tribal violence is a terrible thing.
btt
Life in the large cities now are more like living in a jungle the only civility seen is leaving town.
How does a sentient being explain a democrat’s logic?
Chicago has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation.
Has it stopped the violence, bloodshed, killing? No.
And yet, the democrats are out there trying to turn the rest

Give us four years of the democrats no longer being able to
fix things. PLEASE!
2% fatality.
