      I will continue to be a good moral person and anybody who advocates otherwise can suck my balls.

        Maybe we could source the blue-shelling of CEOs and when good people inevitably end up in the clink they could be welcomed as oppressed comrades and freedom fighters.

        An argument could be made that his actions are drawing attention to the Healthcare crisis and are worth millions in donations to any single facility.

        We all have opinions.

          His actions made no impact, so far. Are you expecting the more than half of Americans who voted for Trump and other Republicans to suddenly change their political identity?

          And you’re not supporting his cause if you send money to his commissary, you’re supporting the private prison system.

            This is incorrect, we’re all talking about it so it’s brought the conversation to the forefront if nothing else.

            Are you expecting the more than half of Americans who voted for Trump

            More than half of Americans didn’t vote for trump, roughly 1/3 did.

            Republicans to suddenly change their political identity.

            Republican don’t have a political identity to speak of except “No!” see also: Their current inability to even pass a budget they wrote.

            you’re not supporting his cause if you send money to his commissary, you’re supporting the private prison system.

            He’s being held at the Metro Detention Center in Brooklyn, it’s not a private prison.

            You’re so bad at this you have to be a troll, and not even a good one, sad.
