Accuracy is improving it seems.
Failed leadership from a failed leader. How long can she remain in office?
How many more?

Obama and the NBA could save millions of lives. . .
. . .if they tweeted these items daily. . .

“Hey Kids!
Form families
Learn to read
Learn to pray
Do legal work
Do no harm to yourself or others.

JOIN CIVILIZATION. RAISE YOUR SONS!”

This is the path to human thriving.

(Lebron’s and Obama’s silence is violence.)

This is what happens when you have a mayor that looks and acts like a Chia Pet

One of the characteristics of fetal alcohol syndrome is eyes set far apart….just sayin

Per capita, you’re more likely to be injured or killed from being shot in Alabama than in any other state (including Illinois).

Do you also get upset about that, or does it not fit your narrative?

It’s good for the gene pool, so yeah, I’m good with Alabama thugs blowing each other away too.

Same tribe, different state.

The accuracy needs to get better!

When a gun is fired on it’s side, the sights are not utilized. Somebody needs to tell them so they can hit the person they are shooting at.
