Maraya1969

(23,417 posts) Sat Dec 27, 2025, 05:12 PM Saturday

I did something a little crazy the other day at the 7-Eleven [View all]

I saw they were selling those stupid masks that the professional thugs are wearing while kidnapping brown people in this country. There were about six of them so I just kind of took them and shoved them behind the. Metal shelf that they were hanging on.

I’d like to put a little slit and spray pepper spray in there, but I’m sure I would get caught and go to jail.
