"For I was a stranger, and you tear-gassed me."




For I was a stranger & you tear-gassed me I asked for asylum & you stole my children I fled violence in my country from your drug war & you called me 'illegal' But maybe the next time evangelicals vote they'll read the Gospels 1st instead of electing fucking Caligula Amen.

When my RW Catholic family starts bitching at Christmas, Imma use that.

As I told my elderly mother who used to be nice, I'm so glad Fox-Mommy didn't raise me!!!!

Started out as Democrats for Reagan (that paragon of family values) and morphed, with the help of Fox, into mouth breathing racist Repuke Trumpers. They dutifully attend mass every Sunday, but apparently feel that any reference to welcoming the stranger or being compassionate toward the poor doesn't apply to them.

My brother pretended to sympathize with me when I was alone that horrible election night but later I happened to see his anti-Hillary memes on Facebook. I didn't know since I rarely go on there.

My standard reply is I just follow Jesus (can't find Him on FB though unless it's Catholics for Social Justice .)
