Once a hard core commie, always one.

How are we so different, with these mandible-clicking, dirty INSECTS running our country..?
I remember when this type of thing would make me shudder.

I read the whole article and it seems quite clearly to be about mohammedans and jihad.

They’re ruining the entire planet, their satanic belief system must be destroyed.

What goes on here in the US is a million times worse than anything I see described in the article.

Putin isn’t nice to mozlem jihadis.
“Our” president funds, supports and sides with them.

It’s one thing to have laws but anther to actually enforce them.
Bet Russia doesn’t have catch and release like US.

Anyone who thought that Putin was not headed toward totalitarianism is not living in a real brain.
