I'm so glad that these poor little snowflakes were not

around during the two World Wars or the Depression. Imagine the outrage of having to go without basic goods and materials or wait to purchase it you could fuel for you car/home heat because of the war effort and rationing. Imagine having to actually have to leave your family to fight a war. These poor babies can't go 4 weeks without a haircut or buying the ammo they need to "protect" themselves from GOD knows what. So sad and selfish.

Most of us are at home watching Netflix and having food delivered, but the sorry-ass protesters are suffering unbearably because they can't go to Denny's for brunch or get their nails done.

full blown Nazis. I can picture some of them wearing the death head of the SS proudly and when caught and tried for their war crime crying like a baby.

And to think that many of our sick and dying, are people that actually did those things. We have lost so many veterans of the previous wars to this virus. Yet these bozos cannot Netflix and chill to protect the country. That's all you have to do right now. Sit home, watch tv, play video games, social media or whatever the hell you like to do. You are not giving up life and limb.

He was given a gun and asked to go across the ocean and fight in a war. He was so scarred by that he rarely spoke of it and drank to numb the pain.

My dad was a disabled veteran, injured in action on the Vosges Mountains with 100th div, 3rd Army. Gramp worked 60 hours/week in a "War Plant". Gas and tire rationing were real.

Instead of having a leader to help people get through doing the right thing, their cult leader tells them to liberate.

Yeah, they're all babies, led by the biggest baby of all.

and of course, don't underestimate the amount of racism that permeated the fighting in the Pacific Theater of that war.

A few sick and dead Americans ain't no reason to deny some white folk of their rights, especially if most of the ones dying have an excess of melanin.

The last sentence is not the title or first sentence. Or maybe not. Irony is dead.
