Dear gunhumpers: This is NOT going to help your cause.

Posted on December 15, 2018 by Sabina Becker

And this is why the US of Amnesia can’t have nice things, like safe public schools where kids don’t get shot and killed: It’s because the NRA and its adherent gunhuggers, gunhumpers, gunwanks and conspiracy kooks think that the best … Continue reading →
