    It's not a "rare example", it's the whole point of the leopard-eating-face thing. People support a political party and then react with shock when the party carries through with its promises in a way that hurts them.

    It's not news when someone votes for the leopard and then sits back smugly while the leopard eats the faces of other people.

    Your comment here is seriously making me rethink ever partaking in political discussion, let me just wrap my head around this for a second;

    So you think this guy deserved to kill himself or die because of some of his political beliefs? How are you better than they are exactly? Look at me, no tolerism bullshit or anything like that when I say this.

    Nobody deserves to die because of social issues or image.
