I just want to make it clear that it was *Border Patrol* agents who murdered Alex Pretti, and those fuckers murder people regularly here along the border.
Renee Good´s murderer is also a former Border Patrol agent (currently ICE).
Disband ALL the paramilitary groups and prosecute every member.

i don’t think i’d thrive in an orgy setting but i would go to a party where we all just moisturized each others hands

it is a bit like the NYT covering Hitler as a kind of goofy German eccentricity.
which is more or less how the NYT did in fact cover Hitler at the time.
it's not normal for Canadians. it's somewhat more normal for prime ministers, who tend to be shitty dudes. it's not okay, regardless.
