@dangillmor this is violence. Imagine being a young person coming into a realization of your true self and seeing this. How horrifying it would be to know that you’re a target.

@dangillmor ok, well. She can go straight to hell, as far as I am concerned.

But....where do I buy a flame thrower?!?!? Gotta get one of those too.
