Great example! “Jeff” is not a common name in Mexico and I moved here right when that series came out. When I would tell people my name, they’d say, “Oh, like Jeffrey Dahmer?” And I’d say, “Well not exactly like Jeffrey Dahmer…”

The Turkish government and its supporters bear the blame for these devastating consequences.

This is just insane … no words for such decisions…maybe he will get the answer in the next elections.

Yeah. I read today the opposition has finally decided on a single candidate for the next election. Another member told me privately that the government had outlawed one of the most effective private rescue charities because the leaders had expressed political opposition … so right when they needed it most, the help wasn’t available.

He should take a look to Jacinda Ardern in New Zealand and give way for a new, innovative and more modern . He always looks grey, old and strict, at least in German media.
