      And if they make that argument, I’ll tell them that means they believe people are “guilty until proven innocent” and don’t deserve a trial by a jury of their peers, which is as unAmerican an idea as you can get.

          Trust me, I am in Indiana. I’m surrounded by these flag-waving morons. You call them unAmerican and they lose their shit. And all I have to do is pull up the Bill of Rights.

            I love getting called a liberal pussy by civilian clowns that have never served a day. Pretty sure the government trained me to kill.

      No, according to DJT, “very innocent”, which is as reassuring as “a little bit pregnant”.
