What a punk.
Which?
The Obama son line?

Yup, we knew it.
Black lives matter, honey, doncha know?
“Where you get your shoes?”
Guilty, now castrate and lock away for 50 years.
No excuse for such evil, even if it’s bad parents.
And he drools.
The Obama son line. You won.
Hope he gets 25 years but we’ll be lucky if he does 25 months.
I loath all the stupid Amish crap.
