20 September 2011 08:23127335what burgers are banned in france whatever next.
maybe its a good idea,but that depends on which side of the fence you stand on. - 20 September 2011 08:47127342What next? - they are banned public praying by muslims so I was told last week. Anyone know if that is true? a bold move by France if so. Not sure that this is exactly a good idea as it could create more problems than it solves.
