Now he can spend the next 70-80 years of his life in a cell

Just what the country needs. More reasons for rural America to fear people they’ve never met.

Heroine + Cocaine

It’s not satire. Religious liberty bills work only if you have a ‘religion.’ It’s much harder to claim something violates your religious beliefs, if you don’t have religious beliefs.
