Today, and today only, she is amused.

I know the trope, but she was not like that. She probably loved sex more than any other figure from history, I refer to her steady brood increase when Albert was still alive. When deprived of Albert's attention she went on a permanent funk, so much that formal clothing since has been black since every visitor at court had to dress in black as long as she was in mourning. The fences and iron grating in london was also painted black during her mouring. Since that lasted to the end of her life this permanently changed formal clothing. Gone were the colorful costumes of the past and since then formal dress has been black.

Albert amused her so much that the only color you now found on well dressed men is their tie.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.
