Double arrest felony stolen cars… fentanyl pills… why did they let him go ?
Well ya know- He might get covid! He might get a runny nose and that is more important than keeping an armed thief from stealing peoples’ cars. Because…Justice! Just trust the professionals- they know what they’re doing, right? I mean they take and use our tax money so they must know what’s best, right?
Poor fella just needs some help, not to be punished. It’s 2021, get with the program.
Liberals courts and judges. Cause you know the Constitution be racist, bra. Even let the bad white boyz loose. Better than having to oppress him with evil policing. Welcome to the junta. This is your commie injustice system at work.
Its a shame you were born with the ability to communicate your opinions
Don’t worry, if the social justice warriors get the education “reform” they want then almost no one will learn to communicate effectively.
As long as they can chant slogans, scream into bullhorns, and post their cliches on Twitter, that’s enough for their purposes. Who needs to communicate when you can scream and throw things?
He wasn’t born with those abilities, he was taught them. Thank a teacher!
You can run…
Liberals are delusional
Boogly, boogly, boogly!
We call it “idealistic”. When it works, it’s no longer delusional. Enjoy Recovery with Joe.
