I hate that chubby women are being hailed as fancy glamour models. You know, there was a time that normal dudes could have a chance with a pretty chubby girl. Now they think they are hot stuff and won't give most guys the time of day.

ReplyDeleteThose protesting the detention centers at the border (calling them camps to associate them with concentration camps is right out of the Saul Alinsky playbook) should volunteer to take in a family or two, provide them with necessities, medical care, a place to live, and sustain them for the next year or so. In fact, there's a family at the border right now with tuberculosis. I just read there's a case of an illegal alien with mumps in Kansas. I am not saying they are all diseased, but let's see how welcoming these virtue-signalers are when they have to put up or shut up. We didn't invite these people here. Sorry, but when thousands come across the border, they may end up in a temporary holding center that is not very comfortable. What did they expect?
ReplyDelete^^Actually, we did invite them. Every time you do a line of coke, you invite refugees to come here. It's our demand for narcotics that fuels this stream of humanity.
ReplyDeleteThe Concentration Camps at the border will be Der Fuhrer's undoing.
Most people do not see them with eyes of hate like you & he.
I am poor. They are poor. They are my brothers & sisters, not you.
^^ Oh God what a sad story Byron. You are such a loser. If the Dems don't want people in these camps then why don't they warn them not to come here?
