I was born under a dictatorship (that fortunately became again a democracy while I was still a child) and I can tell you human rights don't exist unless you have enough people willing and able to stand up for them. More broadly, laws a

I saw him live about 3 years ago, so he must have been over 70 already, and he was still great. He even joined us briefly at the pit. It was funny for me as I had gone through several hours of security compliance videos just that day, so th
