Segregation is alive and well in the year 2020. But this time it’s not race that’s separating us, it’s ideas. And this time we’re doing it voluntarily. I’ve tried to have conversations with Liberals. It’s not fun. In fact, it’s quite painful. I like a good argument as much as

I’m always a bit confused when the media goes to Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton to get the viewpoint of the Black Community. Unless I’m mistaken, one or two people don’t speak for an entire race. In fact, they’re no more qualified to speak for all black people than I

All life isn’t precious. Maybe a more accurate statement is that all lives aren’t equally precious. Don’t get mad at me. I came to that conclusion by watching you. I’ll explain. The argument is that we should all wear masks and social distance because we need to prevent the spread
