and respect and so do your parents. I agree with the reckoning ect, it's coming when we finally get that last insult. That ignornt person calling you lazy and a 'taker' is reflective of the mentality bred by rich rush, faux news and a host of other RW outposts spreading their lie. I'm with you in your bunker/foxholes. My animals/friends and I are losing the house in two months, underwater deeply because of divorce, forced out of a job and bad decisions by me. I'm looking for a foxhole here in michigan. Peace to you my friend.
