I’d like to make fun of the French on this one, but the truth is that Leftists here in the U.S. wanna out law all sorts of “Hate Speech”.

Sickening,isn’t it?
The screaming “Me Too” banshees think they have something to worry about now,wait until these guys arrive.

So ....it’s okay to make funny of how short, or hairy they are? Or, how they smell of stinky cheese and cheap table wine?
Or that they need a shower or dental work?
Ah, so they have tackled all the deeply important issues, so that they turn their attentions to this.
lmao
So I can’t do my ‘Downeast Maine’ accent in France? Or a Bostonian accent, too?
“THIS is an outrage!”
