In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human contact, the effects of the Free Hugs campaign became phenomenal.

Liberals always tell you to hug people. Then when you do you get hit for sexual harassment.

What this country really needs is a *Free Kick In The Ass* campaign.
There are a LOT of people that could use one. You wouldn't necessarily need

and give it to 'em. ;-)

I liked the video. There are a lot of people who could use a hug once in a while.

You're right about that.
