And if he couldn’t answer then he is uniformed and can’t say it’s because you don’t like the 🍊🐖 ( sorry I just can’t write his name and use icons )

There’s a guy on Facebook who posts videos of him driving a motorcycle with a large fuck the 🍊🐖💩 and when magaloons confront him he asks them to name the three branches of our government rarely any of them can answer that question. And they storm off in anger much like the guy you talked with!
