56. Will never understand why so many people here

Nov 2018

give the benefit of the doubt to these hate and racism promoters.

There is no bottom for these guys. HAVE WE NOT LEARNED THAT YET??? Really?

Everybody needs to be critical, skeptical first before leaping in defense of these rats.

So these protesters know soooo much about Carlson, where he lives etc, but didn't know what time his show airs? They didn't know he was not home?

Seems legit.
