home addresses.
