Nice to see that the air marshals are so hard at work keeping us safe from everyone that isn't like them. I can't say I'm surprised by this though. It just goes to show that there really is no hope that the day will come when everyone is considered equal and no one is considered a lesser human simply for the way they look, live, or love.

pickle smokers. hahahahahah
our gang- not so funny(kinda lame)
creatures-?? Must be an inside thing.

This article gave me a good laugh, despite the bad taste.
