Per Gaertner, the tattoo on his left elbow is “Titan 2,” the symbol for his platoon while he fought in Afghanistan. The writing on his right arm is the Spartan Creed which is about protecting family and children.

I'd like to think that I remember important events in my life without tattooing them all over my body, but different strokes for different blokes.

And talks like Fred Rogers.

If you can see what the fuck is going on and still get out of bed in the morning and go to work for ICE you're a fucking Nazi enabler.

Decent people wouldn't be able to sleep if the organization they worked for was responsible for this TORTURE of young innocent children.

How fucking evil do you have to be to keep going to work for this fucked up fucktwit
