Retired journeyman pugilist. Can't fight that good fight anymore. Y'all made your choice - elected a bigoted mendacious demagogue. Y'all live with it.

I recall processing at AFEES on Balboa Dr. in Chicago.

Then arrest me first for unabashedly displaying a tattoo on my right wrist that shows my allegiance with the anti-fascist White Rose group, who, including Sophie Scholl, were guillotined for sharing anti-Nazi pamphlets.

Thanks a lot, you worm-brain riddled, unscientific, dangerous lunatic Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for making it so bureaucratically Kafkaesque difficult to get one of those new Covid-19 vaccinations, especially for us old folk! I was in line for at least four hours today to get one here in Georgia.
