it is taking WAY too long for that to happen. Better educational conditions and societal conditions would have helped move better conditions along, but then, we got a leader that has set us back at least 100 years.
The INSANE are running the institution.

I'll stand up for his right to be a dumbass fuckhead in public too. I really will.
Of course I will also cheer with joy when these dumbass fuckheads get to enjoy the consequences of being dumbass fuckheads in public.

You know, like losing jobs, going viral so everyone know what they are, and a nice little conversation with the secret service.

How did I know he was going to look like that? Because they all seem to look like that. Middle-aged, pasty-white, fat, bloated, balding pigs. I hope he never works again.

The story itself is so disturbing and then there's the image itself. This country has gone insane and it starts from the top.

the racist, bottom-feeding trash in our society to suffer.

I want them to lose their careers and / or businesses.

I want them to face harsh public ridicule and rejection.

Maybe then they'll change their way of thinking, or just learn to keep their fucking mouths shut.
