Ah, but guns are _good_ you see; it’s evil that Canada tries to restrict the Holy Gun from entering their nation.

If you think that is a big deal, replace Canada with Mexico to find an even bigger deal. US has flooded MX with weapons.

Also, not disagreeing with you at all.

Venezuelan’s are shocked, shocked!, that the guy they voted for did exactly what he said he would:

> **['Beyond betrayal.' Venezuelans in Florida are angry at Trump immigration policy](https://www.npr.org/2025/02/04/nx-s1-5285470/venezuelans-florida-tps-immigration-trump)**
>
> Trump's decision to remove Temporary Protected Status means more than 500,000 Venezuelans may be forced to leave the U.S. Venezuelan Americans, many of whom voted for Trump, call it a betrayal.

Maybe it goes in another thread, but if you voted for him, you enabled him.

As humorous at it seems, I doubt that trademark infringement is much of a bother to these knuckle-draggers.

Easily skirted, as well. All they need to do is call themselves The Pride Boys.

Or _The Proud Thugs_.

Or _The Proud Louts_.

Or _The Proud Oafs_.

All very descriptive.

Considering their stance on [masturbation, and masturbation-adjacent topics](https://www.businessinsider.com/proud-boys-inititiation-manual-details-no-wanks-masturbation-policy-2023-1), I would humbly suggest “The Prude Boys”.

This brings up a delightful image of some Gay Pride marchs I have attended.

I don’t really want to associate these two groups, but I know which one is exceptionally accepting, kind and generous to all. Including outsiders, such as myself.
