I don’t drive an SUV but I guess the variation on Pastor Niemoller in Germany in the 1930’s would be “First They Came For The SUV’s...”

How did those enviro wackos get to those evil wealthy White suburbs? Did they walk? If not, they are hypocrites. Obviously no democrat city is ever going to prosecute their criminal actions.

FOX-4=Soros”News” has given the call,
and resident Potatohead has given the ‘green light’,
and the criminal courts have given their corrupt
... Seal of No Accountability.

Anarchy is coming and FOX-4=Soros”News” will be
in the lead, as it was for the ARIZONA-FOXnews-ELECTIONsteal.
