I love Richard Warman, I really do. If Richard Warman was a wonderful
serial killer, I'd still love him. To hate him is illegal in Canada.
So I will therefore not hate him. He's a great man, a kind man, a man
of all seasons, a man who if I was married I'd let him fuck my wife, a
man who is greater than God, a man who is greater than Satan,
Beelzebub would flip out if he shook the hand of RW. God help us.
