For anyone to pretend that the marauding hordes attached to the first Crusade were anything like pious, disciplined soldiers is laughable. The butchery they visited on civilian populations throughout their journey was horrific. But let's leave aside the Muslims for a moment. Was the extortion, terror, and murder they performed on European Jews during that Crusade also moral? I'm curious to know just how much a cretin you really are. You're offended by cussing but have no problem with mass murder?
Fucking cunt.

Asshole.
