23. This is my country

Sun Oct 7, 2018, 02:50 AM

Oct 2018

I'm staying and fighting.

Let's say you leave for Canada or Western Europe, this is all well and good from a personal standpoint. But we still have the problem with the crazies running the asylum which happens to be the greatest country in the world. I don't think there is truly any getting away from it. The head idiot has already shown his displeasure to many of our allies on numerous occasions. If we are not here fighting what will stop him from taking the next step against our allies.

I'm staying anf fighting for a world I want to live in.
