But will swear the 1st, 2nd and 3rd amendments apply to EVERY situation... 

That was awesome. It could have been even better is she didn’t spend so much time explaining herself and started yelling “goodbye” over their rationalizations a little sooner.

Imagine being so disconnected from reality that you can’t even imagine someone genuinely disliking Seth Rogen.

Man, if someone had just told the alt-right that oxygen supported Obama, they would have ceased breathing just to “own the libs.”

Y’know, I’m starting to think us white men might have it just a leeeeeetle easier than everyone else.
