Are you serious?
Ok Hitler, thanks for your point of view.
Suffice it to say that you're 100% wrong here. I WOULD say that, but the State may deem that as doing you harm, perhaps emotionally, and hence a warrant would be issued for my immediate arrest and extermination.
Ho-le-****.
Of course they are a "deterrant".
btw, I LOVE You after-the-fact denouncement of teh Chick-Fil-A protest, and silence on Occupy (where real, meaningful harm was done, 10,000 times over).
It's thread like this that remind me why politics is so deeply fail.
Kinda like the Liberal Black Millitant who previously denoiunced every "birther" as a hateful racist, today (on 9/11) have a 9/11 Truther Show encouraging others to explore how G.W. Bush was behind and planned 9/11.
You're all a joke, frankly. Not a real, deeply held, non-hypocritical, non-party-based position amongst the god damn lot of you.
