Do I dare? A corruption of an old line but:

I can't stand the things posted by some family members on Facebook( I have only 12 friends on purpose. Want to keep it family only. I don't ever reply or like the posts from 2 in particular. Sick of seeing the posts in support of the current re-thugs!. Want to post the following. Maybe I'll be banned from the family.
