What could possibly be missing from those factual tales of successful retreat in VT, Germany, and the bowels of Amsterdam? Why children and vagina's of course. While the tales relate the actions of a solitary male the outcome cannot relate to similar situations where children and women and mothers are the potential victims. <-------------the entire statement is a WTF

and "Can there be any doubt my comment is being misinterpreted and taken completely out of context?" <------- I will experiment and toss the word VAGINA in a few work emails and see what happens.
