yourself and others validate not voting in 2016. listen to you tell US how exhausted and disappointed you are.

so really... cant we understand the frustration, you have with our dems?

hey... we are talking about girls lives. we are always talking about the oppressed.... so FUCKIN sick and tired. sick and tired of being sick and tired of discussing the ill treatment and deaths. and here are the oppressed, once again asking to be at the table. begging the fuckin populist on their fuckin high horse to PLEASE do not let the supreme crt go. cause that is all that we have, at this time

and what do the populist tell us. how immoral we are. just not having that purity on. why arent we as sick and tired as you all. why do we not also walk away. what is wrong with us

because.

it is the lives of our girls and boy. our sons being shot in the back. our girls taking a hanger to themselves.

so yes. i will take on the immoral role, the selfish role, .... of saying.... wont you fuckin populist let us social justice be a part of this campaign

when you tell me how tired you are, that you do not want to vote 2016? you are confirming what me and others KNOW. you do not give a flying fuck about the social justice issues.

economic. the god almighty $. is the only priority
