It's such a sad state of affairs, my local next door forum is full of things like, headlines of people getting slap on the wrist punishments for sexual assault of a minor and then people responding with "this is what socialism is doing to this country".
Umm yeah, I'm sure mandami winning mayor in new york this year is why this bright red state, with a bright red state senate and bright red state house of representatives has had such lax laws that haven't been updated in 30 years.
Okay, but is it really Bright Red? What if there's an enormous fifth column of hidden leftists who are actually making things worse? Please consider that I don't actually like half the people in my government. And anyone I don't like is a Secret Socialist. While anyone I do like is red in tooth and claw fighting a Rambo-esque insurgency against armies of invisible tankies who want America to fail.
