Thank you Democrats for enabling these young scholars.
Thank you Democrats for wanting to let adults get away with crimes. What did they think would happen to kids?
But dummycrats, these are your targeted voters. They lie, cheat, and steal just like stupid old senile poopypants Joe has his whole life. Oh, I didn’t realize that these teenage dummycrat punk thugs are also using guns to commit their crimes. That’s what scares the hell out the ruling dummycrats, it’s the guns.
