but....
there is no way it is legal to cut off the head of a welshman in chester.
yes, it may be written somewhere in an obscure law nevertheless there are other contradictary laws that state that it is illegal to commit murder.

70 % proof - would this be guti hernandez from real by any chance? if not give us a decade to look at?

Which Chinese city is home to the Terracotta Army?
What did the North West Mounted Police become in 1920?
Who were Roberta, Phyllis and Peter collectively known as?
Which drink is named after the Ethiopian city of Kaffa?
