    Spain indeed owns guns. And bullets, too. According to OxFam, peaceful, liberal Spain is the largest exporter of ammunition for AK-47s in Sub-Saharan Africa, which fuels thos conflicts and child armies and all that other stuff that makes Africans want to go live in Europe in order to live on the export side of the arms trade rather than on the receiving end.

    Spain's goth daughters will declare war once it's discovered that Gordon Brown is bankrolling the Somalis as privateers.
    The good news for us is that twenty years hence, they'll provision three schooners, discover the Americas and, after slaying most of the indigenous people living here (enslaving the survivors), civilization will finally arrive. Tapas & House music for ALL!

    Thank you very much.

    Captain Morgan also comes to mind, especially as I've taken orders from him now and again.

    Note from the Olds: low-level piracy has been going on in the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea forever. You just don't read about it when the predators murder poor fishermen and Cambodian peasants.

    She sells Seychelles by the sea shore.
    The shells she sells are surely Seychelles.
    So if she sells shells on the seashore,
    Will she meet her demise at the business end of a black market AK-47?

    @mstryphnos: If you're going all medieval on their cute little black-clad asses, I think that, technically, they'd be Vandals. Visigoths usually wore pink, which is what made them so irritable. The Ostrogoths chose a nice creamy beige which complemented their skin tones but did tend to show dirt. The resultant need for constant laundering notably reduced their mililtary effectiveness.

    Is that a popular goth pose? The arms stick straight at the sides while leaning forward slightly?

    Don't get me wrong, I totally love them. I just think the photo is a good candidate for Awkward Family Photos.

    That's actually not as hard to be as it used to be - - now that the crusty old Francistas Fascists are dying off.

    p.s. their mother is kind of middle-age post-punk/goth and bow-legged to boot.
