38. don't discount this as satire

Mon Apr 6, 2015, 02:19 PM

Apr 2015

After all these years of racist Obama-bashing and all the rest of the foaming mouth rantings of this kind of people I am surprised anyone would think this is meant as satire. I am sure there are people who sincerely (if insanely) think this is the truth. If it were not for C-sections the odds are our two children would have died before they could be born as our first child did. And then our daughter turned out to have a similar physical condition which was caught in time because of our horrific experience. So now we have two happy, healthy and flourishing grandkids.

Does it make me less of a christian to say that if one of these clowns were to interfere with a C-section in my family I wouldn't mind putting one of their heavenly, God inspired bullets right between his/her eyes?

Oh, okay. If it does I guess I'll just have to live with it.

The day is coming when people like these will have to be put down.
