And I don't think that the fact that they are Italian has anything to do with it. No, alas, having large swathes of your brain covered in mildew is all too common across humanity as a whole. Thus, for example, one group of animal rights retards decided to target an Italian circus and "Set Free The Hippo One", a 1.5 ton behemeth called Aisha. Before this no doubt terrified beast went on a full rampage with the strong possibility that someone might well be injured by it, it ran out into a road and was promptly killed in a collision with a car.
Never mind, Aisha, at least you enjoyed your 2.75 minutes of freedom!
