Coloro che interrompe la conversazione intelligente si meritano di
essere tirati tramite le vie e di essere lapidati.

Basic translation:
those who disrupt intelligent conversation deserve to be pulled through the streets and stoned.

IL Duce, don't waste your time, I gave a warning earlier to Hassan and Otto is aware of the situation and will take action, so please refrain from giving your opinion to over 50 of his posts please..... ! I also mentioned this to Friedrich earlier.
