Re: Deadly invasion at Aquarius Platinum mine
Check out this bull crap article writter for a socialist website
1 Peter 1
If you call on the Father, He judges without partiality, according to each one's work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your stay here in fear; knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot

"If they employ other people they won't be able to work either, we will stay here and kill them."
