Tokenz: 120 ![]() | the craziest thing is the common fact that a clause in the new bush administration initiated patriot act deems anyone who breaks any US state law a terrorist. so if you live in Texas, and you own pliers you better look out before the terrorist police chuck you in a concentration camp. like these laws, bush is such a fucken joke. |
