Up next the evil pope tweet, pickles tweet oh and chelseas tweet condemning. Then obama. Who am I missing? They can all go p7ss up a rope.

I am so sick and tired of only 3% of the population shoving these mentally ill trans on us and having to pay for them to mutilate their bodies.

Let them all pay for it themselves and then move to ME, Mecca. I might even be willing to pay for them and then make them move to the ME.

I think these women who pose as men and women who want to serve in combat better understand if they are captured by Muslims in the mid east, they will wish over and over for a quick death instead of the long drawn out one accorded them.

The PC crowd will never admit that these weirdos are not normal and should not be in the military.

OK, name ONE heroic act? Just one. And getting a chopadickoffame operation doesn't count.
