Just keep your head low and stay out of the way, npc.

No need to be an unintended casualty, coward.

Just stay at home and blindfold yourself. Well freedom the place up for you, sweetie.

Maybe instead of fetishising over serial killing you could promote single payer and make an actual impact on the world.

We tried putting flowers into gun barrels in the 60's.

They went off anyway.

When we tried to pass single payer we came up 1 vote short, every single Republican voted no. They also voted no on protecting pre-existing conditions and expanding medicaid, which did pass.

Tbe American People saw this and came to the conclusion that they needed to elect more Republicans.

So, have we really tried? It doesn't seem like it to me.
