The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.
The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.
Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.
If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.
The loss of Wes Rucker is heartbreaking. Though many of us loved to poke fun at some of his opinions, he was still one of us. His wife Lauren is one of the kindest, most genuine people in this world and I am deeply saddened for her and their son. Rest easy, Wes.
All of these "right to carry" dipshits who have been screaming about tyranny for 100 years are suddenly weak scared little bootlicking fucks when confronted with actual tyranny.
