Letter_Have We All Gone MAD

April 19, 2023 by Staff Writer

Have We All Gone M.A.D.? I guess if I was to drink only a limited amount of strychnine that I wouldn’t die? Right? Guess that’s the same line of madness that our brain dead leaders in Washingotn are tell­ing us about a “limited” engagement of nuclear weapons with Russia. Hmm, I’m glad to know that… [Read More]

Letter_Government controls
