2. You call everyone a POS but anyone who disagrees with you has to "watch their mouth." You're as much a snowflake as MAGA.
3. How will I ever go on without your nonstop boring sports takes?

Amazing turnout for #NoKings protest in South Bend IN! Impossible to capture the scope of the event in one photo. Peaceful protest with zero intervention from authorities (at least as far as I know).
Well done South Bend!
