He could also add satanism to porn in his new firewall. -- Too many emails?

Is complaining about government bureaucracy on Facebook incitement of dissatisfaction?

To give you an idea, Guinea where the government soldiers rounded up large segments of the population in 2009, put them in a stadium for mass beatings, public rapes, and killings, is ranked better in human rights than Gambia.
