Would you take a look at the horsesh*t that just came into my inbox...!!

Needless to say, I expressed gratitude for enlightening me on immigrants... :sarcasm:

:wtf: :puke:

(This is where the email was forwarded to me....)

This is something that I agree with personally. Imagine having a drivers licence photo with your face covered. To me that defeats the purpose of having it in the first place. Silly Western Australia....
