    ^ Or maybe gods don't exist and it really is a hilarious mistranslation of a text that made no sense in the first place... Also @Spotswood, I'm not calling you ...

  • Serious Discussion and Debate Re: Ferguson case

    The fact that there's not even going to be a trial is the most damning thing of all. Only about 1 in 150,000 grand juries fail to indict, so the ...

    Did you not read my post SushiDog? Lgbt+ people are not murdered out of nowhere. People don't just randomly wake up one day and decide to bash a trans person. ...
