You can get away with about anything in the world other than hurting LGBT feelings. The West is run by soddomites.
Thank you. Proud to like Putin and values in Russia.
Why should “normies” have to accept the legitimization of Leftist sin?
The Left hate the truth.
They’re so fragile.
Let’s hope for Castreau’s sake the DEW Line is working.

Summoned? He should refuse to show up. Or show-up doubling down.
I think any Canadians who escape south seeking freedom should be welcomed.
