I’m now thinking of becoming a Gang Member.
Where do I signup for the stipend?
(I promise to sign over the stipend to the FR fundraiser)

Why become one? Isn’t just identifying as a gang member sufficient?
Unless they demand proof.

The end goal is to destroy America. Paying criminals to be criminals is a sure way to reach that goal.
The left is obsessed with beating hard-working individuals into submission and with taking all the money earned by decent people and giving it to the dregs of failure.

They need it to stay in business.

I can. WHY do progressive liberals absolutely believe that everything they think(?) Up will absolutely work....until it doesn’t? And then ,because they never learn, come up with another hare brained scheme that is almost a clone of the one that DIDN’T work, expecting it will work. Isn’t there a word for that kind of thinking?

They’re playing 3D chess with them is all.
At the end of the year they’ll issue a 1099 on what they were paid. The city knows they aren’t going to declare it, that way they can go after them like Capone.
