That’s what’s happening here. Apparently you’ve never been poor. And also, seriously, could you miss the point harder? Pissing in the wind indeed. ---

Do you disagree that a movie audience would be royally pissed off if someone stood up during the movie and started giving a speech? On _ **any** _ topic? 😕:smack: ---

On _ **any** _ topic? 😕:smack: Of course. Because the purpose of the movie theater is to watch a movie. And the purpose of the BBQ Pit is to commiserate with a liberal hypocrite who’s “100% against” death penalty for murderers and rapists, but is willing to consider it for some poor schlob who stole HIS bike. ---
