114. I can tell you've been in the military
not just cause you said it, but because you will bow down and do what authority tells you - even though it is degrading, dehumanizing, an invasion of privacy, and presumes guilt - you have to prove yourself innocent. what fucking business of theirs is it if i want to smoke a joint on the weekend? NONE. so they have a right to tell us how to live our P R I V A T E lives too? but that's all fine and dandy with you right? Ugh.

Will you let them tell you what you can and can't eat too? How bout a War On Fat? this is wrong, and you know it, and if you don't, that's fucking sad bro. fucking sad.
