Something about not having to earn their way in life, or live in the real world, warps their worldview.
They looted Ugg boots.
They, do, know they are 25% white?
Both have volunteer mother. Oldest looks like obama and the younger looks like Mike.
Arrest them.
I really doubt if they participated in a BLM riot. There would be camera videos all over the internet. Plus I would hope that their parents wouldn’t allow it.
I never trust anything BO says.
News networks are pushing Obama as if he’s still President......because they can’t push Biden for obvious reasons...thus public perception is Obama’s still significant.
I was fairly certain I saw one of those beotches tossing a Molotov cocktail which was caught on tape at a “peaceful” DC rally a few months back.
Malaria and Sharia to Sec Serv officer: “hold my purse while I throw this”
There were some clueless blacks who were non-violent protestors at these events. Unfortunately, they were the minority.
