| Message | Well, I personally don't eat stick, but I don't have any problem with those do. I suppose I occaisionally foot, but only when I have a flat tire or some such. But the more important question, is why do you right wingers want to kill *people*? You know, let them starve, let them die of sickness for the sin of being poor. The situation isn't all that bad, but your morality is inexistant. |
