You don't want to punish friends and people who do right.
I have NO problem, punishing those who promise and diss.

Air Force Boots Their 25 Million Dollar Aviator (He's Gay)

stupid, naive me.

I was so hoping, the power pigs would find a way to make profits AND do the right thing.

I LOVE this blog!

why lobby days matter.

For this my wife, my friends and I, both black and white, battled with police brutality, barbed wire and teargas? Meanwhile Adams and Parmon use any restroom, sit in any section of the movie house, ride in any part of the bus and drink from whatever water fountain they choose.
