They charge him with a crime instead of giving him a civic award for making a valid point. Oh wait, they'd only do that if they wanted to work on correcting the problem he is pointing out.

Mortin has a well seasoned reply here:

Serves him right for not registering it as a Democrat.

If he had registered it as a Rat, there would have been no problem.

The dog would have been on welfare, MediCal, food stamps and enrolled in a Personal Self Worth Approval class. Then the rats would have sent one of their vans around to pick the dog up to vote several times in Kali. this November for Herr Davis.
