Don't be Caught With Half a Lemon...

If only they could grasp how damaging these stories are to the country we love...

"A Turkish prosecutor has demanded that a Kurdish man who is deaf, illiterate and unable to speak be jailed for 25 years for supporting terrorism.

Possession of a half-lemon was cited as evidence against Mehmet Tahir Ilhan. Lemon can ease the effects of tear gas".

Haven't they ever heard of Lemon Kurd?  Sounds innocent enough to me.
