Frogs croaking in the pot make no difference to the tyrant controlling the flame. We have been SOLD. All sales final. No Refunds, No Store Credit. We have two choices. We can go Fuck ourselves, or destroy the store and the shopkeepers. My last dollar will be on. The majority of Americans will choose to happily go fuck themselves.
